Um. Mario Williams, not Watt. Watt was drafted 11th in 2011 5 years after Williams and Bush.

Re: Question for the Forum
I'm pretty sure yes. I think the Saints expected Texas to take Bush and we were prepared to select Williams w the 2nd pick.

SI
Loomis and Payton figured they were in line for N.C. State defensive end Mario Williams or Virginia offensive tackle D’Brickashaw Ferguson. Then the Saints’ brain trust found out over dinner Friday night that the Texans had agreed to a deal with Williams. |

Re: Question for the Forum
Im still sweatin that corner we took in the 2nd rd instead of Jarvis Landry. He aint in the league. Landry and Thomas would be a sensational duo.

Re: Question for the Forum
Payton needed another offensive toy.
Say what you will, it would have been difficult to make up for Reggie's open field production. Just like it has been difficult to make up for Cooks production. Not having drafted Reggie would have reshaped the space-time continuum. We would have been a whole different Black&Gold with an endless array of combinations and outcomes. |
