MY feelings so far
A lot of turmoil about the Saints trading B. Cooks. Moving a malcontent WR for a 32nd pick and moving up 15 spots in the fourth rd. is a significant positive in my opinion. The Saints were handicapped by Cooks public display of his discontent.
This is a deep defensive draft and we have an opportunity to improve our talent level with these picks. Signing L. Warford was a excellent move . A young ascending player at position of considerable need. Immediate upgrade . Resigning Fairley at reasonable rate . I see no reason that he will not be able to build on his very good past season give us a quality rotation at the position. Fairley strikes me as a guy who has matured and is happy being in New Orleans near family and being a part of a quality lockeroom. A J Klein is starting quality player at a position desperate need that I feel will be a considerable asset in our weakest position group. Ted Ginn is a deep threat and superior KR to any player currently on our roster. I have a sneaky suspicion that we may end up trading for CB M. Butler with the Patriots. Go ahead and flame away These are my feelings nothing more, nothing less. |

Re: MY feelings so far
Feelings!? We don't deal in Feelings here!!! It's all "What if" "He's the guy I wanted" "Kicking the tires, checking what's in the tank on the cheap for the hometown discount because he's a beast". When trades or F/A signings work out saying "I told you so!" and if they don't work out saying "I told you so!" and the proverbial feeling good because "We may have lost the game......."

Re: MY feelings so far
I think this trade has ratcheted up the pressure. We for sure now will need to be a lot better on the defensive side to justify sacrificing Cooks. Saints need to be very active in upgrading the defense, because if they waste this opportunity and the defense is still buns next season I and many others will be calling for Payton and Loomis' heads like never before.
