The New Orleans Saints are set to begin a critical draft to begin the post-Sean Payton era in the Crescent City. They are slotted to pick at numbers 16 and 19 as of this moment and we will see if they stand pat, move ahead, or fall back with both picks. This, of course, all adds to the drama that is the NFL Draft. Hopefully the Saints start this draft with fantastic picks tonight.
