Great stuff. Landon is very grounded, eager to learn & seems genuinely honored to have the opportunity to perform in New Orleans. He's all about giving back to the community too. Could become a diamond in the rough inside those trenches.

I really like how our draft choices are being interviewed by former (Stinchcomb, Harper, Bushrod) Saints legends as well.

Good luck at camp Landon

The draft haul as a whole, looks good because of picks like Landon Young...

Nitpicking, but a WRz in R2, and Cameron McGrone in R4 would have made this a terrific draft haul...

What's so special about this McGrone guy? I hadn't heard of him. Then again, I hadn't heard of any of our draft picks either.

He won’t make the roster. He isn’t better than our current OL backups.

Then why was JP saying we would have done better if we had drafted him rather than Werner? Or are you talking Young? Not clear here.

Landon Young. He won’t make the roster. Too many good backups already on the roster.

But on vet contracts, right? A late round rookie costs much less against the cap, right? We'll see. My money's on the cheaper marginally equal option.

You realized that's a public statement of ignorance of football?

I don't know them either. I don't mind being ignorant as long as I hang out with informed folks like ya'll.
