I know I'm probably in the minority here, but I really want Jared Goff. I like this kid a lot.

How about we trade Sean Payton to the Colts for their first round pick after the season and we'll have two first rounders! Chuck Pagano is probably gonna be let go and Ryan Grigson is the 'tard who gave up a first round pick to trade for Trent Richardson so he'll go for it easily.

You have to give the kid credit in all he has done because he has done it all without an OL to speak of. Like Conner Cook he continues to produce no matter the changes around him.

Joey Bosa DE? #smh

is Joey Bosa a franchise defensive player that can change the saints from day one? I am not there to be honest.

If the saints did sit on top of the heap with the draft defensive class on the board in 2016 I would be a bit miffed if we did not accumulate picks and drop back a couple of spots. No team owning two picks in the first is huge. That means picks in 2017 have to be on the table.

With 2017 and to the lesser part 2018, both are such a huge FA years for the saints, that one would only think accumulating and spreading picks out would only make sense. Your not going to resign every one. A trade with picks spread out through 2018 would IMO be the wise thing to do given the FA situation we will be facing

It has been a while since the NFL has seen a trade like that so we are over due and Joey Bosa might be the ticket. might be. Connor Cook?

I am leaning towards QB Jared Goff is viable. or Jalen Ramsey to take center field next to Byrd and when Byrd is done as a saint he can be take over and head the secondary.

One could argue dropping back is the only way to accumulate enough picks to hit on more than not more. Moving up and giving up, save on a rare few occasions, historically does not work out.

If there is a WR talent like Amari Cooper, Calvin Johnson, AJ Green etc. I'd be all for that. Or an AP-like RB (Fournette will play one more year of college ball). Otherwise I'd like us to find the best defensive talent on the board.

I want to do like all the "experts" wait till after the draft and the season starts and then scream for the best performing draft choice from another team!!!
