Also, It wouldn't just be trading back, it'd be trading up too. It'd be going both ways and meeting in the middle.

I find it VERY amusing that I'm seeing Eagles fans talking about our pick next year being top 10 and possibly top 5. They aren't the brightest fans around.

This is a very strange trade when you look at it. Saints move up two spots, passing the Chargers. Is there someone they think the Chargers would take that they want? And then they move back one spot to have another first rounder.

I think this draft has a lot of value with the second round. Any of you who have done the draft simulators can see the plethora of talent in the second round. I'd rather have three second rounders than two firsts.

The last time (2017) we had 2 picks in the 1st round we landed Ramz and Lattimore. Actually, that whole class was very, very good.

2022 could be another stellar draft for the Saints.

Can't wait.

Just avoid the QB's like the plague.

Right now it really doesn't look like a good trade imo. But the Saints love to mortgage their future.

Maybe they have a plan, but to me it looks a little like they're throwing picks away here. I guess if they go deep into the playoffs and that first next year ends up being at the back end of the 1st round, it would make more sense. But I just don't think the Saints are going to do better than an 8 to 10 win season.

I just don't think we have our franchise QB on the roster right now. And we just gave up our 1st round pick next year when the draft will reportedly have a better QB class.

It's hard to see a better season than that. Too many unknowns

1. New head coach
2. Will MT come back as much of a force as he used to be?
3. Will Winston be the QB?
4. Will Kamara even play after the Vegas trouble?
5. What's the O line look like now?

So we definitely getting a WR in the 1st round... and an OT.

Sweet !

Here's my new mock draft with the updated pics. (2022 PFF Draft Simulator)
