Should the Saints look at trading into the 4th round for Ja'Tavion Sanders? Thoughts?

So is Quay going to take the leap to being good, now that there's (at least) two 2nd linebackers coming to take his job? I have to think that was part of the equation here. I liked the Cooper pick, really didn't like the Hopper pick, but if there's an iron sharpen iron thing going on then maybe this all works out and the three make each other better.

I’m happy with the picks so far. JPJ is a stud so very happy with pick. As anyone would be in the 3rd Glaze is probably for the future. We’ve built up the depth of the OL and created some competition. JPJ G/C Whitehair G/C Parham G/C Glaze G/T Munford T/G. Glaze might be a slight reach but likely wouldn’t have been there in the 4th while other positions such as CB/WR should still have some good targets. Payton Wilson would have been my pick but medicals are obviously an issue, be interested to see how he goes. Id be looking at CB, NT & WR ideally in day 3 to build the depth.

Browning and Cooper are FAs next year

Poles very honest in his day 2 media availability… Pretty much so said Bralen Trice was about to be the pick but came off the board so they went BPA over need Said they might try and get back in for a “gold player” Pretty much so said they will look to sort the DL depth in vet free agency Was even honest about the fact being a bad team especially in year one made it difficult to attract FAs and they had to pay more for guys

How much would the perception sway if Wes made that grab in the SB?

Best Day two picks versus my board: 28. Dominick Puni | OL | Kansas - 49ers (-58) 33. Christian Haynes | IOL | Connecticut - Seahawks (-48) 58. Payton Wilson | LB | NC State - Steelers (-40) 9.

Jermaine Burton | WR | Alabama - Bengals (-16) 68. Roman Wilson | WR | Michigan - Steelers (-16) Worst Value Day two picks versus my board: 68. Caedan Wallace | OT | Penn State - Patriots (Not Ranked Top 150) 79. Matt Goncalves | OL | Pittsburgh - Colts (Not Ranked Top 150) 82. Tip Reinman | TE | Illinois - Cardinals (Not Ranked Top 150) 87. Marist Liufau - Notre Dame - Cowboys (Not Ranked Top 150) 91. Ty'Ron Hopper - Missouri - Packers (Not Ranked Top 150) 145. Marshawn Lloyd | RB | USC - Packers (+57) 148. Jalyx Hunt | EDGE | Houston Baptist - Eagles (+54) 111. Blake Fisher | OT | Notre Dame - Texans (+52) 99. Maason Smith | DL | LSU - Jaguars (+51) 110. Cole Bishop | S | Utah - Bills (+50) 92. Kamari Lassiter | CB | Georgia - Texans (+50) 83. Ruke Orhorhoro | DL | Clemson - Falcons (+48) 138. DeWayne Carter | DL | Duke - Bills (+43) 128. Zak Zinter | IOL | Michigan - Browns (+43) 120. Calen Bullock | S | USC - Texans (+42) Some of these are probably fine due to the talent levelling out, but you do have to balance those out against the good players still left on the board. I was probably too low on Jalyx Hunt (couldn't watch much on him) and Marshawn Lloyd. Plus teams had to respond to the run at offensive tackle.
