The meme that this would be a defensive draft for us…

I was somewhat suspicious of it, given that teams very often attempt to stack Offensive talent quickly once they’ve found a QB, we had one of the worst offenses in the league, and we have an offensive HC.

It’s clear now that they’ve decided they have got to get the abysmal Offense fixed. I wouldn’t be surprised if they picked a project speed RB soon.

They are clearly going to bring in some vets and post June 6 cuts to try and help the D.

I like how it is all across the board

Free agents
RB - Etienne
G - Edwards
TE - Fant

Draft picks
WR -Tyson
TE - Delp
G - Wright
WR - Lance

Still want another OL and possibly another RB. But RB could be undrafted free agent.

On defense, I still think we need a secondary pick and an edge player.

Do we? I think so.

This could be both Kamara and Miller's last year with the Saints.

That would leave Etienne and some average backs.

I like Claiborne out of Wake Forest. Could also be a kick returner.

I could see a running back with a 6th or 7th rounder.

Yea but the defense will take a step back losing so many vets. Fans just need to remember that we aren't one season away. Investing in help for your QB now gives him a legit chance to gain some early playoff experience and it likely means some continuity on the defensive staff with Staley sticking around a bit. Then we can go all out for defense

It was a meme because you take bpa in the draft. You don't intentionally lock yourself in because of perceived needs. That's how you end up as the Raiders or the Browns.
