re: Positions drafted in 1st RD by Saints that would anger you

Besides the obvious ones like K, P, LS, and FB, I would say RB and S.
We are overflowing with talent at safety and there are no running backs remotely worth a first rounder this year.
Positions like OT or QB would just be about value. If Bridgewater falls, the team should take him because if he works out, then in a few years you don't worry about the pressure of bringing in a rookie and the team doesn't hit a wall.
As for OT, Strief is getting older, Armstead is still relatively unproven, and those guys can usually make the move to guard.
My first pick would still probably be Kyle Fuller.

I'm also completely sold on Armstead. The difference between him and Brown was staggering and Armstead faced some of the tougher lines in his stretch. He struggled for 1 half against Hardy and Johnson, made half time adjustments, and came out and played extremely well since.
But I do like your point about either the rookie or one of the vets sliding over to guard. We definitely need to shed some money there and get younger. If they have and OT they think can play guard or an OG sitting there and the OT is rated a good bit higher, take the OT.
Good call.
