The Saints are transitioning to a 3-4 defense and will need to focus much of their resources on adding the right personnel. The three biggest areas of need are adding a bonafide pass rusher, multiple safeties and a true nose tackle.
If they do spend any picks on offense, expect it to be in one of three areas: Offensive tackle, wide receiver and a developmental quarterback.
