If we can go from 27th to say 18th in that department we are going to make the playoffs.

Fournette will be there when the Panthers pick. His poor performances at the combine insured that.

As much as id love to redress the rosters RBs there are more pressing needs
Id be a bit disapointed if we got an extra 1st and used it on a RB this year. Next year id be ok with if a few holes were fixed.

I prefer run first football with a strong D but i think them days are gone.
The league rules changes have made a Baltimore early 00 D impossible. Its about getting playmakers in the backfield and pressure in the front 7 these days imo. rush the passer and have the players capable of turnovers ready to capitalise in the backfield

Unforunatley we have neither. So get the front 7 sorted,get another couple of DBs and get the O line stronger is the best place to start

Not one mention of Jimmy Garroppolo in this thread, not saying it is but Payton might be wanting this 1st round pick to hand over to NE for him, just another thing I could possibly see happening instead of drafting a qb.

I wouldnt want to give them a 1st for a man with one year left on his deal. If Drew stays he walks

I thought this was a Cooks "trade talk" thread?

John Hendrix @JohnJHendrix
I'm told that the #Saints asking price for Brandin Cooks this year is a 1st for 2017 and picks for 2018, per source.

Makes sense
More chance getting better additional picks if they are in 2018
Can still trade them to get needs this year if the need is there. It would be nice to go into 2018 with a few extra picks in the bag

Patriots could easily sweeten that deal.

	"Two receivers to the left, Garcon to the right. Manning in the shotgun, puts Collie in motion. Looks in his direction...it's picked off! It's picked off! It's Tracy Porter again! He's runnin' free! He's gonna go all the way!
