And just what did they start with ??? St Brown was a 4th rd pick and he's their best WR. And when you have the #12,18,34,45,68,and 96 in ONE draft you can make picks like that when you have already spent high picks on your OL and DL
How about this? Let's say the Saints do as some say and build the trenches first and ignore premium positions till they've built that up first. But then they are picking in the teens and have to trade up to where they are now. Why not just get those premium guys now that the Saints already have a top 10 draft pick. There's no way to build a Superbowl roster in 1 year. If you have a chance to get a good player, you get him because you may not have as good of an option in next year's draft.
