I understand there may be some mid-round cant pass up WRs but I've seen lists on here of our top 5 or so needs and people always seem to list WR. I'm just trying to understand why.

It can easily happen later when it comes to BPA. I'm fully convinced that's why we have Toon. He was 2nr Rd on talent but the injury issues knocked him down. Certainly he could prove to be another big score from the 4th Rd IF he can stay healthy. A big if.
Devery ain't getting younger. Morgan might end up solid but at this point is just a role player. Colston will be 30 next year. I'd like to see a speedster added to the mix if one came along BPA. I mocked Clyde Gates in 2011 and Chris Givens (the WF one) last year to the Saints as mid round types.
Need ranking scale now to me would be:
10- pass rushing DE
6- playmaking OLB
after that it gets purer BPA and we have to see how free agency sorts out.
Prolly the biggest unknown is LT. It could be re-sign the Bushdog, bring in a different veteran, or could it be a 1st Rd plug n play guy.
Of course DE & LB would also change drastically if they signed Osi, Avril, Michael Johnson, or Shaun Phillips types.

First off thanks for all the "Welcomes" and i appreciate the simple "no" and "no way"'s from yalls replies instead of the bashing ive seen.
The reason i went with Xavier Rhodes(FSU) 1st rd. is too many times i have seen Greer get man-handled at the line then burnt on the edges. This not a knock on Greer bc hes had much sucess with us but we've got be more physical and bigger on our corners. I understand "Predator" has given up some plays here n there but most of the time his opp. has to work to get open. With an improved pass rush from ANSAH(BYU)or WERNER(FSU) he will only get better.

If the value is there, I have no problem against taking one. We miss Robert Meachem and if he could be replaced, that would be dandy. HOWEVER, Defense and O-line really need to be addressed first.
