Keep our current pick at 11 and draft Solomon Thomas / Derek Barnett or trade back and grab a player like Hasson Reddick and acquire another draft pick?

Trade back all day. 2 defenders and a guard in 1st 2 rounds

We've proven we do better with picks not in the first round. So yes, I'd rather trade back and get more in return.

I'm willing to bet we draft Barnett or Thomas. Then the front office will trade back up to get McCaffrey in the late first or early second

Saints need to trade completely out of the 1st round and get as many 2nd round picks as they can. They can address many needs in the 2nd round. They could get a CB, Edge Rusher and maybe a Guard in the 2nd.
Saints have had too many needs to trade up the past 3 years.

Personally, I'd take Thomas, Barnett, or Charlton at #11. We're going to have plenty of money to buy some free agents and we're not going to have many roster spots available b/c of this. I doubt we trade back, but I wouldn't be surprised if we traded up into the late 2nd round like last year to take a player that falls(Vonn Bell)...giving up our 3rd & 4th rounder to do so. You know the Patriots will take that trade all day.

This roster actually has pretty good depth besides RB(even if we re-sign Hightower) & OL(Kelemete being the only 1 that can be trusted). We lack starters at OG, DE, LB, & CB. Also Safety if we cut Byrd.

Between F.A. & our top 3 picks...we should be able to add 7 pieces easily: RB, 2 OL, DE(maybe even 2 if Kikaha, Edebali, Kruger, & Tapp don't work out), LB, CB, & maybe a Safety.
