Re: Emmanuel Sanders
I think The Dude meant to make a trade for him as the Niners (in exchange for a 3rd/4th rd picks 2020) did last year pre trade deadline.
IIRC the Saints did reach out to the Sanders camp for a possible trade last season. Nonetheless, we got our man for 2020. |

Re: Emmanuel Sanders
The rumor is that the Broncos were asking for more from the Saints than what they settled for with the 49ers.

Re: Emmanuel Sanders
That's what happens when you start overpaying in trades in the draft - after Green Bay fleeced us for Davenport (can't blame them), Payton is now the fat pig everyone wants to bleed...

You have to admit that we've been stocking the shelves pretty well recently. 13-3 is a familiar number lately. The Saints have been strong in the trenches according to analysts(anal cysts) and that's where we've spent our capitol on high draft picks. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Personally, I love watching that big man hassle the opposing team all day. He had a good injury history when we traded up for him. I value your opinion jp but I would use the same approach if I were coaching the Saints. Thank God I'm not! Then again the Patriots have been really successful making trades back..... |

Re: Emmanuel Sanders
Cost S.F. two valuable draft choices. They gambled and lost. Jimmy G had him on that post pattern and whiffed!
