A'Shawn Robinson. 12. player. 15. <p>The Saints’ defense didn’t stop much of anything in 2015, and it all starts on the defensive line.  Getting big A’Shawn Robinson out of Alabama in the draft can help sturdy a defensive line which surrendered the second most rushing yards and surrendered the most points in the league.</p> <p>Robinson could start immediately in the middle of the New Orleans’ defensive line, and while the offense needs help as Drew Brees continues to age, the defense being able to hold teams off of the scoreboard more often would certainly help the Saints transition from a pass-first offense to a more balanced approach.</p>. DT. Alabama

Next: 13. Philadelphia Eagles
