Tankathon: Saints top 6 draft pick watch

Yep. It's going to be very difficult, if not impossible to get better than the #9 pick and probably can't get worse than the #11 pick. So the wins and loses in the next two games don't really matter much. I'd just like to see Rattler get at least some protection and have someone to throw to at WR and hope to see improvement. The best thing that could come from this terrible season is to see promise in Rattler in the next two games. If we don't, we really need to look hard at the QBs in this draft and even trade up if we think we are in range of a future franchise QB. Carr is an average QB, but regardless of how good you think he is at his age and in his contract situation, he isn't going to be our long term QB so we need to find one.

One interesting option is trying to trade for Malik Willis at Green Bay. Not sure how much Green Bay might want, but he seems to be a guy with potential.
I’m hoping the Saints go Wide Receiver, Guard, DT, and Safety or another IOL with their first 4 picks. First two has to be WR and Guard.

Offense desperately needs a top WR prospect who can put points on the board and step up when Olave and/or Shaheed are inevitably unavailable for extended periods.

Carr or Rattler really needs good interior OL preventing constant interior pressure so they can scan the field and get the ball out to open receivers.

I feel like the team can be competitive with anyone if the current QBs have offensive playmakers and interior OL protection. Those picks can give the team immediate improvement to at least stay in games next season.
