I think the OP meant guys coming straight out of college (LSU).

We picked up Delvin from the CFL and Lewis was acquired from Pittsburgh.

Yes sir. But without a top 10 pick (which I don't want, unless it comes by trade) we probably won't even come close to him.

Don't forget the little known "Gone but not forgotten" clause John Mecom put in about drafting local talent. It's in the same section that stated all of Rich Mauti's kids had to be signed!

Yes, a large number of WHODATS watch the TIGERS. In most cases, it's LSU 1st, Saints 2nd. I will admit, I fall into that crowd. Anyway, SP and Mickey have passed on some really good talent. Yes, there are bust players that come out of LSU, but not many. I still don't like the fact that we passed on Tunsil. O-Line woes have been preached about and preached about here and we let the best Tackle pass. That's JMO.

We let too many Good LSU products pass by to other teams. I'm sorry, but SEC players are more physically capable to start in the NFL, then any other conference.

Yes I love the Tigers and hate Alabama but I bleed Black and Gold.

Anybody think that Devery Henderson was a mistake?

Personally I am not an LSU fan and could care less, i just want the right people like we all do.

At this point in time, we all have the luxury of hind sight.

Heck no. DH played a solid 9 years (all but one in New Orleans), was able to take the lid off defenses and open up things underneath. Oh, and per historical stats data (yeah I looked it up) he had the highest per yard catch average TWICE & finished 2nd in Saints history. Dude even had a nice Super Bowl ... 7 catches for 61 yards.

No way we would have won a Championship without Devery on this team.

There doesn't have to be some great conspiracy to admit that it's extremely odd how little the Saints ever go after LSU players. I don't want them to take players just because they are local. But when you have a program that puts out that many NFL players, and is right in your back yard where you can easily scout them, it's hard to believe that timing is the only factor.

It's just weird. They don't go after enough SEC players, in general. I don't have any numbers in front of me, but it seems like SEC players have a very high rate of success compared to most, if not all other conferences.
