Yet another first round draft pick who produced 1 season for us and traded for probably a much later round. Glad to see we got any production out of him but one season isn't enough.

Another awesome job by our front office and Loomis!

How do we always seem to miss on 1st round picks. If you pick someone in the 1st round aren't they supposed to work out most of the time?

Maybe Loomis can package the fifth round pick with the third round pick to select Vonn Bell's replacement, on the bench...

Why are we blowing the team up in Week 3, when Loomis should've been doing this in March?

We've really got to get that front office of Lauscha and Loomis replaced; need a real strong GM, Finks type; but with a geriatric owner, realistically, will anything happen?

Did we miss? Look at his first season production. Guess as the information becomes declassified, we'll get all the juice on what was really going on...

Or maybe Loomis, Sean Payton etc don't know what they are doing as it relates to drafting defensive players. If they keep changing the type of defense to run every other year, we will most certainly never find players that "fit".

Good luck to Stephone in Miami. A change of scenery could do him some good.

Tell that to Cleveland. Or to the Redskins.

Re: Saints Trade LB Stephone Anthony to Dolphins

If Anthony was not able to break into the LB rotation he was simply a waste of a roster spot. Getting anything for him is better than nothing. We have Armstead and Strief on the active roster and need room in the meantime. The move makes perfect sense. Te'o has made Anthony totally expendable.

I'll beg to differ with your first and last statement.

Re: Saints Trade LB Stephone Anthony to Dolphins

So, can we interpret this trade as an endorsement of the Anzalone pick and the Klein signing?

While we're trading first round picks, I'd like to know what we could get for Vaccaro? Peat? Rankins?

Realistically, we should move Hau'oli Kikaha next for a more natural DE. Ravens Bronson Kaufusi?

Maybe we can throw in the draft pick and Hau'oli Kikaha for Rams DE Aaron Donald, who's know odd man out in Wade Phillips 3-4 front?
