Maybe. But it's a bust pick if you invest that much and don't put things in place to make it all work...

But great players, as should be drafted like that, are expected to elevate irregardless of who's in place...

True. #6 is really high to go and not go crazy.

And remember that the best players get drafted go to a crappy team with poor coaching and/or scheme fits. We have done well enough in the draft to have one of the best rosters for the last few years. This year we cleaned house and have plenty of room new faces.

Still waiting for the reasoning behind the motivation to pretend to draft. JP? K_Major? Smash? lee? Others?

How about this: Let the guys enjoy guessing what player ends up with the Saints in the offseason for their entertainment.

I honestly don't understand why you want to disrupt discussions by calling people out and being a miserable killjoy.

How about I genuinely want to know? There's clearly some motivation. I know a lot of dedicated NFL fans that enjoy the draft day itself, but do not get into all the pre-draft stuff.

So is it like you said, guessing which player ends up being drafted for entertainment purposes? Is that your take on it?

But...but....isn't that why you watch the NFL....for entertainment purposes? I read these to learn who are the top players out there that may fit the system because I want to be familiar with the pick if possible so I can build them up into my camp beast. My feeling is most people pick their favorite player for fit and scheme and then we discuss them in great depth at times...I like it!

Incidentally I rarely watch smug Godhell run the draft and hugging players like he really cares has me only clicking back and forth to see if we traded up.

I try to learn as much as I can about the players we actually draft, or sign as UDFA's. I really don't care about the rookies that end up on other teams unless they end up getting a starting job and then it's for fantasy purposes. I guess it helps understand if one was actually into college ball to begin with. And, yes, I watch the NFL games for entertainment. That's why I would always want more games.
