The seemingly endless amount of mock drafts and expert opinions can now be put to rest. The New Orleans Saints made seven draft picks over the 7-round/3-day draft event this past weekend. Let's have a look at who they took, and how each pick could impact the franchise.

The Saints traded their 1st round pick this year (27th overall), a 5th round pick, and next year's 1st round pick to Green Bay in order to move up to the Packers' number 14 spot to select Davenport, generally considered to be the second best edge rusher in this draft.
