But then again, if interested wouldn't you try to devalue the player? That's why this time of year is called the "lying period" by many.

Mahomes - traded up for
Josh Allen - traded up for
Lamar - traded up for
Jordan Love - traded up for
Watson - traded up for

You either have a top pick or you go get your guy. There is no waiting around.

Trubisky - traded up for
Trey Lyles - traded up for
Johnny manziel - traded up for
Paxton Lynch. - traded up for

It cuts both ways….:confused:

Let's not forget that 60% of all first round QB draftees are busts historically. That doesn't mean the other 40% were starters either. It just means they stayed in the league in some capacity for a period of time.

I'd warn to not hang your hat on anything out there this draft.

Wow, what a bunch of bad picks @ QB.

It’s a crap shoot.

I don't see any QB worth the number 9 this year, but we need to draft one at some point.

I'm with Rez, though. Never Shough. Watched some film of Kyle McCord from Syracuse and there were some things to like there. Getting him in the third or beyond might be nice.

With ninth pick, I'm hoping for Membou or Walker now. May be some others I'll be excited about depending on who's there.

And I'm still intrigued by Milroe. Weird how he's getting no love.

It’s come out thst if he returned to the gumps most of the skill players would have entered the portal. If I can find the link I’ll post it

Thank you, Major! I've been saying this for years, especially when it comes to QB's.

He's being compared to the bust Anthony Richardson.

Edit: Not saying I agree, but it's what I am reading and hearing.

Edit: Show More: Some names I’m now hearing for the #Saints to keep an eye on. Bosses would love it to be a QB I’m sure 🤣 but sounds like they are doing a lot of work on these three according to some teams and agents I’ve spoken with. With that being said, they are playing their cards really close to the vest so hard to really get a feel here but sounds like I’m getting some consensus on these 3 names.

-Michigan’s Mason Graham DT
-Georgia LB Jalon Walker
-WR Tetairoa Mcmillan

Right now I'd say he's Taysom Hill with a stronger arm and maybe even less accuracy. 4th round and later? I'm not mad at the experiment.

Well, the wait is finally over. Draft day is here.

I hope Kellen Moore & co go OL or DL at 9.

The battles are won in those trenches.

Wouldn't mind a 3-4 OLB at 9 either

That's Jalon Walker, if he's there at 9.

Anyone get that tweet about Dart?

Re: Turning Attention to the Draft
 
I'd love to see Mason Graham at nine.

turbo_dog 04-24-2025 01:39 PM

Re: Turning Attention to the Draft
 
Some are saying Walter Nolan, DT from Ole Miss, will go before Graham now.

With the Saints picking at 9, I think you'll have a lot of good options.

I just hope the brain trust is past the idea that "we're close".

We need solid draft (see 2017) selections for years down the road.

In Randy Mueller I trust.:confused:
