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

We will see. Obviously the Saints didn’t see it that way. I’m not a big fan of the way they have historically traded up. I am on record saying the Davenport pick was a mistake (pick not the player). However, in this case, after an early run of Defensive players drafted, the picks were all OTs or WRs. I’m guessing the team had high grades on 2 or 3 of each. Once those started to dwindle they secured what they wanted. I hope it works out. Don’t you?

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

Do I hope the Saints giving up the 3rd n 4thrnd picks missing out some sleeper prospects and potential impact players doesn't bite them in the ass YES I DO. Do I think Chris will be a good player? YES I DO.? Do I think Chr8s Olave was worth what we loss in relation to what we needed ? No I DONT.

Was Jeff Ireland involved as much I'm curious to know.

Fair enough, but you are covering all your bases there. I’m saying if Olave succeeds with the Saints then the extra picks were worth it. You are saying if he succeeds then any other WR would succeed and it’s not worth it.

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