this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; At least we'll have a high first round draft pick next year! Oh, that'll go to the only undefeated NFC team in the NFL so far......

Re: Observations from the Saints Loss at Panthers
Lets say there is a QB we like who is expected to go #1 overall. If we had the #1 overall pick we could just take him. If we had a top 5 pick we could trade up. What sort of package would you propose that Loomis offer for the #1 overall pick that doesnt include any current year 1st rounders? What is the precedent that such a trade would be accepted? What if we want a player who will go 5th or 10th in the 1st? How much will we have to give up with no 1st rounder at all to offer? Seems like the cost will be exorbitant? Trading future picks is like taking out a loan with high interest. Now you are talking about taking out one high interest loan to pay another.

That said, we didn't waste our 2023 1st. We used it to get arguably the best rookie WR in the draft and what could end up being our starting LT for the next decade. Sounds like a pretty good deal to me. |

Re: Observations from the Saints Loss at Panthers
Well it was used to address a very important need in us getting a starting LT. I'm not ready to write off this season after 3 weeks, and we haven't seen him play in the regular season yet.

Re: Observations from the Saints Loss at Panthers
Me either, shawnky. Hopefully that 1st rounder the Eagles got will be quite a bit lower than they hope. And if what we are seeing out of Hurst is any indication, I can't wait to see Penning back on the field. At least it will give a more of a sense of aggressiveness than we've seen thus far.
