Have you considered they didn't want any of those players you mentioned? Just because you, or some so-called draft expert, like a player doesn't mean the team has any desire, at all for any number of reasons, to draft that player.

Just saying.

That's all you are doing is "JUST SAYING" and I'm responding to you speaking on behalf of the organization. You said the reasons I replied if your trading away picks for what they got IMO that wasn't a win now move have you considered your words right

Re: 2022 NFL Draft: New Orleans Saints

Olave, by the Saints brass and mostly by consensus, has the highest floor of the top WR's in the draft. Clearly we put a premium on getting the surest thing we could at WR. So in a way we did draft based on need with the move up for Olave - which you can't blame the Saints for, based on the historically low production we had at that position in 2021.

Re: 2022 NFL Draft: New Orleans Saints

If the Saints are in win NOW mode as most of you claim justifying the picks with that notion then these 2 picks should be plug n play impact players day 1 and if they aren't we could have went a different route and grabbed other needs or at least better players for those needs

The acquisition of players able to help us wiN"IMMEDIATELY" did not have to come with us giving up 2 middle round picks for it agree or disagree I stand on it.

You can't win NOW without special teams, Rell. Don't forget we moved on from several special teamers this off-season.

You're absolutely right that doesn't mean draft a 4th round project in the second......oh wait they had to do that because they were so in Love with Olave. Drafting Olave isn't my issue what we loss to get him is

If they had Olave as their #1 choice at WR then I have zero issue at their doing whatever it takes to get him.
