Turning Attention to the Draft

Stay put at 9, select the best player on the board.

Oline, dline, WR … whatever. We need quality players & year 1 contributors.

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.

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