This. The Saints could not move down, knowing the 49ers wanted a safety. I find it amazing no one covering the NFL draft is having a meltdown about the Saints pick except the idiot Saints fans who have no idea what they're talking about.

Which is exactly why they traded up once 1 safety was gone.

49ers only gave up pick 31 and pick 74 to move up to 18. Not a good trade for Cowboys. Glad Saints didn't make that one.

Jesus fricking Christ. Almost speechless that you dont think vaccaro being taken off the board was the cause to move up.

No fricking way the niners move up there to get a safety if vaccaro was still on the board.

They wanted one of the two and the saints made them pull their card. I isn't the the miners wanted to pick the second safety in the middle of the first round and have to move u to do it.

safeties are cheap in FA and there are a ton of safeties in this draft

safety is a devalued position, as long as your front office doesn't suck at evaluating DBs (like the saints)
