Hopefully Carr is as impactful as we hope and he's around for eight years or more. I'm sure that has to be the plan. We do need a backup so taking a QB at some point does make sense. Hopefully they never have to play a meaningful snap for the Saints, however.

I've changed my mind here. I kind of fell in love with Hooker but QB isn't a top priority. The Saints have to fill positions of need through the draft and free agency.

That said, the Saints should get the player that grades out the highest when drafting so if Hooker or another good looking QB is the best option then by all means, draft him.

Thanks to everyone for posting clips of players they like in the draft. This is my chance to get a feel for what's available each year. Knowledge is power.

Repeat post (#152) on a player but...

Nolan Smith - DE
Georgia

He probably won't be there at 29, however, I'd take him. Power, athletic & has leadership traits in college. The heartbeat of the locker room.

ZERO character concerns.

He sounds like the type of player the Saints target who become leaders on the field as well as impact players. I like it!

So what you’re saying is we should wait till he drops to the second round then trade next years first to move up to get him?
