If we draft Fournette, where does that leave Ingram?

We won't draft Fournette. So it's a moot point.

Um no, this is cra cra. What we will do is trade up and getting LF. From there we will become a run heavy team and put Brees on cruise control much like Trent Dilfer, just sit back and manage easy throws. Defense will improve enough to stop lethargic offenses that hardly see the field.

Re: Saints Pick Christian McCaffrey RB at #11

He's more comparable to Darren Sproles than Reggie Bush. Sproles was more productive, but Bush was more important. Bush could run routes better than most receivers and he was tall for his position. He was a threat even with a corner back on him. You can't say the same for McCaffrey or Sproles. Bush also commanded far more attention from the defense because his speed was in a different world from the other two players. If we need a Reggie Bush...then just sign Reggie Bush. Go defense.

Reggie would have had a better career as a CB IMO. Size, speed, does not like getting hit...believe he played DB once in a college game due to depth chart injuries. I firmly remember it but not the actual game. He still had a solid career but I think he could have been in the HOF as a DB. He had the speed and agility to cover anyone.

I don't know he has those kinds of hips. Flipping your hips and breaking in and out of backpedals is something you want to be working on way before you get to the NFL.

Reggie is done. I wouldn't mind adding McCaffrey.........just not at 11 and don't want to trade up for him.
