This is what I'm expecting, too.

I'm down with this

Makes me wonder if his knee will ever be back to 100%.

Boy, that rookie (pre-injury) season he was almost unblockable.

I like the way you think. :chug:.

Be prepared for surprises.

In 2015 the Saints 1st round picks were Andrus Peat and Stephone Anthony
In 2018 (and 2019) the Saints picked Davenport in the 1st round
In 2020 the Saints picked Ruiz in the 1st round
In 2021 the Saints picked Payton Turner in the 1st round
All of those picks surprised me at the time.

Every pick is a surprise for me. Beyond the top eight to ten names that are plastered all over the place for the month before the draft I haven't heard of any of these players. That's what what I look forward to when it comes to the actual days of the draft. Getting to learn about our new players.

Every year it's the same thing. It seems like 2/3rd's, or more, of all fans are pissed off after the draft because their team didn't pick who they wanted or expected. Having no specific wants or expectations I also have no disappointments, I suppose. Just looking forward to "meeting" our new players!

I doubt you are alone in that, Cam. :D

2nd contracts are often the costliest.

If we're going to do a 2nd contract for anybody, we should make a run at BDJ, QB Jeaux Burreaux. Would Cincy be crazy enough to drag it out like the Lamar Jackson saga?

I doubt it. The whole ordeal with Jackson is his style of play. Way too much risk to buy in that much. Burrow doesn't present anywhere near that degree of risk.
