re: I'm Getting Concerned About The Draft

The truth is the Saints don't have that many holes. If they can get 2-3 of the better players in the draft, it is a success.

I agree there aren't that many spots open. The problem is that it looks like the QBs won't be coming off the board early and that will eat up CBs and WRs before #27. I don't think there will be too many teams wanting to drop to our spot without a ton of picks in the mix (the trade charts may not be a good barometer of what it will take to make a trade up in our case).

Bill Polian was on the NFL radio channel just a few minutes ago and said it's tough moving up in a draft when you're towards the bottom...unless you want to give up "a bunch of picks". He's convinced that a starting WR can be found in 2nd round; he's not sure the same could be said about CB.

Last point, Polian thinks Mosley will go in the first 12 picks..."only 3 down ILB in the draft".
