NFL: NFL Draft Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports

The New Orleans Saints are set to begin another important draft weekend tonight. They are slotted to pick at number 29 as of this moment and we will see if they stand pat, move ahead, or fall back with their first-round pick. This, of course, all adds to the drama that is the NFL Draft. Hopefully the Saints start this draft with a fantastic pick tonight.
