Saints: WTFP 2020 NFL Draft 3-round staff mock picks and explanations
By Sam Penix
The WTFP team went through a three-round 2020 NFL Draft mock, and the New Orleans Saints came out with two instant starters to bolster the defense.
Over the weekend, the With The First Pick staff assembled to create a three-round 2020 NFL Draft mock. The New Orleans Saints are without a second-round pick this year as a result of 2019’s Erik McCoy trade, but that doesn’t mean the team can’t end up with some real impact players.
Find the first round here, the second here, and the third here. The entire draft was conducted on WTFP’s Twitter page, so go check it out!
It isn’t fun to think about, but Drew Brees‘ career is coming to an end. He is now 41 years old, and signed a two-year extension worth $50 million this offseason. He is still one of the very best quarterbacks in the NFL, and the Saints need to take advantage of what little time they have lift with Brees. The past two seasons have ended in massive disappointment, and the team needs do what it can to make sure the result is different in 2020.
Let’s take a look at both picks and how they can help New Orleans both this season and moving forward.
