Patriots love LSU players.

Oh for F*cks-sake!

SP would have taken Odell if he'd been there for us...he wasn't...

32 NFL teams didn't draft Lael Collins...so you'd have to corral them in you LSU hate sub-group along with SP...

Devery was an awful second round pick that Sean Payton and Curtis Johnson were able to reclaimate rather than cut loose...

Payton and Loomis did everything within reason to draft Glenn Dorsey, but the Chiefs' President Carl Peterson held the fifth pick for a King's ransom...

They still gaffed though and took USC Sedrick Ellis who promptly held out and never worked a day in his life for the Saints and its fans...

SP doesn't hate on LSU...

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

Peyton didn't draft Henderson if I recall correctly. Those who don't believe this bias always bring up guys we wanted to draft but didn't. I love how the Cardinals raid LSU and SEC players. I bet the Cardinals D is great this year with Peterson, Matthieu, NKimdiche and others. Peyton likes big 10 and Midwest players. There are too many awesome LSU players in the NFL for the Saints to have zero. Kwon Alexander 4.3 40, 3rd Rd pick starts for Tampa. Stanley Jean Baptiste over Jarvis Landry. KV over Eric Reid. I could go on and on. We won't take Fournette no matter what, even though all of Louisiana would love it and hes more athletic than AP. I think Peyton s worst trait is talent evaluation especially in early Rds. We have hit on some late picks and free agents. When was the last time we drafted a great first Rd pick? Or 2nd?

Jesus H Christ not this again...

Mickie heard someone from LSU say something he didn't like while the opposing sidelines were bugged!

Does this prove they hate LSU? No it doesn't. More importantly Does it prove they DON'T? Well there you have it!!! I think I'll call it "The no Proof, Proof"

And I don't see any Vandy players either. WTF???

How about Florida, Arkansas, S Carolina, Kentucky?

Who would we want from Vandy? Jay Cutler? None of those teams you mentioned put out as many top round talents as LSU.

That being said, I don't actually believe he "hates" LSU. But as I've said in the past, it's very odd when you have a local team that puts out that many players in positions of need, that you wouldn't at least take late round picks on them. It almost seems like Sean wants to make a point that he isn't going to cave into fan pressure. He shouldn't take a player just because he plays for any of the teams in Louisiana. But LSU is one of those teams that consistently puts out elite talent.

The Patriots, Cardinals and Bills seem to think very highly of LSU players. The Saints think very highly of Ohio State players. If you pay close enough attention, you will notice that certain teams build something of a pipeline with particular schools. It isn't just luck. I think it's a trust thing, as well.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
