The 2017 NFL Draft was one of the best New Orleans Saints draft classes in recent memory, but would it be the same if they went back and re-drafted?

Reminiscing back on the 2017 NFL Draft can be a blast for any New Orleans Saints fan. Two first-round picks, highlighted by an amazing third round all put this specific draft as one of the best drafts in Saints’ history.

Going into 2020, almost all of these draft picks are either starting for the New Orleans Saints or are still a member of the team in a backup role. Either way, the draft proved vital to the future success of the team as a whole.

Have you ever wondered, though, what the draft might look like if you could see years into the future? Players that would get disgruntled and leave; picks that wouldn’t pan out to be good; or even trades that proved invaluable.

If you could go back and make the changes necessary to have the best draft possible, would you? Here is how the New Orleans Saints 2017 NFL Draft would look like if we could go back from right now and re-draft the with the same picks.
