Trendsetters? Saints could be first of many teams to draft DT in Round 1

Ranking the New Orleans Saints’ top draft needs. At No. 2 is defensive tackle:

Current depth chart:

John Jenkins, age 26

Nick Fairley, age 28

Tyeler Davison, age 23

Kaleb Eulls, age 24

Ashaad Mabry, age 23

Outlook: The smartest bet for the Saints in this year’s draft is that they’ll wind up with a new defensive tackle by the end of Day 2 -- not just because it’s a big need, but because there is a staggering amount of talent available in the first three rounds.
