The thing is thou that the league could get rid of 10-20 of the absolute top players and people would still watch. there would be *****ing and moaning but that'd be gone in a month.

Then I want to see them do it. Let’s see them let go of the top 10 to 20 players so they can go to the XFL.

Aaron Donald
Drew Brees
Khalil Mack
Pat Mahomes
Todd Gurley
Tom Brady
Antonio Brown
Aaron Rodgers
Julio Jones
Von Miller
DeAndre Hopkins
JJ Watt
Alvin Kamara
Bobby Wagner
Saquon Barkley
Phillip Rivers
Ezekiel Elliott
Tyreek Hill
Travis Kelce

That’s the top 20 as chosen by the players. I’d love to see that scenario play out.

Jalen Ramsey is HOF elite and he can see the #sh*tshow that is Jaguars Mgt/Coaching which is interesting considering HC Doug Marrone was Coach Payton's first OC here with the Saints...

If we'd spend two firsts on Davenport, do we spend two firsts on Ramsey?

With the looming possibility we collapse with Brees retirement and of Trevor Lawrence there and we continue to look like crap with Check-down Bridgewater...

I am rather confident that the NFL would endure that.

Speaking of Fitz ... if he went for a 1st then there is no question Ramsey goes for a 1.

Send them a 1st, PJ and Davenport right now.

I’d take Jalen Ramsey and pay him even if it meant that Marshon Lattimore walks in free agency. Jalen Ramsey is the better player. I love Marshon, but Jalen is a clear upgrade.

Without a doubt. He's consistently good. Slot, boundaries you name it.

Only person I put in his company is Patrick Petersen at the position.

Chiefs (severe need at CB), Philly & Ravens could be potential landing spots for Jalen.

Yeah, Jalen is clearly better; only way you get two CBs like that is if one falls to you in the draft...

If you've got two under contract, chances are you got nothing else on defense, talent-wise, under contract...
