every one of these will be traded to move back up into 3rd or early 4th round, bank on it

THE FO doesnt understand the slightest concept of not trading away most of its picks

What a waste of time deciding who we pick with our 3 5th rounders when those are assuredly going to be packaged for a late 4th

May be one of those not super exciting but good drafts

Disagree. I think we keep 1 or2 5ths and 1 6th.
The % chance of 5-7 round picks making a team are slim to none. So why keep any? In case a player they had ranked higher in the 3rd or 4th falls to them in later rounds. But the one thing that I've learned about Saints drafts is they never do what I expect.

don't know why you aren't already mentally prepared for it. I'm always fine moving later pics to get into the 3-4 rounds. Everyone should be. Like was said, it's a very low percent chance you're drafting impact starters or even great rotational guys late. It's not impossible to get those late round gems, just very low probabilities. Sometimes those late round potential guys take years in the league to make an impact/name for themselves

I really like Cooper in the 2nd. Hoping he’s who we take in the 2nd. There’s been talk of Fashanu sliding in the draft, so I’d be happy with these two picks.

And you don’t understand the concept of roster management and cap space if you think it’s a good idea to have $6 million locked up in 5-6th round picks that won’t make the team

Hard to imagine us not drafting a receiver at all.

with this draft being so deep at tackle, we should probably double dip

I’m very interested in Logan Lee. What position is he projected to play? He’s like 6’5 280

Actually like the 1st 2 picks a lot, but I believe others who think Saints trade entire bottom of draft are right

All 4 5th rounders is worth 100 points. Washington’s last pick in the 3rd is 100 points.

I’d rather keep the picks.

That's nice and all, but the Saints aren't going to.

Those picks are getting traded for a move up.
