The 49ers did get the Saints’ fifth-round pick from the Saints as part of the Kwon Alexander trade. That was conditional based upon playing time
Btw, the 5th round pick is for this year

Well worth it. We should bring him back on a 1 year deal.

Exactly, at least a year. It’s not like he’s gonna pick up in game 1 where he left off last season.

Yes it will take a year to heal but I would do the deal anyway and maybe he misses the first 4 games but i would be good with that if the price is right. Compared to the other free agent options out there I’ll take Kwon at 85% over anyone that’s out there. This could be a prime spot we see them make a trade. One of those 3rd rounders or a 4th could fetch starting LB in the right situation.

This defense would be the absolute perfect fit for Jabrill Cox.

Agreed. What round is he being mocked in? I assume it's the 2nd or 3rd.
He's a good all around LB that can probably be trusted in pass coverage in the NFL.

They get a 5th for a few games
We Get a 7th for 2 years

It should have been if he lasts the season, you get it. If he's hurt you don't.

Can he play QB
Posted on 3/19/21 at 8:31 pm to L.A.
a 5th for Kwon was a steal in terms of his talent and I can live with the risk of what happened with him getting hurt. He was an expiring deal basically so it was worth a shot and he was worth what he provided the defense when he was on the field.
much better than the days of us backing up the brinks truck to sign Coby Fleener, Jarius Byrd, or Junior Galette and cap fricking ourselves for years

He is the best coverage LB in the draft and it’s not really that close. He could have played safety or nickel just as easily as LB.

What’s our draft picks at the moment

Full order of Saints picks in 2021 NFL draft
The NFL finally shared its full order of selections in the 2021 NFL draft on Friday, and it brings great news for the New Orleans Saints. It’s possible the league reverses course, but the current list of draft picks in all seven rounds includes the selection New Orleans was previously reported to have forfeited due to COVID-19 protocol violations. The Las Vegas Raiders were similarly penalized with a lost late-round draft pick, but it was apparently returned to them.
This could be an oversight by the league office. But it’s worth noting that the Minnesota Vikings are listed as forfeiting a seventh round draft choice due to league discipline for salary cap compliance issues, so you would think the NFL would list every other forfeited pick if there were any. So keep your fingers crossed that the Saints will have their additional seventh rounder in hand on draft day, barring an update from the league.
With that said: here are all of the Saints draft picks for 2021 as it currently stands, including compensatory selections and trade acquisitions.
Round 1, Pick 28
Round 2, Pick 60
Round 3, Pick 98 (compensatory, quarterback Teddy Bridgewater)
Round 3, Pick 105 (compensatory, vice president Terry Fontenot)
Round 4, Pick 133
Round 6, Pick 218 (compensatory, linebacker A.J. Klein)
Round 7, Pick 229 (trade, nose tackle Malcom Brown to Jacksonville Jaguars)
Round 7, Pick 255
The Saints are without their own picks in the third (traded last year to acquire linebacker Zack Baun), fifth (swapped for linebacker Kwon Alexander), and sixth rounds (exchanged to poach quarterback Tommy Stevens from the Carolina Panthers) due to previous moves, and we should expect more maneuvering from New Orleans given their aggressive history.
It’s worth noting the seventh rounder they got from Jacksonville was the more valuable of the Jaguars’ two picks in the final round, as it is the first selection in that round as opposed to their other choice at No. 249, 10 slots ahead of the draft’s final pick, “Mr. Irrelevant.”
So there’s a couple feathers for your cap. If the Saints hold onto all eight of these selections, it would be tied with 2006 for the second-most picks they’ve ever used in one draft class with Sean Payton calling the shots, behind 2015 (nine picks). Their four picks in the top 105 selections are tied with 2011 for the most behind 2017 (six) and 2015 (five), though 2007’s draft came close (running back Antonio Pittman was selected at No. 108).

Found another article that says the Saints might be keeping their original 7th rounder that was supposed to be taken away for breaking a COVID rule LINK
The Saints also have their original seventh-round pick, No. 255.
The Saints were reportedly docked that draft pick after they celebrated their November win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers while not wearing masks, but the selection still appears on the league's draft manifest.
The Las Vegas Raiders also appear to have their sixth-round draft pick, which had also been reportedly stripped after they had their own run in with violations of the NFL's COVID-19 protocols. That pick in question is selection No. 200.
Only two teams, as noted on the list of draft picks, had to forfeit selections: the New England Patriots and the Minnesota Vikings.
The Patriots were docked their third-round pick after they were caught videotaping a game between the Cincinnati Bengals and the Cleveland Browns. The Vikings had to surrender their seventh round pick because of a salary cap violation.

Good. It was a ridiculous penalty for not having a set penalty in place to begin with.
Likely every single team was doing it and they were all tested prior to the games any ways.

I love cox in coverage but he isn't great agaisnt the run.
He is being mocked in the 2nd
As far as kwon, he is supposedly way ahead of schedule and will be ready for week 1.
Eric wilson from the vikings would be a decent replacement. He is great in coverage but decent against the run.

Wilson caught my eye as well. Looks like a good fit for what we need.
