The saints took the offensive platform Kelvin Banks with the ninth choice in total in the draft, but head coach Kellen Moore asked a different position at the start of his press conference on Thursday evening.
Moore was asked if he knew which quarter-rear Banks would block this fall. Derek Carr is n ° 1 on the table of depths, but the recent news of a right shoulder injury have put a doubt about how things will be under the center of New Orleans. Managing Director Mickey Loomis said earlier this week that the team was waiting for “Resolution and clarity“Regarding the status of Carr and Moore underlined this statement several times on Thursday.
“We had the impression that our board had been built in the right way,” said Moore. “We are going to let it be played. We trust the process and we have the impression that we had good players in the building. Again, Mickey has somehow addressed the way Derek’s situation is played, so I hope that clarity in the coming time, because everyone goes through this process.”
Only two quarters came out of the table in the first round and the saints should choose the number 40 Friday evening, so the process could still bring a new quarter to the Big Easy.
