Re: Did Saints reach for Florida State's Rick Leonard? Agent: New Orleans outmaneuvered competition
The whole point in drafting someone is so you pick a player you want and not risk them signing via FA to another team or fighting over a player in FA.
I seen a number of posts and articles about the reach for him but honestly if that is your guy you get him. You don't take a chance on someone else getting him. Just like the Brown snagging Baker at #1. Many say they could have got him with 4 but if he is your guy you take him. You don't take those chances. Its hard to argue what Ireland has done the past couple of years. I really don't hate what they have done this year. Sitting back and getting a player at 27 they may not have felt would have come in and contribute as early as they would like so going after someone they feel could put them in a better position by all means do it. We aren't building a team at this point we are looking for pieces to get us to the next level. |
