Who should the New Orleans Saints pick in first round?
The Saints should pick a receiver (tight end or wide receiver) and a cornerback with their first two picks of the 2007 NFL Draft. Hopefully, one of these players are picked by the New Orleans Saints. (For actual Saints draft results, see below.)
