Now that the Saints are back in the first round, will they use the pick to get a QB?

NEW ORLEANS, La. – One question the New Orleans Saints will have to ponder now that they're back in the first round of the draft: Do they use the pick on a quarterback?

The Saints came into the offseason with no first-round picks but now own the 29th pick as compensation for trading the rights to former coach Sean Payton's contract to the Denver Broncos on Jan. 31.

The end of the first round isn't an easy place to be when scouting a team's most important position, but the Saints will have to turn over every stone after foundering on offense for two seasons.
