Unfortunately I've heard it numerous times before now.

We are not trading up to pick Sanders. You heard it here (for about the 100th time)

Remember Sean P added almost 25 players back in 06 to remake the team. Coach Moore won’t be able to do this in one season, so I see at minimum a two year process.

Just need two healthy drafts, back to back and they can add 7- 10 new players in each draft, then some bonus free agents in each year.

Hitting on those 2025/26 draft picks becomes paramount for the long term success of the franchise.
Always is... Saints just lost their way of late in their drafts. Let's hope for a bumper crop this year and next.

Yup! This is the time of year, especially since the advent of world wide web blogging, that shovels full of assorted excrement are tossed toward the media walls to see what might adhere. Those walls are extremely slick and washed regularly once the league year advances.

Some might argue that the lack of ability to develop those draft choices may have had a hand in the failures.

Re: Turning Attention to the Draft

Don’t forget guys I did call a trade up in the first round of the draft a few years ago! I think I even won the draft contest that year? I really do think they are willing to give up #9 this year and our next 2 first rounders to land Ward! The 2027 1st rounder could change to a couple of lower picks to make the value for the Titans more than reasonable for both parties!

Re: Turning Attention to the Draft

This is a huge red flag and I hope the Saints avoid him.

Sorry I always struggle with posting from the Twitter.

Per Nick Underhill regarding ASU WR McMillan:
This is a big question to answer for someone who could be an option for the Saints at No. 9.

McMillan says in this clip that he doesn't watch football, struggles to watch film and never watches it by himself.

With the cap situation, the needs of this team, that would be utter suicide. So Loomis will probably do it. He's as much a moron you can find in football.
