The Saints have always had success with mid round OL draft picks


They've hit on ONE find. This is a very reckless way of looking at building a team IMO. They've also sucked for the most part at drafting defensive players and deciding who the want to give big contracts too. Every situation is different and the sample sizes are too small to make generalizations on.

Eta:see that this was covered. Sorry.

You've actually added the great point that we have recently been poor at drafting defensive talent at the top. Jordan may be the first long time great player they've hit on in forever. And that's still an if(that I think will come true).

So saying we should just draft a lineman in the mid rounds because of history(that is false) and then saying we should draft a defensive player while ignoring history is looney.

I'll echo, "Every situation is different and the sample sizes are too small to make generalizations on."
