Kyle’s Pick: Jason Verrett, CB, Texas Christian
Jason Verrett is a very good cornerback. The saints are able to select him this late in the first round simply because he is, well, short. Standing at just under 5’10”, Verrett plays bigger than he measures.

Dan’s Pick: Bradley Roby, CB, Ohio State
Roby is a speedy, playmaking corner that could have been drafted higher with a better 2013 season. The Saints secondary hasn’t been great for some time, and adding a player like Roby could help a young, improving defense take the next step.
