The experts that made Daniel Jones a top 10 pick and felt Jalen Hurts was a project? The experts that thought Mitch Trubisky was accurately rated over Patrick Mahomes? The experts that thought Lamar Jackson should move to WR? At least watch the games and come to your own conclusions.

I don't like players because of their color or their last name. I want them because they will make the Saints better. I do however believe you interject race into everything. You had a Louis Farrakahn quote at the bottom of your posts. He spews nothing but hate. That is who you align yourself with. For the life of me I don't know how the mods allowed that for so long. Now you have another racist quote at the bottom. He was a head of one of the most racist gangs in America (black panther party).

I didn't mention race. I think you just brought it up, but go off I guess. You feel how you feel about me and that's cool. The feelings and ideologies of many on this forum over the years aren't lost on me. Happy Mardi Gras.

Round 2, Pick 40: TE Elijah Arroyo, Miami (FL)

Arroyo put together a strong senior season at Miami, recording 756 yards and seven touchdowns on 48 catches — 357 of those yards coming after the catch.

However, his true breakout came during Senior Bowl week, where he was nearly uncoverable in practice.

He showcased impressive agility, precise route-running for his size and outstanding body control, solidifying his stock as a dynamic pass-catching threat.

Here is an edge rusher projected in the 2nd - 4th round, in case we don't address that in the first round. Michigan had a pretty stacked team, as did Ohio State last year. Josiah is a little small, but has some strength and quickness.

Really DGAF if it's Prime's kid or not, or if Prime brings more attention to us as a result of his kid being on the team. If he's a talent and we can get him at a cheap draft pick (not a #1), and Prime won't make a fuss a la Mannings, why not add him? You never know, he might just be better than the Bayou Rattler, or Pretty Boy, certainly better than Carr at this point in his career.

What about the kid from LSU?

I think he has a chance to slide and he said he already looks good in Black and Gold. As a prospect he'd be better under the Sean Payton regime because he's very accurate pocket passer who can extend the play with his legs but doesn't want to. He's perfect for that West Coast offense where you dink and dunk then take the top off the defense. And he's going to attract free agents wherever he ends up. His name has gravity.

I hope they give him a serious look. Looks fluid and good hands.

Probably gone on Day 2 (rd 2-3).

I guess we'll see shortly what HC Kellen Moore thinks. He's stated already that he adapts his offense to the personnel on hand. I think we've seen that already too with the run game in Philly. First date to keep an eye on is March 17th, the D Carr injury deadline for his non-throwing hand.

Father is Jason Taylor, also his uncle is Zach Thomas. Did not know the latter. Saints need to get this can't miss, as the commentators described him.
