With the 37th pick all the LT prospeect would be off the board and provided there isn't a run on OL we would be looking at the 6 or 7 rated OT.
These players like Vladimir Duccasse or Charles Brown or Veldheer may not even be ready to start.

But, on the other hand why are the saints willing to let him a young OT go?

Was Bushrod ability inflated by the quality of the other OL around him?

At the end of the day Bushrod would instantly be the best OT on our roster.

Bushrod was a career backup until he was forced into action this year due to Jammal Brown going down with an injury. Now that Brown is healthy Bushrod is expendable. He did a decent job filling in at LT but was often exposed. He's a decent player, a good backup to have around.
