Liberal? Vax MANDATES are as logical as evacuating US bases in Afghanistan before civilians.
My body, my choice - only works for Liberals? When they want to kill babies.
If some are forced to get vax - will those forcing them be liable for their illness or death? THEY SHOULD BE BUT WONT.
Careful Thirty. Asking questions like this may lead to a charge of spreading misinformation. After all, Biden said his patience is wearing thin.

As for Davenport, this fan has had enough of him. Three draft picks with two first rounders spent on this reach clearly has not paid off. Cue up all those that want to use his injuries as excuses. Cut bait and get a player in there who will actually see the friggin field. Nothing against the player personally. Like his game in the 30 or so percent of the time he’s been available. But that ain’t enough. Just my take.

I’m only frustrated at Davenport availability. His talent is undeniable.
The picks given up don’t bother me because most 1st rounders never live up to their draft position anyway. Look at our roster, most of our studs aren’t 1st rd picks. AK himself is worth two 1st rounders himself. Just look at our secondary, outside of Jenkins, all of them have proven to be 1st rd trade players if that was considered. Basically, I’m saying we’ve been fortunate enough to land players who where drafted beyond the 1st rd, whom have played like 1st rounders.

I realize it’s not his fault, but the picks given up do bug me. The two first rounders could have been traded for say two third rounders each. Pair that with the additional third given to trade up and that’s 5 third rounders that could have been used to try and replace the production Davenport had shown so far.

I don’t dislike the player. I don’t dislike his game. If he’d have stayed even somewhat healthy he would have warranted a 14th overall pick. But a heck of a lot more than a 14th was spent on him and he’s spent a heck a lot of time on the injured list.

All of this is true but you can see why they moved up, the kid is a game wrecker when healthy. I know that’s few and far between but let’s not forget Ingram was injured most of his early career, same goes for Hendrickson. Also, the Saints don’t trade up unless they absolutely love that player. I would resign him to a low deal to see if he could get over the injury bug when his rookie contract is up. Just my opinion on Davenport.

Not resigning Davenport Armstead, and Hill will save a lot of cash next year.

Water under the bridge. Why dwell on the past? How does that help? Does it make you feel better?

I'm sorry, but I simply do not get the angst over something that has absolutely no present relevance. All of this "what could have been" talk is useless. It's just another excuse to ***** and moan.

True Dat. Surprisingly. Especially with all the talent we let walk gave us with the contract restructures during the offseason.

Don't be surprised to see a new face on the roster with the new cap space Loomis just created with the restructured contracts.
