They're really trying to bolster the pass defense. Anthony can rush from the middle on passing downs, add the sack guy from Wash,and Williams who's a tweener, Also , they signed that DB from the CFL who's supposed to be really good at shutting down slot receivers.

Kihaka and Brandon Cooks are the best picks of the past two years.

The Saints addressed a lot of positions I wanted them to address with quality talent: ILB, OLB (pass rusher), NB/4thCB. They've also solidified the future at OT and QB.

They still need to address OG (Hopefully with La'el). Our OL would be one of the best in the NFL.

I'm not that concerned about WR considering the last 4 Super Bowl winners had arguably no star-studded WR corps. Not a Calvin Johnson or ODBjr among them. Mostly, a bunch of chain-movers.

The vibe I get in my B&G colored glasses:
-Peat could easily have an All-pro year one day.
-Anthony has Pro-Bowl potential. London Fletcher-like production.
-Kikaha has sleeper All-Pro potential, like a Terrell Suggs.
-Grayson could have a surprising/unexpected Marc Bulger-like career.
-PJ Williams will bring the run-support tackling from the secondary we've really missed since Roman Harper...and the same coverage frustrations. LOL. May even move to safety one day.

Could be Payton's best draft, or at the very least, the best one since 2006.

Plus we could still pick up a decent WR, D-lineman, or G. People won't realize how good this draft is for a while because it's not flashy, but we added much needed players while still drafting BPA.

Only two guys had double digit sacks the last two years in the fbs. Atlanta has one and we have the other. I'm willing to bet that even if he isn't as good of a pass rusher (yet to be seen) he will definitely be better in the run game and pass coverage.
