He's arguing to draft by far the better prospect as opposed to taking a less valuable prospect due to needs.
And Im saying the Saints don’t have the luxury of doing that. The team is desperate at certain positions specifically on the oline and dline. And drafting a BPA at TE and WR makes no sense. We have done nothing in free agency. The draft is the only way to improve this team. If the position you need isn’t graded as high then you trade down pick up assets and help your team.

This is never a true statement.

We have a 2nd round pick and free agency
Our team is fricked from bad drafting and bad cap management. There is no perfect solution.

Drafting the best player (where we also have a need) always makes sense.

And pass on a player valued much more highly than his draft position? We are much less likely to have that opportunity later.

Why? Worse case scenario is that we role out an offensive line similar to last year. Which was bad don’t get me wrong but is that going to completely fold the organization? No I don’t think so. However you do have an elite talent to build around moving forward.
