Everyone seems to agree that the 2 biggest needs for the Saints going into the 2011 season are defensive end and outside linebacker. The past 2 seasons, the Saints drafted defensive backs, Malcolm Jenkins in '09 and Patrick Robinson in '10, with their first round picks. As Mel Kiper, Jr. has been pointing out on ESPN, this year is fine time for the Saints to use their top selection to help sure up their defensive front 7. The recent free agent addition of defensive tackle Shaun Rogers certainly helps matters, but the Saints still need help with their pass rush. So, here are the prime candidates who might be available for the Saints to take with the 24th pick of the first round:
Justin Houston, OLB/DE, Georgia:
Muhammad Wilkerson, DE, Temple:
Cameron Heyward, DE, Ohio State:
Adrian Clayborn, DE, Iowa:
