Which, believe it or not, does win games and Superbowls even. I'm fine with a balanced attack and solid defense! So if they shore up needs in FA then go with BPA in draft, how can you argue |

Re: 2022 NFL Draft: Draft Prospects, Scouting
Jameis Winston PaYds/Gm in 2021 - 148, 111, 128, 226, 279, 222, 56...
Only one game over 250 PaYd; injured in the last game, but he was injured late in the second quarter... Of his 14 PaTDs, nine (9) came in two (2) of seven (7) games - the Green Bay outlier, and the other against a Redskins team missing three of its five DBs... Jameis Winston also had the benefit of playing with the healthier, better offensive linemen this past season and still that were his paltry numbers... Sorry, not sorry, Winston is overrated and we definitely shouldn't overpay - he's not the answer... |
It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

Re: 2022 NFL Draft: Draft Prospects, Scouting
We didn’t have a single starting-caliber WR or TE last season.

Re: 2022 NFL Draft: Draft Prospects, Scouting
This is why I continue to beat a dead horse on WR in the draft / free agency. The last 4 teams standing were DEEP (1-4) at those positions.
Saints would be foolish to ignore this ... again in 2022. There will be playmakers available to us in Free Agency & on draft night. |

Curious, who is the answer at QB in 2022 for New Orleans? Wentz? Mariota? Taysom Hill? Ian Book? The upcoming draft perhaps Speaking of "overpaying"... what was the front office thinking with that Taysom Hill contract? That's a ton of money to give a guy who was injured & a backup. Sean Payton with a lot of lip service on "the next Steve Young is in the building" nonsense. But I digress . |

Re: 2022 NFL Draft: Draft Prospects, Scouting
Lol no offense I would highly upset at this draft we passed up on A LOT of offensive firepower in this scenario not opposed to trading back just NOT for Matt Corral NFL comparison = Jalen Hurts IMO....Heavy RPO first reads NO way we win him in our first year over Jameis. Kenny Pickett Carson Strong Sam Howell Malik Willis I would take OVER Corral
