1(8). Derek Barnett, DE, Tennessee
The Saints need help on every level of their defense. That includes the front line, where Cameron Jordan is the only edge player who can consistently generate pressure on the opposing quarterback. Jordan is actually having an All-Pro-caliber year, but New Orleans has to add a potent player across from him to rattle Matt Ryan, Cam Newton and Jameis Winston. Derek Barnett, who has enjoyed a prolific 2016 campaign, would project to generate a great pass rush.

2. Raekwon McMillan, LB, Ohio State
I still can't believe the Saints signed James Laurinaitis. Did they not watch how horrible he was for the Rams? Seriously, what were they thinking?

3. Jamar Summers, CB, Connecticut
When the Saints released Keenan Lewis in the offseason, it was pretty evident that they would have issues at cornerback this season, and that has turned out to be the case. They need an upgrade across from Delvin Breaux so they can stop starting the likes of B.W. Webb.

We're so desperate for a vocal leader defensively (ones that actually plays)...

they thought, how can we help our D since Anthony is a liability in our eyes?

dude.. lets go get Laurinaitis!!

we can sell the fact we needed a veteran LB all along.

Anthony just needs more time to develop.

we'll pick a corner in Round 1 next year anyway!

We're good!

Barnett-Rankins-Fairley-Jordan up front with Kikaha healthy to rush the passer?

Any combination of DE, LB, and CB in the first three rounds is a win and a must. Use free agency to shore up the o line and grab some veteran depth, especially at cornerback
