There aren't as many roster spots available as we have draft picks already.
There are a bunch of guys that come off the board in the early 20s that I'd love to have and a few guys still there at 30 that I'd be fine with. Based on that draft, I'd be looking to move up for Cunningham, Brantley or Peppers than move back. Though I'll admit that Peppers would require we make some changes to the scheme that may not work for him. I don't think he can put on the weight he'd need for a 3-4 ILB; may be a kid that can only play 4-3 SAM.
But if he's Deone Buchannon (and he might be), we can find a way to make him a difference maker here, IMO.

More picks means more chances to get it right. Only fools think that it's smart to give away draft picks because there's "no room" on the roster.
Remember when the Saints traded their entire draft for Ricky Williams?
