While Saints fans generally agree that most, if not all, of this year’s early draft picks should be used to upgrade the team’s defense, some analysts have rumbled about the possibility that the Saints spend one of those early picks—possibly even a first round pick—on the offense. Far and away the most popular name so linked is Christian McCaffrey.
On the one hand, I’d question whether or not McCaffrey will fit into the Saints draft spots. McCaffrey at 11 could be a reach. But there’s next to no chance that the running back falls to 32.
