We all really want to see the Saints take one of these running backs. Yeah sure they "need" help at safety and at linebacker. But even if the players the Saints are likely targeting at those positions are still available at number 14, they all seem a little ho-hum as prospects. Besides, conventional wisdom says you can never have enough backs... and the Saints arguably don't even have one right now.
I go back and forth over which one to take though. Moreno reminds me a bit of Cadillac Williams. He's shifty and tough but not exceptionally fast and probably injury prone. Meanwhile Wells is reputed to suffer from "immaturity" but is physically more in the mold of what the Saints need right now.
Based on the comments Jeff Duncan points out here, I'd have to guess the Saints are favoring Moreno.
But I have a soft spot for athletes who march to their own drummer and I like the fact that Wells doesn't appear to be too much of a kiss-ass teacher's pet. Plus how fun would it be to have a guy named "Beanie" on the team?
