In our latest mock draft run on Fanspeak’s On the Clock Premium Simulator, the New Orleans Saints decided to stay put and let the talent come to them. In a draft with a deep pool of players who most teams will grade as second rounders, there are two schools of thought.
One is to acquire several picks within that range to maximize. The other is to stay put with the belief some of those players will still be available when on the clock. With no second-round pick, the Saints run a risk by staying put, but it worked out this time.
