The only way I see us getting a safety in the 3rd is if we trade back...How in the hell can you say in any realm of reality that safety is more important than OLB or LT going into this year's draft?
By the time you get to the #75 range the need factor is much eclipsed by value. The later the round the more it is BPA.
Very few put safety as the top need. But again, say a #65 on your big board safety and a #85 overall 3-4OLB are there. Who do you take? Not you, but the Saints have a clear history on plucking BPAs regardless of need.

I agree with you there, but the need at LT is going to be quite apparent when the season starts and Brees can't stand in the pocket long enough to say one-two-mississippi.
I think the FA signings were good so far. I was disappointed they didn't release Vilma or Smith to get extra cap space for one of the FA tackles. I'm not saying they can't get one, but LT is one of the best leveraged positions in the NFL and the clock is ticking.
