Who do you have the Saints picking up in the 1st round tonight?
I'm hoping for Kenny Pickett out of Pitt and OFF Tackle from Mississippi State

I didn't see a single QB in this draft that was an upgrade over Jameis Winston so that would have wasted a pick. I knew the Saints would have to trade up into the top 7 to get Cross from MS State but they did get Trevor Penning out of UNI so I was happy with that. I said they needed to draft a receiver and a tackle with these two first round picks and that's exactly what they did. Happy with Penning and very happy with Chris Olave.

I agree totally with your assessment. That WR from Arkansas is going to be a beast. I was hoping for him if we went to a wr. But Olave as a 2 or 3rd option is going to be dangerous. I still want us to sign Jarvis though. I think Pickett is going to be a great player. Maybe not right away but in due time.

I was hoping they'd go Olave/Williams and best tackle available, and they did. Olave's ability to stretch the field is going to be highlighted even more with Thomas back, which is great because now it'll allow Jameis to take more vertical shots and that'll open things for Thomas even more. Not to mention the opportunities Harris/Harty will get on the opponent's #3 or even #4 corner which allows for even more shot plays.

I think Pickett has the brightest future for sure, just not an upgrade for us right now when there were more pressing needs. I liked Burks alot too and that's who I thought they would take if the took a different position with that first pick
