re: If Saints get the #5 pick...

Who do you like at 5 that won't be there at 12?

damn good question, once you get passed the 1-4 picks I think things tighten up with the talent to where you cant really say its a huge drop off from 5-12

lets go with crazy and say we have #5, im of the opinion it might be better to deal it for more picks before I take somebody at that spot. sure you pass a guy that people like, and the ST board would certainly go insane, but the extra picks you gain from that can make the difference in if you get to the playoffs next year and can seriously compete, or struggle and still be rebuilding next year.

that said it all depends on who is there at #5 and how desperately would we need that player. if he was a player expected to have been gone at pick 2 or 3, well that's different
