There are not 11 players in this draft better than Butler and it's a position of need for the Saints. That said, they would absolutely miss on a pass rusher which they can't afford to do


I'm glad you brought this up. The real question is, is there a team that would draft a 27 year old corner back, that will be matched up against #2 receivers more than #1's and will cost 13 million a year, in the first round?

Depends if that team is in Win-Now mode and needs players who can contribute immediately to make this team a playoff contender

That said CB wouldn't already have 3 years under his belt thus it would be ridiculous to give him 13 million a year. Butler is a proven commodity, the scenario you just made he would not be.
