This is why you shouldn't listen to anyone really, especially media.

I also think the delay is in part because they didn't realize how bad this INCENTIVE PROGRAM that players run is embedded in every fiber of every team.

They could call the first ever press conference in Prime Time. They can call it the Commissioners State of the Union. Pay Per View here we come!

I'm really hoping they take away our first rounders......
when was the last time we selected someone in the 1st who actually earned their pay.......?

"crickets, crickets"

id trade our 1st every year for extra picks in 4, 5 and 6....lol

I hope we don't lose any draft picks at all and it's just fines and suspensions...

Well, I know it's subjective to some extent, but I do think the Saints have done a pretty decent job with their 1st round picks in recent years:

2004: Will Smith
2005: Jammal Brown
2006: Reggie Bush
2007: Robert Meachem
2008: Sedrick Ellis
2009: Malcolm Jenkins
2010: Patrick Robinson
2011: Cameron Jordan
2011: Mark Ingram

All of these guys earned the pay with maybe the exception of Ellis, who hasn't performed to the level at which a 1st rounder in expected to, but nevertheless, that is some very solid drafting since there are no real busts among them.

I think that list is favorably comparable to most other teams' 1st round draft picks during the same time span.

It's going to happen sometime this week.

Got a feeling they going to let the Manning hysteria cool down before they dish out the Saints punishment ..... any day from now to Friday
