Correct! Kenny V stated he was just tired and forgot all about the rule thing and then got popped the following Monday morning...

However, long-term studies of Adderall use for ADHD suggest heart disease, and we've been down that road as well; sucks, but prior-medicals are always problematic...

The next day and Love was missing all over the field; yes, he has the athleticism but apparently not focus, and as we learned with Kenny Vaccaro, you can't take meds for ADD or other failure-to-focus ailments...

Golic and co were speaking about Jordan this morning.

Lack of talent around him in 2019 as compared to 18, accuracy issues etc.

Some scouts even made the comparison with Pat Mahommes (gunslinger mentality) w/Love ... and we know how Sean P felt about Pat coming out of the draft. If Andy didn't select him, he was coming to NO.

Utah St was clearly outmatched vs LSU last year but you saw some NFL throws from JL. IMO Love could be a real possibility for us.

Finding & drafting a franchise QB is so hard to do at the elite level.

The practice has been moved inside and is closed to the public. Heavy rain at practice. My apologies. Great info though ya'll.

AT&T doesn't carry the NFL network anymore(I guess Godhell pissed them off too). Would anyone care to share the highlights?

The conservative approach signing and drafting high-profile receivers are not the norm in New Orleans.

Really? Robert Meachem, Kenny Stills, Brandin Cooks, Michael Thomas

This seems to be the one area where Payton believes that he can develop late round talent. I don't know why.(Edit: Colston) Except that maybe Drew can make them look good. Drew's arm strength is deteriorating and that's why we brought in MT when he started his decline. We need another stud.

In the beginning Payton surrounded Drew with top draft picks at the WR position because Drew wasn't a legend yet. We went away from that in the prime years and it's time to go back to possession receivers....we don't need a speedster because we can't throw it deep consistently anymore.

I like Anthony Gordon. I think he has the right tools to be a pretty good pro quarterback and a fraction of the cost in regards to some of the other guys.

Andrus Peat was defeated a lot last season. He's either on his back, placed on IR or putting his QB in bad spots. Easton was solid as back up, helping Brees have a really good December. The minute Peat returns, he's back to looking awful again.

I try to be as objective as I can on Saints players, however when it comes to Andrus Peat, he's one guy I hope is not on our team in 2020.
