Saints general manager Mickey Loomis admitted that the Saints have talked with a number of teams about what it would cost to move up from the No. 10 pick in the draft. And he said he doesn't foresee the Saints trading down from that spot.

He wants Dorsey.

Hopefully they pick someone good for when they move to L.A.

" Oh when the Saints coming marching in, oh when the Saints come marching in, I want to see them in the fourth spot - when the Saints come marching in"!!!

I think the Saints need the #3 spot to land Dorsey and the Falcons will not do it. Giving up less and landing the 4-9 sopt to get Ellis would be wise.

Sorry crafty right hander, youre good with youre right hand, ugh. Saints are not going to move. Plus Los Angelos wouldnt want them. Would be nice for Bush to be back in L.A. but sorry bud. It would have already of happend when the hurricane hit the N.O.

They want Dorsey but so do the Rams and Falcons. With Dorsey gone they will target Ellis but the Bengals at 9 will take him. If they really want Ellis they will have to trade up to number 7 or 8 to get him.

They can't trade with the Raiders at 4... 10 is to far for us to fall... To get who we need... (Ellis or Dorsey)

The Rams are looking to get more picks, the deal could very well get done. The Falcons would never trade with the Saints, a conference opponent. Righthander, LA can't buy or steal, much less keep a team (See Rams and Raiders). The Saint are New Orleans and New Orleans is the Saints, at least as soon as CP3 wins the NBA MVP and the Hornets dispose of the Lakers in the Western Conference finals.
