Really!!! With 2 picks saints classified as winners?

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I am happy for people to get 1 or 2 players out of draft and think that is a success(mike Ditka). To build a franchise into dynasty you need to draft more than just 2 players....

So I understand you.

The Saints became insane and 4 picks have absolutely no upside or chance of becoming something great?

No I didn't say that. My concern is that they will be on IR til they rookie contract is over or worst they be cut. They do have potential but is the risk worth the reward from where they were selected in the draft?

How is this year any different from past?

Ivory......

Morgan.....

Butler.......

Vilma.... People still want to keep him

Hartley.... Same as Vilma

4th round and below are not starters, what difference does it make this season if they need time to heal but have more upside than healthier draft picks?

So what if 4th or below are cut? If they don't make it, next man up. We are allowed to have 53 and there will be over 80 at camp.


Other than 2012.... When has Sean screwed this team? I believe some are still suffering PTSD from the Pre Payton era.


Here is a riddle for you... Who was the last team that looked like champions on paper and ended up champions? Don't say Seattle they are full of 5,6 round picks. Someone is finding obscure talent, taking a risk, and making them better. Just like Payton does.

You know who wasn't laughing at Percy Harvin getting paid and only playing in a hand full of plays? Denver.
