I'd like to try and get Derek Carr

Man.... I'm loving this. Now if Loomy will go ahead and pull the trigger on Clayton Tune in the draft and develop him into the backup roll I would be ecstatic. The only reason I want be screaming for Grayson McCall here he's going back to school to my understanding.

I'm still hoping they let Thomas go and draft another WR in the 2nd round. Jalin Hyatt would be a fine replacement for Thomas. That's who Hooker threw to quite a bit if I'm not mistaken.

We'll see.

There will be excuses. There will be unexpected injuries. You don't assemble the oldest roster in the league without banking on the ability to blame everything on injuries if it doesn't work out. We will almost certainly make a splash trading up in the draft so we have as little depth and as few talented young players as possible, so if any 30-somethings get hurt we can start journeymen and undrafted free agents in their place and blame the season on that.

Happy about this. Frees up our entire draft to BPA. If we had a qb last year we would have won 10 minimum

There's also this. Getting Carr could mean Thomas is returning, as well.

So lets say by some miracle that having a QB that Thomas likes is the key to Thomas staying healthy after missing 40 of 50 games. Does that mean if Andrus Peat misses a block because someone in the crowd eating some Little Debbie Snacks catches his eye, and Carr gets hurt, Thomas will stop playing too? Is that what we need, a player who is only interested in playing if a particular teammate is available too?

Drafting Hyatt will make Thomas the forgotten man. Rookie contract, fresh legs, no drama, and eager. One thing I've learned about kids, they will play their hearts out. That's what I feel Thomas lost, heart. I wish him well going somewhere else, maybe Pittsburg and that freezing a$$ weather up there does him good.

Hyatt wouldn’t really be a replacement for Thomas. He’s a field stretcher. We’d be really thin and fast at WR.

O, Shaheed, Calloway and Hyatt I think would look excellent.

Demario - 34
Cam J - 33
Tyrann M - 31
David Onyemata - 30
Derek Carr - 32

^^ These are our BEST players

.

Saints definitely need to start the youth movement on BOTH sides of the ball

I'm much more concerned at what we will do at RB than WR

Welcome aboard Derek! Will be interesting to see the contract.
