2022 NFL Draft: New Orleans Saints

Rell&Gold · 04-30-2022, 02:20 PM

We should not have gave up 3 picks to move up 5 spots to draft Olave that jump was unnecessary and too much. The second rbd pick from Ten I don't have clue what their intentions are the LB Appalachian st? We should have traded back with the 16th pick racked up on more picks to fill holes now no RB nO TE 1 WR No DT Saints failed this draft on paper I'm sorry

Sorry but I don’t see it that way. Detroit moved up to get Alabama’s guy right after us. If we wanted Olave (or another top rated WR) then we had to move up. Otherwise we take the same tackle at 16 rather than 19. Just my take of course.

Jameson is the better Prospect

Maybe. Maybe not. We'll likely not know for some time as he may not even be able to play this season. We are wanting to win NOW, not nope a player can contribute the following season.

That's your opinion mines is that if you trade up that damn high and give up what you gave up you get the best guy Jameson Williams was the better guy pre injury he was THE #1 WR prospect. If winning nkw was the goal trading away draft picks for a first rd wr was too much

Maybe so, but that’s not the point. Neither he or Olave would have been available at 16. That’s why both Det and we moved up. Otherwise at 16 we are drafting a WR with a perceived much lower ceiling.

Who cares Olave doesn't equal SB. ANY of those WRs taken in the first would have just fine.

Fine for who? Perhaps for you, but apparently not for them. They put far more hours into this process than any of us. I trust they have a better idea of what is best for them than any of us.

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?

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.
