Six QB's were drafted in the first round of this year's draft. history tells us that four of those will probably never be a regular starter in the league. One may become another Carr or Kirk Cousins type. One might turn out to be a top 10 type QB in the league. The question is which one would that be?

As for our offensive line, from everything I've read the offensive philosophy being introduced by Kubiak is supposed to be far more o-line friendly. I'm hoping that is true.
With the contract that our (dis) organization gave Carr, chances of finding anyone better are not slim… they are none.

Haener or Rattler could very well be better in the near future.

It’s not about luck. It’s about recognizing where your strengths lie, and focusing on it as a priority, and kicking the Raider-Refuse to the curb.

And then what? Where do the strengths lie. How, and more importantly who, do you get to cultivate them.

Same old song: Fire Allen.

You call Allen a limp-d*ck. So, your plan is to fire him and then just not have a head coach?

So, it's not about luck. Then what is your plan so that luck is not needed?

That is currently an open question. Kubiak has a year to get those guys up to speed so they can make some decisions in the next off season.

That contract is not ironproof. If there were a guy that the Saints were willing the spend the money on, they could construct another contract to make it work.

Fact of the matter is because Carr's contract balloons after this year, something is going to have to give. So, if the Saints wanted someone else, they could designate him as a post June 1 trade/cut and get in a new guy.

But as always, who might that be? Tua? Now you've gone from $35 mil/year to $50M/year.

Who better could the Saints have gotten last off season when they picked up Carr? And why when top tier QBs are making $50M/year plus would you think the Saints could get a top 10 QB for anything less?

Only Atlanta choked in an unchokable situation... Life is definitely good.

I'm fine with that. You are the one trashing him and the Saints organization for choosing and paying him at every turn. I'm just asking you how would you do better in your "well managed" organization.
