and you were the Saints GM, who would be your pick?

I'd be happy with either DE DaQuan Bowers, DT Nick Fairley, or DT Marcel Dareus.

I know there are supposedly some questions about Fairley's character, but he was the most dominant college DL I saw this year. I'd take the gamble on greatness.

My pick would be Nick Fairley.

That'd be my choice. Deep as hell D-line class and we need more help at LB.

Trade it to whoever was willing to take it for whatever we could get, not picky at all.

Trade down a few spots to get Von Miller, while also getting a 2nd/3rd round pick.

Gonna get his fat arse whipped if he tries any of his dirty crap at the next level. He's going against the big boys now, they don't play when somebody's messing w/ their livelihood.

Definitely PP7. I say trade away all our draft picks to make it happen!

But it is close. You should always take a dominant dlineman over a corner. A dlineman can affect every play that he is on the field. A corner can't.

Patrick Peterson! And that is not a bias LSU fan talking. He is a legit pick at #1!

Absolutely. More depth in the secondary is always great. Porter, Greer, PP7, & P Rob at CB and Jenkins & Harper at S would be ridiculous.

Bowers would be my second choice.

ridiculous is an understatement not much into cap management I spose

I'd go Quinn for a straight pick.

Better, trade back to NE #17. You would get at least #28, 33, & 60 + in addition per the draft pick value chart. Of course they wouldn't but they're one of the few teams with enough firepower to do such a trade.

Bills #3, 34, & 68?

Easy to see why it's so hard to make a trade down work.

I'd pick Fairly. And then act surprised when he chokes someone out.
