Brown right now, but SP has made it clear that Brown's injury history (more specifically, his gameday "availablity") is something he is looking to stabilize before going into battle next fall.

But OT, for the Saints, is way overrated. Drew Brees made Jamal Brown, Stinchcomb, Bushrod, & Strief look better than they were. The Saints' bread & butter is the guards & centers creating the wall of the pocket to step up into, usually after our OT's let their man get a bit too close to Brees.

OT can be addressed with a mid-round pick (as they have successfully done in the past), or even a relatively inexpensive vet OT like McKinnie, if Loomis can free some more money.

OT at #15 is not a priority but rather a luxury.

Unless I missing something, we are basically out of money to sign players. I thought McKinnie was looking like a strong possibility there for awhile...but now it seems we can sign folks but then rebid cuts will have to come around June 1.

I think LT is such an important piece of the team, even with a great pocket-manipulator like Brees, and our current situation makes me queasy at BEST

LT if possible now

But we're drafting honey badger. No room.

Austin is big reason why. RT @MarcSesslerNFL: 49ers, Dolphins, Vikings looking to trade up in the draft? LINK

NFL draft buzz: 49ers, Dolphins looking to trade up?

Game changers, like Tavon Austin, could tempt teams such as the Miami Dolphins, Minnesota Vikings and pick-rich San Francisco 49ers, to trade up in next month's draft, Daniel Jeremiah says.

Hopefully we trade back now

Everyone talks about trading back and aquiring more picks. That sounds great in theory until you realize about half the teams in the top 15 would like to trade back. In order trade back, you have to have someone willing to trade up to your spot. Just don't see it happening. Still think the Saints go BPA and hope that the BPA at #15 also matches a need position. However, I don't see the Saints reaching just to fill a spot at OLB/DE, LT or DB.

We pretending Jr. Didn't sign?

Based on the contract it's obvious the FO has a lot of faith in him working out as a 3-4 OLB. But, in all honesty, if he's our best candidate to really take hold in the 3-4 we're really setting ourselves up for a lot of unknowns. I'd rather them draft OLB at 15 just like we did prior to this signing.

This 2 year deal with Bulter is really just a stepping stone contract. If he works out and does will in this position, he'll command more money in free agency. With younger players coming up in the ranks, this will give us the freedom to not have to pay a premium OLB what he's worth. At least not immediately.
