NFL  > New Orleans Saints  > Saints' draft: Offense, Defense or BAP ?
April 7, 2009, 04:27 PM
I truly believe that the Saints have finally reached a point where it isn't necessary to draft to fill a need. They can simply choose the BAP (best available player) according to their board. Or is this just hopeful thinking?

i agree, we probably could take best player available. i would just like to get cushing or vonte davis

April 7, 2009  06:29 PM ET

well i would take the best player availble at the position that you need

Don't be surprised that if there isn't a true stud that can make a significant contribution this year that they try and move down and pick up some additional picks.

Teams should always build through best available player.

i still think we in need of LB, so maybe they will take BA LB..lol... guess we will see, not too much longer till the draft...

Not being an assss or any thing (like I usually am) But WhoDat21 how are you a saints fan from Ohio????

Not to be an ass either but its WhoDat91 not 21. When I was a kid and first started watching NFL was when the Saints franchise started. I just kinda picked them and stayed loyal.

Taking the Best Available Player is why we're stuck with little Reggie Bush running passing routes out of the backfield.

Geaux Pierre Thomas!

Geaux Saints!

There is no such thing as the best available player.

Yeah I took alot of ribbing and how's and why's growing up but luckily the two teams from Ohio suck big time. And I tell the Steelers fans that the Saints are the black n gold. They are the black n yellow !
