<font class="PostDisplay">#24 New Orleans Saints: J.J. Watt, DE, Wisconsin
The Saints don't have many holes on their roster, but they could certainly use some upgrades on their defensive front. I think they'll take the best pass-rusher available. J.J. Watt, who happens to be the best player available, fills a huge need at defensive end across from Will Smith.
#56 New Orleans Saints: Mason Foster, OLB, Washington
The Saints need help at either weakside or middle linebacker. In this case, they can draft Mason Foster and keep Jonathan Vilma inside. Mason Foster had a great season and should now be in mid-Round 2 consideration.
#72 New Orleans Saints: Jordan Todman, RB, Connecticut
The Saints acquired this pick from the Redskins in the Jammal Brown trade. Why does it seem like all three of New Orleans' running backs are always injured? The Saints could use some stability at the position, and Jordan Todman is the best player available.
#88 New Orleans Saints: K.J. Wright, OLB, Mississippi State
Strongside linebacker isn't a huge need for the Saints right now, but it will be if they don't retain free agents Danny Clark, JoLonn Dunbar and Marvin Mitchell. And even if they do, there's room for improvement. K.J. Wright is one of the top players available.
