A popular question thrown at New Orleans Saints general manager Mickey Loomis the past couple of months has been centered around expectation levels for the team's 2018 NFL Draft class.
"Do you feel pressure to replicate last year's class?" has probably been thrown Loomis and Sean Payton's way more times than either can count at this rate. The easy answer is "no." And for good reason.
It's basically impossible for the Saints to come anywhere close to last year's success for a number of reasons. They don't have five picks in the first three rounds like last year.
