this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I understand the sound of the arguement of "but they had a better draft than us!", but that isn't the biggest thing. You can only grade your teams draft versus what your team needs and plays...and Meachem was the BPA ...

You can only grade your teams draft versus what your team needs and plays...and Meachem was the BPA at a position of need. We HAD to get a solid WR that didn't have to be the #1 and we got what many called the #2 guy overall, behind only a dude that breaks every physical mold ever created for the position...not too shabby. Besides, Branch was the DT left that would have been picked and he had questions that made him drop past a couple of other teams that could have used him. I mean, comparing our draft this year versus another team's, to me, is like my friend that keeps harping about how the panthers beat us twice last year...who cares, cuz in the end we were in the NFCC and they were watching. Pyrrhic victory in my mind. I think we drafted just fine...as long as most of those guys make it through camp. |
