No doubt Lane Johnson would be a solid pick at 15, but trading up to get him is dumb. The Saints have always had success with mid round OL draft picks.

They hit on one gem(Evans) and one guy that fell from the 1st round because of character issues(Nicks). Strief has been solid for a 7th rounder but not a great player. Bushrod played like a mid rounder so that's not a success, it's breaking even. Tennant was a bust, Brown is on his way(as a 2nd rounder no less), and nobody even remembers Andy Allemen.
Are there any LTs that will fall because of character issues(Nicks)? If not there is no reason to think we will just pull another rabbit(Evans) out of our arse.
@St. Aug, I completely agree we do not need a project at OLB. Jones is the only one I see them taking.

They've hit on ONE find. This is a very reckless way of looking at building a team IMO. They've also sucked for the most part at drafting defensive players and deciding who the want to give big contracts too. Every situation is different and the sample sizes are too small to make generalizations on.
Eta:see that this was covered. Sorry.
