Rizzi you are permitted to win this game but do not screw us out of a top 5 pick!

I really think the positioning of 1st round picks are somewhat overrated. You really only have a slightly better shot of a player picked higher being successful than one from later in the round. I believe the 5th year option is what matters the most and all 32 picks come with that.

I believe winning a series of games down the stretch would help the future of the team's culture more than any possible gain from a higher pick.

I just can never imagine myself wanting my Saints to lose any game. Even if every pick was a surefire slam dunk.

Kind of figured that and I wasn't actually responding directly to you, 76. I used what you posted as a lead into what I had been thinking. I almost deleted the quote part of my post but left it for relevancy. I'm seeing a ton of "fans" on twitter honestly wanting us to lose out. The are probably a few around here that feel the same way.

To me the draft picks are what they're going to be and I have never even been that concerned for the most part until it was time for them to be used. An exception are the picks we got from the Redskins. I want them to lose every remaining game this season because it helps us without affecting our winning this season.
