27. New Orleans Saints
The Pick: EDGE Arden Key, LSU

The New Orleans Saints nailed last year's draft by selecting immediate impacts in Marshon Lattimore, Ryan Ramczyk, Alvin Kamara and Marcus Williams as the team made a return to the playoffs. To get to a Super Bowl, general manager Mickey Loomis and Co. must continue adding pieces to a team that's expected to return quarterback Drew Brees.

LSU's Arden Key has top-10 talent but missed time to injuries in 2017 and took an absence from the team last spring. If teams are comfortable with his medicals and his character, Key can be a premium pass-rusher with the frame to add weight (he came in at 238 pounds at the combine) and still win with speed and length on the corner.
