Yes, there's some talent, but WTF is it with Sean Payton's obsession with OSU???

They've had a really good relationship over the years.

Well, one for two - As I said on the other thread, personal references are important, but Payton/Loomis may be giving them to much weight...

First, what else is Meyer going to say? Meyer's got a vested interest in seeing his players drafted as they become plumes in his recruitment process...

Second, not everyone has the same objectivity and optics - the folks here at Black and Gold are an example of that...

Third, Saints decision-makers were hired to make the decisions, not Urban Meyer or whomever council is being sought...

Not one pick Payton/Loomis has made where the costs was two picks are more has worked out for us...

That even includes Brandin Cooks, who we were lucky we were able to flip into a first round pick AND have San Fran save us from Reuben Foster...

Maybe Payton can trade all of our 2019 and 2020 first round pick for Nick Bosa? And he's from Ohio State!!!

Didn't we pick someone in the supplemental draft once before?

QB Dave Wilson (Illini) is the only outright NFL supplemental draft pick we've ever made - first round, 1981

(Note: Saints were required to give up an equivalent pick in the following draft which resulted in the 1982 first round pick, 3rd overall pick...

In the 1984 USFL Supplemental Draft, Saints got LB Vaughan Johnson (Jacksonville Bulls), RB/KR Mel Gray (LA Express), LB Steve Dearden (Memphis Showboats)...

A supplemental draft pick of note was Steve Walsh, but we didn't select him...

That distinction belongs to Dallas' Jimmy Johnson, who drafted his Miami, FL QB with the second overall pick in the 1989 NFL Supplemental Draft...

(Note: Like New Orleans, Dallas had to surrender their equivalent first round pick in the next draft, 1990, which turned out to be the first overall pick of that draft)

Jimmy Johnson favored his college QB, Walsh, over future (overrated) HOFer Troy Aikman...

But instead of trading for Aikman, Saints Jim Mora insisted on Walsh, sending the Saints 1991 first, second, and third round picks...

Steve Walsh was out as the starter by the next season when Bobby Hebert returned after a contract dispute; Walsh played 8 more game before being released in 1994...

Unfortunately that cautionary tale is forgotten, lost on the current regime at to what happens when a head coach has too much stroke and has a weak, yes-man GM...

How dare you, sir. Decades of therapy shot to crap with this Steve Walsh trash. I couldn't even win with him on Tecmo Bowl...that's how sorry he was.

Add another interesting name to the supplemental draft...

Orlando Brown Sr. and Jr. in the NFL haven't had great luck - though being out of shape is on Jr. and he has to own it...

Saints liked him enough to be one of at least five teams to meet with him; possibly, a safety or big nickel prospect?

Cowboys Coach Jimmy Johnson said he and Jones debated until late Monday night whether to trade Walsh. But, Johnson said, Aikman "is the best quarterback in the NFL, as far as I'm concerned, and will be the best for the long haul."

THAT JIMSTER!!!
