TE Tyler Warren as Saints 1st pick?

Why would the Saints use a first round pick on a TE when there are glaring needs at Guard, DT, DE, LB and S?

Because the offense doesn't work unless you have a versatile weapon you can move around. Once Hill goes down the motion in our offense is meaningless. When Dude off the Street #3 motions no one needs to cover him so it does nothing. I don't know if there anyone worth picking that high in this draft class but Bowers or Laporta from past years would have made our offense work much better.
