I still have issues with Beasley. Pre combine he was a pick 10-20 then post good numbers and suddenly is a potential top 5 pick. Also his weight,its one think putting on 15lb for the combine its another holding that weigjt through the season. I dont like the thought of giving up two first rounders that it could well take.

Re: Shane Ray, Pot

bad news is with all them doping the draft up all the players we talk about will be off the board.

so trading down from 13 seems to be a better idea with each passing day.

I am liking the round 1 talent more and more in 2016. so stocking piling picks in 2016 looks to be more appealing than ever as this draft goes up in smoke with all the head cases in 2015

I am to the point trade both round 1. get firsts and seconds in 2016 and load up with 2nd round picks this year which is about were this draft talent really should start at

While the argument could be made for this, I can't see Loomis/Payton basically bowing out on the 1st round following a 7-9 campaign.

Not to say either is on the hot seat, but if they do what you are suggesting and the team struggles again with this more favorable schedule, they could find their seats warm in 2016.

Brees will be gone after 2015 if 2015 doesn't result in a minimum of 2 playoff games for the Saints.

Then you're really pressed to win - trying to find a QB that can hold his jock

Disagree; Brees will be here until he decides to retire... Even after he retires as a player, he will have the opportunity to be in the organization if he so chooses

"Dion Jordan, 3rd pick in 2013, is being suspended for 2015 season for another substance abuse policy violation, league sources told ESPN."


Yeah, draft these guys (ray...) What could go wrong?

Re: Shane Ray, Pot

NEW ORLEANS SAINTS
Total picks: 9
Top-50 picks: 3
Top-100 picks: 5


Outlook: The Saints paid a price to have five picks among the top 78 selections, trading away Pro Bowl tight end Jimmy Graham and a promising young receiver in Kenny Stills. So the team has added need at those positions. And word around the league is that Sean Payton has put a renewed emphasis this year on finding the right type of guys, from a character standpoint, which could be a little limiting. But there's no question that Payton and GM Mickey Loomis are in prime position to rebuild the defense and the interior of the offensive line -- and maybe move around the board some, too -- with this impressive war chest of draft capital.
I don't think we have to worry about "issues", not this year...

Truth is,anybody we draft can have problems that nobody knows about until one day during their career something comes up.We've had our share of issues on our team in the past with players. Will Smith was suspended at least once that I can think of for using PED's and was in the news for domestic abouse,and who knew Joe Morgan was an alcoholic?lol But as far as Ray...I really didn't want the Saints picking him anyway.

that's true, and why it is even worse if you select someone knowing they come to you wit past issues, youre just begging for thm to screw you.

Wasn't Smith's PED thing overturned or something or it was starcaps or some crap?

On December 2, 2008, Smith was one of six players suspended for use of Bumetanide a diuretic, which can be used as a masking agent for steroid use. It is believed that the diuretic was found in StarCaps, a weight-loss supplement that he had been taking.
