Who will it be FA or draft?

Payton normally keeps 5 or 6 and we have 3 locks with Thomas, Sanders and Harris and Smith is in the his job to lose category (hopefully year 3 he puts it together.

1. Thomas
2. Sanders
3. Smith
4. Someone to compete with Smith
5. Harris
6. Hogan, Butler, Humphrey or ???

Does the team still target a WR at 24 or with Sanders signed wait till later in the draft?

I hope we get a WR in the 4th.

 

[Trey W.]

If Sean thinks a WR is BPA when #24 comes around he’ll go with it. As much as I’d love a WR I feel a LB or OT is going to fall that have better value

It could depend on what goes on between picks 1-23. If there’s a willing trade partner out there, you know the Saints will trade up. I think the “BPA” strategy is likely now that Sanders is in the fold. And I’m back and forth in my mind on whether it should be LB or WR. Can’t lose either way, really, especially if we can move up cheaply.

We absolutely need another WR who can play. I would not count on TQS. If he rounds in to form, fine. I’ll believe it when I see it. Until then we need more options. And we need to remember that Sanders is 33. He’s not here for the long haul.

 

[So_$@int Silly]

Does anybody know what picks we have? All i know is #24 in the first round

 

[NewOrleansBoy]

I feel an elite LB is the choice.

A close second choice would be DE. Remember, we don’t know if Davenport can fully stay healthy due a career-nagging injury and Cam isn’t getting any younger

Third choice would be CB or WR for extra depth

Now, if we somehow get Clay Mathews (Pro Bowler; had more sacks than all of our LBs minus Davis combined) and Everson Griffen, then we’d truly be in a position to draft the BPA

 

[Deucewildin]

1.Jefferson
2. Perriman On a 1 or 2 year deal

I’ll take both please Or either

 

[SCWhoDat]

Tee Higgins

I'm not judging the quality, but we do have quantity under contract. Here are the 10 WR's under contract:

Michael Thomas
Emmanuel Sanders
Tre’Quan Smith
Deonte Harris
Lil’Jordan Humphrey
Emmanuel Butler
Krishawn Hogan
Maurice Harris
Tommylee Lewis
Tim White

 

[SRAddict]

Holding out hope the market for Robby Anderson dries up and we can get him cheap

 

[rlemieux]

Honestly hoping for one of the three, Perriman, Anderson or Cooks.

 

[NOFALCONS10]

An elite athlete at wr will certainly be available at 24 and will assuredly be BPA.

I think this is the best wr draft since 1996.

No linebacker is as good as any of the top 5 wrs.

It's not even close.


The only position i would potentially pass up a wr in rd 1 for is QB or DE.

Cooks wanted out MT’s rookie year because he saw how great MT was. If Cooks didn’t want to be in MT’s shadow then, I don’t see him wanting to live in the darkness under MT now.

Even worse is Cooks was never #1 quality when he was here.

Brees has always needed bigger guys like Colston and MT to play that role in consistently fighting for tough yards
