Saints are fine.
Oh I know, that’s absolutely true. That first round pick though... man that was garbage. I’ve read everything I need to read and watched everything I need to watch. We couldn’t secure a trade up so we just threw something against the wall hoping it would stick. Totally disappointed.

Re: 2021 NFL Draft: New Orleans Saints

I don’t have an issue with the player bu we have so many more holes on this team and no money to fill them. I would have rather them trade back for more capital than to reach for a position that has depth.

LB and CB are way bigger needs than DE. We signed two DEs in the off season already that can offer rotational support.

I’m just happy we didn’t make a ridiculous trade up. Now we need either Tyson Campbell or Ifeatu Melifonwu in the 2nd round.

It looks like it would have taken a trade up to get a CB and that takes a partner. We took what they determined was best player available. Sounds good to me.

I wouldn't mind a trade up for Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah. It would hardly surprise me if we ended up with an Ohio State linebacker in the third round.

I'm so glad we got those compensation picks.

Ohio St LB Pete Werner in the 3rd would be fantastic.

I told y’all that was a terrible pick and Mayock is a garbage GM.

Mike Mayock went from being a television draft analyst to running a football team. Who would have thought something could go wrong?

We've the same problem here - Sean tells Mickey what to do; there's no check and balances to make for a deliberative process...

Until Sean recognizes and embraces that he can't have unlimited power within the franchise, he'll continue to handicap his success on the field...

Whether government, business, football team, there must be a healthy set of checks and balances...
