Lol...."Fake news"

Re: Seven thoughts on the Saints' draft class

I'd like to to respond first to the article and the Saints Press Group as a whole...

Nick Underhill and Joel Erickson have always been very gracious in taking time to respond to tweets for requests for information or clarifications...

And they often have some of the more insightful commentary on the team, but this article is a joke of a defense of this year's draft...

Jeff Duncan is probably the only firebrand in the Saints press group and even he's chilled in recent seasons...

But I find most of these reporters complicit with the BS that the team spits out through what has always been a joke in DeShazier, now a paid team hack...

Don't know if it was all the recent praise to Ireland that the Saints were finally drafting well that ruffled feathers, but this was a Sean Payton/Mickey Loomis draft...

And if Ireland wants to maintain loyalty among his attributes, we'll never know the exact truth because of a group of reporters to afraid to lose access to the team...

Re: Seven thoughts on the Saints' draft class

They could've used one of those 5th rounders for the nine fingered TE wonder out of Wisconsin. But the UDFA TE out of Western Kentucky may make up for this.

Re: Seven thoughts on the Saints' draft class

This is truly a wait and see draft class. There is a ton of potential........for boom or bust out of this years draft picks. We have cleaned house in the coaching staff and have some young talented technicians teaching our rookies the intricacies of the game. Each one of our draft picks has a chance to make the team.

The Saints F.O. Propaganda Wing.

It's OK to question this draft regardless of the success of the 16 & 17 draft. Some find it HERESY to question this draft or anything else the F.O. does.

Some of us watch A LOT of college football & already know most of these players very well BEFORE the Combine & Pro Days. We know what we see between the white lines on Saturdays and not just from YouTube highlights.

No we're not the scouts, coaches, or the GM, but we're also not casual college football or Saints football fans either.
