Re: 2021 NFL Draft: New Orleans Saints
Surely the NFL could make more money if they stretched it out longer. Anyone remember when it was a one day affair? It's just another one of the moves Godhell has made to over saturate the market.
I'm surprised that we don't have a 4th game during the week. That would give us Sunday football games which last all day. Monday night football which the NFL is trying to run more double headers on Monday. Then there's the Thursday night games which aren't as fun to watch because they don't have a full week to practice. So that still leaves four more days for the NFL to further expand and over saturate the NFL market. |

Trust me, I know the quantitative analysis is there on dang near everybody in the draft, regardless of pos’n, but sometimes fit with a team, or a single bad position coach, or a personality quirk, etc... can turn a superstar in the making into persona non grata with an NFL team’s FO, ensuring he is seen as a bust. It’s the uncertainty, not the round drafted. imho, if you’re drafted, you have the potential. After that, it’s just development and fit that makes the difference between success or failure. Brees wasn’t exactly a stud puppy at San Diego, and regardless of injury, I firmly believe he would have been completely wasted had he and Payton not found their joined at the hip relationship. |

Re: 2021 NFL Draft: New Orleans Saints
Taking the best player available is a luxury that we can’t really afford this year with so many holes.
