New Orleans Saints Draft - 2024

04-25-2024, 10:16 PM

And only 22 years of age.

I believe Fuaga will transition well to the NFl.

20 picks and still no LB or DB taken. This is the strangest draft in my lifetime.

Who do you think we'll move up for in the second round?

My favorite metric on him: ZERO sacks allowed in 25 starts over 2 years! I am ecstatic over this pick!

He's been my OL crush since the combine!

Would love to have the picks to move up for one of these falling CB but wouldn't want to be giving away next years picks as if everything doesn't fall perfect they could be really high picks and this teams needs a massive youth injection from the next few drafts

On a side note: Falcons once again do a head scratcher and pick Penix at 8.

This after signing Cousins to a 4 year $180 million contract.

I heard someone say that their Draft pick was like buying a dozen eggs. Then instead of buying bacon... they buy more eggs!!! LOL

He trash

Falcons got a QB of the future. I think he’s gonna give us hell for six to ten years.

Happy with our pick. Wanted Olu but it is what it is.

Like what the Chargers did.

Like what the Vikings did even though I don’t like JJ.

I think the problem is that if the Falcons got their QB of the future, why did they just pay $180 million for a lame duck QB??? Would the Saints have a ring if immediately after signing Brees, they drafted Matt Leinart too instead of giving Brees a weapon in Reggie Bush? Would the Bucs have a ring if immediately after signing Brady, instead of using their 1st round pick on Tristan Wirfs, they drafted Jordan Love? Sure, Love would be great for the future, but they probably dont win it all in 2020 without Wirfs. How many rings did the Packers win with Favre after drafting Rodgers, or with Rodgers after drafting Love? How many rings did the Ravens win with Flacco after drafting Jackson, the Eagles with Wentz after drafting Hurts, or the Chiefs with Smith after drafting Mahomes. The fact is, once you draft a 1st round QB, you give up on winning it all with your veterans starter. Giving up on Cousins before he plays a snap after giving him $180 million is a financial disaster, and for all we know if they got a Wirfs or Reggie instead and Cousins plays well, maybe they could have won it all.
