Replacing him now with a much younger player would most likely weaken our roster while lowering the average age.
We can't count on one good draft to restock the Shelves in one year though Guido. It's been done before but it's been a rare treat. 2006 and 2017 were good drafts.

The Saints have not drafted well lately. We have way too many draft picks sitting on the sideline being developed and not contributing or are flat out busts. A good draft would do wonders for the team. I have faith in Ireland to find the talent but I don't have faith in the staff to draft the right prospect.

And yet, Demario Davis isn't good enough for the pro bowl...

So, it takes two years. Every year is a new year with new opportunities.

You are aware the Pro Bowl is a popularity contest, right? We have lazy fans. Did you place any votes for Davis or any of our other players, Rugs? I know I did on multiple occasions.

More deserving over Fred Warner & Wagner?

I think it’s important to factor in the level of competition that these players went up against in 2023.

Demario is a dawg but I don’t see it as a snub.

I can certainly see why so many of our fans aren’t grabbing pom poms and dressing up in black and gold tutus to vote in popularity contests like you, especially after the last two seasons of lazy football management by our organization.

I did not have the enthusiasm to go vote this year, but I see your point. Small market teams that are disillusioned probably don't send a lot to the pro bowl.

Edit: I don't think our fans are lazy though. I think that most fans are feeling uninterested, and that's what comes after such high expectations to start the season. Saints fans are simply uninterested in the product the Saints have put out under Dennis Allen and the front office isn't offering any hope that there will be any changes coming soon. You may have heard that Mickey Loomis believes that we have the right people in the building.

I wonder if there are any odds available in Vegas as to whether Pete Carmichael winds up in Denver? That's a bet I'd lie to get in on.

Notice he never specified in what positions, though, did he?
