That's assuming "need" was the motivation for the pick. They obviously had this guy targeted and didn't want to take the chance of losing him. Having a top 30 CB RAS over the last 35 years means there is something special there.

I’m thinking RB Hassan Haskins and… hell if I know. We’ll see who’s available when the time comes.

TE Kolar from Iowa State would be a steal. Might need to move up to get him. I don't want to give up on Trautman yet and I realize this creates a logjam at TE position with Taysom part of the arsenal, but still.

Re: 2022 NFL Draft: New Orleans Saints



Based on the Rich Hill trade chart, with the Saints remaining picks 161 and 194, packaged, the Saints could move up to the last pick of Round 4, first pick of Round 5...

With regards to the Olave trade, Redskins sent the 11th pick (357.62) for the Saints trade package of the 16th, 98th, and 120th (305.41 + 37.68 + 23.1 = 366.19)...

So that's gives the Saints a differential of 8.57 - that's an impressive value swap...

Nitpicking some, but it'd been nice if Loomis could've got the Redskins to send back their pick at 189 (4.97), to gain some juice; but, hey, they're under the clock...

And, as D.A. stated, Olave was their highest rated WR, most complete prospect, and he's probably right, and we got the two players we most needed in this draft...

Mock Drafts got it right for the Saints Olave and Penning, it was just how we got there was the twist...

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

Garret is the better route runner Unless Chris wasn't running routes because his speed was enough cool but his route running needs ALOT of work

That’s a horrendous take.

Hoping for a mean interior lineman and linebacker today.
