So do we agree that secondary has to be a high priority again in next year's draft?

KV may be gone, and if not, just inconsistent. Breaux may never be what he was. Crawley can be good but PI waiting to happen. Losing Lattimore really exposes how weak this unit still is without him.


I think Crawley will be a good opposite of Lattimore in the years to come, so I'm thinking SS is a must.




I mean, other than a playmaker at receiver.

This team still has some glaring holes and that is one of them

CB, DL, LB, WR

Lattimore/Crawley are set as your top 2 guys. We still have Breaux likely to return and Williams is a very solid 3rd option. I don't see having to go high in the draft or spend big money unless Vaccaro walks. This defense has always played better in 3 safety looks.

WR, LB, and potentially another pass rusher are biggest needs.

i think it will be more important to keep them healthy. We have really nice young guys in the secondary in Lattimore, Crawley, Bell and Williams. Very promising group.

BPA for sure. Emphasis on a DE or a CB/S

I hope we do not waste a big money contact on Vaccaro.

I got all down votes during the NFL Draft 2nd round thread for suggesting the Saints take Colorado CB Chidobe Awuzie as insurance for Breaux and/or Lattimore missing games considering both their injury history.

PFF recently listed him as the 3rd highest graded rookie CB behind Lattimore & White, and seeing that missed opportunity stung a bit.

Although it would have meant passing up Marcus Williams who has been solid.

This. This makes me sad. Imagine 2015 Breaux with Lattimore and Crawley

There will be a lot of FA WRs hitting the market. Get one of them and draft CB & TE early and LB, DL, OL late with an eye out for a QB.

We have a lot of holes.

Assuming our team is 100% healthy, WR stands out as the weakest link outside of MT13.

Assuming we're banged up (like we are now), we definitely need CB help. We cannot afford to move forward with Harris next season, but he's an Allen/Glenn guy like most have mentioned.

I think defense is more important for us (even though our offense looks so weak without reliable WRs).

CB, WR, DE, LB, OL is my order right now.

No, when Healthy we have some really solid guys. Just need to keep Moore and cut Harris.

Unger's replacement will have to wait until the 2019 draft. Right now we need athleticism at LB. I'd say we draft 2. We also need some DL and WR help. Mainly more speed and another DT.


1st: LB
3rd: WR
4: LB
5:DT

We have bell and he proved these last couple of games he's an absolute enforcer! He also has the ability to cover. As far as a receiver, we need another ted ginn type reciever to help stretch these defenses. Ill take a corner in the 3rd or move up a 3yr starter type 6'1 corner strong and fast!

We better be looking for a LT. Armstead just can't stay healthy.

I feel like unless you're BB and the patriots secondaries are ALWAYS a continuous work in progress.

Even Seattle had a truly dominant one for what 2 maybe 3 years?
