Will say we definitely need some help opposite Mike to open the field and those guys will be there Day 2...

My favorites on Day 2 are Alex Pierce and Skyy Moore - so this tweet really caught my eye...

In today’s NFL, you need weapons at WR 1-4. The more skilled & polished the better. Pass happy league. See Cincy, RAMS, Bills & KC. Saints also need a TE.

Depending on MT & a bunch of role players won’t be the answer. Lord knows you sure as hell can’t count on Trequan on 3rd and 7 to extend a drive.

If Dennis A goes WR in round 1, I won’t be mad at all.

And I do like the tape with Pierce.

Agreed and like I said before. We don’t know if MT will be the opoy top 3 elite or just good. We can draft a game changer WR in the first now. Without having to do it a couple years from now, when you might have to move up to get one. Get it while they’re cheap. I do like Pierce as well and if we draft him in the 3rd as well, I’d be more than excited.

Understand that, but why spend a first round pick on a player you won't be able to afford to re-sign?

Now if you're looking to move on from #CantGuardMike, I get it, otherwise, draft your WRz and WRs...

The object is to win now and that requires obtaining the best players you can possibly get now. Why worry about whether you can sign those player four or five years from now? The vast majority of GM's and coaches won't even be with the team then UNLESS they were doing everything they could do to win now.

IKR ?!

Hopefully a smokescreen 💨.

Remember a few years back, the “rumors” had the Saints selecting Lamar Jackson & we hit em over the head with Marcus Davenport?

Different coach at the time though … ;)

The most powerful voice in sports media is the league source

We’re basically left with three scenarios here, none of them good…

1) The league sources miscommunicated what they knew at the time to Mortensen, leading the bad information to be published.

2) The league sources had no idea what was going on and chose to talk to Mortensen anyways.

3) The league sources intentionally misled Mortensen with false information.

Could see that happening if we miss on Penning, or Saints offense like his athleticism more...

For me, sleeper WR is Christian Watson.

When the dust settles (3 years from now), he could end up as one of the best receivers from this 2022 class.

That's why you take him in the first round with one of our picks. How often does a Randy Moss come around?

I think he'll be available on Day 2.

Most of the "experts" believe he will be a complimentary #3 in the NFL.

But then again, what the hell do they know that we don't :p?

He'll be gone by the time their second round pick comes around. But they can pick up a decent tackle/guard in the very same round.

Kansas City has gotten it done with a TE, Kelce, and a WRz, Cheetah; the rest are all interchangeable...

So, we've got a Top 3 WRx in Thomas and all we should need is a WRz; and don't forget we've got a Kamara parked out back...
