I always liked Roby and I'm gad that we made the trade to get him. If it was a fourth round and maybe a seventh round pick then I'm stoked that we got him. Payton uses his later round picks for ammunition to move up for the player or players he covets. Payton uses the day three picks like they were poker chips.

I was thinking that Kamara is more of a wild card than a poker chip. But I like the way you think.

The Saints are paying 1.8M this season in exchange for a starting corner. And a "true" #2 corner ;).

Giving up a 3rd in exchange for a starting caliber cb is just stealing. No guarantees what you'll get in the third round on draft days.

Having Latt and Roby on those boundaries is a win win for 2021.

That's what my how the Saints Coaches deploy Roby comment was about...

Roby was not a regular in starter in DEN as Aqib Talib was ahead of him on the depth chart...

When he signed with HOU, he was moved to the NCB within a year?!?

So I guess we'll find out if he's a true Outside CB or however the Saints use him...

Suspect Payton spent draft capitol so he could make sure he had CB depth for Week 1 and get that all-important home-field, NFC tie breaker over the Packers...

As in ...

... we are going all in to win now!

People do not believe in us. We have as much overall talent as last year when we went 12-4! We ARE going to the post season.

Well the excuse the Saints don't have the talent has been bullshinski since 2017 - and the roster has only gotten better...

Saints have been all-in since 2018 and on after that 2017 draft haul...

We just gotta find out once the bullets are live if Jameis has truly changed or neaux...

Not sure i like it to be honest.
Its cheap this year, another fairly big salary for next while trying to fill the roster that loses Winston,Armstead,Williams and Lattimore looking like they'll be over the cap already.
