added to ignore list, good luck brother.

Fine ignore the truth, mickey loomis is getting paid great to do it.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

Maybe we will trade one of the first rounders for Calvin Ridley. Mickey Loomis loves betting on his team, Calvin Ridley loves betting on his team. Seems like a match made in heaven.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

I'm not trying to be negative. I just think we got the **** at the end of the stick in this trade. Haven't seen a report yet that indicates otherwise.

My point is that we traded next years 1st which is going to be a good QB draft.

I just don't agree with it. But I'm just a fan. No one cares about my opinion. lol

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

I read an article on this that mentions that filling positions with draft picks instead of free agents will help the cap down the road.

The Saints now have 3 picks in the top 50 picks of the draft.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

Take a chill pill, dude. LOL!

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

Good idea.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

OK, I have neither the time nor the patience to figure out how to block you tonight. "Ignore the truth", and what truth would that be? That our Saints have been CAP strapped since 2009 have won a SB, and how many times have won playoff games and we have managed to sign a lot a of top rated free agents over the that time frame? I don't get it, would you like to offer a better GM? Anyone can complain, but if you don't offer a solution...so what?

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

Loomis is no dummy. He weighs the talent in years in his determinations for making trade, it's not just a scale of the worth of what a pick is. If his selections turn out to be right, and the talent at the positions we go after is scarce next year, then it is a good trade. If the opposite is true, it's a bad one. Everything in these drafts can't just be weighed on a scale, every year is different.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

We won’t get CJ Stroud or Bryce Young in the draft next year even with a 1st. Teams are tanking for those kids. Anthony Richardson is the third ranked prospect I believe but he’s kind of similar to Cam Newton. I’m not sure many in the forum would want him anyway, but I wouldn’t be surprised if he made it to the 2nd round. It’ll be okay.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

Kind of early to show your hand?

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

Don’t worry normand…I care 😜

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

Your answer to number one really shows you don't deal with reality. Your answer to number two is possibly right, but the way you say it with such certainty is perhaps one reason people call you narcissistic. You have no idea if MT will be the same player he was two seasons ago.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

In fairness, if they don’t draft a WR or LT and if Winston sucks running the O then a first round pick next year isn’t going to be enough to fix the problems anyway.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

You and about 31 other teams want Loomis fired.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

Saints got the better end of that deal if you ask me

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

Saints would have to trade picks away to get CJ or Bryce next year. Regardless of how the Saints play they won't play bad enough to have a top 15 pick

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

It’s so weird how the “analysts” don’t like this trade because they basically believe the Saints shouldn’t be trying to compete this year.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

It is an optimistic point of view versus pessimistic point of view. I would be concerned if his game was not heavily dependent upon preparation, knowledge, and the ability to catch anything thrown in his vicinity. He was still making plays on that bad ankle two years ago. I see no reason for him not to be just as effective as he was before the injury.

As for the new coach, Allen is still in direct charge of the defense and the offensive staff remains mostly intact with the addition of one of the best offensive line coaches in the game in Doug Marrone. The notable absence is Payton whom several around here felt was holding the team back.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

This is what I like most about the Saints under Loomis. They are always trying to compete every year. For the past decade and a half we have always had the chance of making the playoffs. We haven't had a single season where we were a third of the way through the season and already looking at draft positions like in the past.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

It is not pessimistic to ask, "Will Michael Thomas be the same player he once was after not playing for one and a half years due to injury?" It's just understanding there is some uncertainty.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

Yeah, Guido has been unquestioningly in support of a CGM during all his troubles I’ll say that for him.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

Legitimate concern.

I'm in the same camp as you as it relates to MT.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

Given he has been arguably the most impactful WR in the NFL in the past decade I feel that support is warranted. He was always described as having a chip on his shoulder and a hunger to be the best. I'm expecting that chip and hunger to still be there.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

Only if one is concerned over his desire and determination. His game has never been dependent on his physical abilities. The guy only ran a 4.57 40. His vertical was only in the 44 percentile. His 60 yard shuttle was in the bottom 4th.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

Me too. But even if he comes back 75% as good he once was. He’ll still be fairly dangerous, paired with a good no. 2

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

I like it! Remember, there is a very good chance that Payton comes back to coaching and we restock heavily again next year. Ain't skeered! :couch:

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

Like they did for Johnathon Sullivan!

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

Ikem Ekwonu - LT - NC State

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

I sure hope we don’t combine those picks to move up. I think we should stay put and grab what the draft gives us. They’ll be plenty of talent when it’s our turn.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

"COULD'A, WOULD'A, SHOULD'A & WHAT IF" THE 4 HOARSEMEN OF B&G!!! HI-YO LOOMIS! AWAY!!

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

As far as using the two firsts to trade up… No chance. Trading up would mean we’ve used 3 firsts, a second, a third and a seventh to get said player.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

This. No one in this draft is worth that.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

Good pro prospect & potential Day 1 star. High IQ player/all-academic team.

His father is a Doctor and he has a brother playing at Notre Dame.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

Sully....lmao!!!! What a wasted pick. bahahahahaha

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

The chip isn’t in question. His ankle is.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints shake up first round of 2022 NFL draft with multi-pick trade
 

I think we get two day 1 starters in round 1 while filling two major holes - LT and WR.

Give Jameis the ammo he needs. If he can’t succeed, you find a QB next year
