New Orleans Saints: Sergio Kindle, DE/OLB, Texas
With Scott Fujita defecting for Cleveland, New Orleans’ two biggest needs are now defensive end and strongside linebacker. Coincidentally, Sergio Kindle can play both.

Kindle could be utilized like fellow Longhorn Brian Orakpo was used in Washington in 2009. Depending on the situation, Kindle could drop into coverage or rush the passer from the defensive end position. I’m sure Gregg Williams would love to have someone with Kindle’s versatility on the roster.

The Saints had 35 sacks last year, but 13 of those came from Will Smith. They signed Alex Brown, and while he excels against the run, he’s not much of a pass-rusher.

New Orleans Saints: Daryl Washington, OLB, TCU
Help is needed to stabilize a weak linebacking corps. Scott Fujita is gone, while Scott Shanle began the year well, but wore down against the run late in the season.

I’ve had Daryl Washington going as high as No. 34 before, so he’s a huge steal at the bottom of Round 2.

New Orleans Saints: D’Anthony Smith, DT, Louisiana Tech
Sedrick Ellis is a stud, but the Saints need someone else next to him to help stop the run.

New Orleans Saints: Roddrick Muckelroy, OLB, Texas
Another linebacker? Well, Scott Shanle needs to be upgraded, and Scott Fujita must be replaced.

New Orleans Saints: Zac Robinson, QB, Oklahoma State
Mark Brunell should be in a museum, while Chase Daniel is definitely not the answer. The Saints will be searching for a quarterback in the final rounds of the 2010 NFL Draft.

New Orleans Saints: Chris Maragos, FS, Wisconsin
An insurance pick, just in case the Saints can’t re-sign Darren Sharper.
