You don't think Connor McGovern, Vadal Alexander, or someone like that would have been better than what we currently have? Or Tretolo from Arkansas. All could have been had in the 4th, and a couple could have been had without trading up.

I don't think the Saints passed on any of them because they weren't good enough. They obviously had their hearts set on the player whose name is already eluding my memory.

they better be burning the phone lines for any and all Offensive Lineman that are available in UDFA

His "declined" play is still better than anything we could have picked up in the draft as a rookie guard. Brees is going to extend/restructure anyway. Of course, you reportedly blocked me because I hurt your feelings so you can't read this unless someone quotes and replies.

And please NO Evans.

I'm sorry, didn't Jahri Evans visit the Bills and fail his physical?

There are plenty of depth players in the UDFA pool.

No. Where did you here that. I read they didn't have the cap space to match his demand. Jahri has learned what his real market value is by now.
