The Saints have four picks remaining in the final four rounds of the 2014 NFL Draft. Here's a look at who they might target on the final day.

After three rounds of action over the past two days the 2014 NFL Draft comes to its conclusion today with the final four rounds today.

The Saints currently have the 126th, 167th, 169th, and 202nd overall picks. Since the Saints have taken care of their two major needs at wide receiver and cornerack in the first two rounds, they can focus on other positions of need like offensive line and linebackers.

Cornerback Pierre Desir is probably the best remaining player that's been associated with the Saints often. But the Saints have already addressed their need at CB and he probably will be gone when the Saints pick in the 4th round so he might be out of the question.

Saints fans should also keep their eye on Georgia quarterback Aaron Murray, who has drawn many comparisons to Drew Brees and who the Saints have been rumored to like very much. If he's still available when the Saints are on the clock and he's one of their highly rated players at the time, they just might pull the trigger.

Also on the radar in the late rounds at placekicker is Tulane's Cairos Santos, who is already familiar with making kicks inside the Superdome.
