Anybody have serious issues with this draft?

Seems like a solid effort.

None…its a A

The biggest red flags were addressed in the first 2 picks.

We didn't give up next year's 1st

We shot for depth with low ceiling high floors mid draft.

We shot for potential late.

That's best situation by far

A- grade for me. Like my rating matters anyway but I think we did good.

There were some names I had in mind that we should go after but I'm happy with the new crop of Saints.

Can’t complain. They saw their biggest needs and answered them. Our DL just went from terrible to having the chance to be a terror for opposing offenses. On pass downs you can kick Cam inside with Breese and then have Granderson and Foskey at DE.

I think people will find those four are in almost all top 100

overall, i thought they did a great job early and late, but the middle is a little questionable...

but overall, good job not wasting future assets, and addressing main areas of need

Only if you look at it from the media’s perspective focusing on the Saints. Players “fall” because teams want their guy and don’t rely upon rankings from Kiper, PFF, CBS sports, etc. that we look at for weeks.

Not that you’re wrong for looking at it from that perspective, we all do. But we have no idea who will get picked, who will fall, what kind of deals teams are and aren’t willing to make and how well a team knows and wants a player. We make it way more complicated than it is. Don’t treat it like supermarket sweep or something; if you want a player, get the player.

I like a couple of the late picks. But I think we screwed up not picking
Branch in the 2nd,
One of the TN receivers in the 3rd notably Tilman
And Antonio Johnson instead of the Minny guy.
