Re: Saints draft Marcus Davenport after trading up in first round
I'm pretty cool with the aggressive strategy to get Davenport by the Saints. Today's NFL is not a place for conservative approaches. You roll the dice and you live with what you get. I mean, the Browns just actually took the brash Mayfield at #1. There is a chance Davenport has Jevon Kearse type of impact, so there is upside with this risk.

Re: Saints draft Marcus Davenport after trading up in first round
Report on this guy. 6"6, 265lbs+, freak athlete, aggressive, violent player who plays the run and the pass and when he hits you, you drop. I say. OK. At some point in the NFL, physical talent becomes the key and this dude has some. Any real WhoDat is pumped. Lets go! WhoDat!

Re: Saints draft Marcus Davenport after trading up in first round
Something that was being discussed on the radio is how DE are becoming like trying to get a good QB. There are not a lot of truly difference makers out there, so when you can get your hands on one, you gotta pay for it.
Nobody should be double guessing this pick. We have been asking for help on the other end for Cam every yr and we never got one because it never worked out right. The only other way for us to land one would be to have a super crap season, so we could have a early pick. Payton stated he put in a LOT of time on this kid. Good enough for me. |

Re: Saints draft Marcus Davenport after trading up in first round
It's not the player I am disappointed about. Davenport is worth the 14th pick. I just hate the trade to get him. Green Bay traded up from 27th and gained a 7th rd pick and only lost a 3rd and 6th a four spot difference. Why couldn't saints offer 2019 2nd rd instead of a 1st?

Re: Saints draft Marcus Davenport after trading up in first round
People will have issues with whatever you do but this FO group has been very successful at idendifying needs and the right talent to fill those needs. Moving up to get a first round talent locked into a rookie contract with the option year is smart business, our cap number will be better next year and we will have the room to makeup for the lack of a 1st round draft pick by being early in on the free agent market and target our biggest need with a known quality vet. They (FO) have been hitting on all cylinders and we have fewer and fewer hole to fill, no reason to be anything but optimistic ... Championship!!!!
