Saints' Payton reveals offensive line as draft target
New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton was very forthcoming with the position groups his team is focusing on in the upcoming draft.
"I'd like to come out of this draft with a young offensive lineman," Payton said at Wednesday's coaches meetings, according to reporters. "We've talked about cornerback. I think it's an outstanding running back class."
On the subject of running backs, Payton said many of the rushers projected to go in the middle of the draft could have strong careers.
He added the Saints will visit with controversial running back Joe Mixon.

Mixon assaulted a female college student by punching her in the face in 2014. As a result, his projected draft position is hazy.
