Should get something for Bell too right?

I wasn’t convinced Taysom Hill was really Drew’s successor but now we’ve drafted a mobile QB with more of Taysom’s style.

So I’m assuming this guy is going to take over the role of hill when he becomes the starter?

Exactly. I think that pics showed a sign of commitment.

It’s looking like the Emmanuel Sanders signing cancels out the 6th rounder we would’ve gotten for Bell.

So he will take on the Swiss Army Knife role?

Sure, if the Saints want to be trendy, for no actual reason. There is no statistical analysis stating that a running QB leads to more wins. Last time I checked, QB's who are proficient at just passing the ball, still win games.

Every now and then, you get a couple of good years out of a "dual threat" guy, but then they start getting beat up. Which makes it financially irresponsible to run that style of offense, consistently. So, yeah, maybe they will change to that. Or maybe they won't. I'm getting a little tired of being told to "get ready" for it. as if it is somehow necessary that this happens.

I’m reading the tea leaves. Payton is a trendy kind of guy. When the 3-4 was big he wanted that. When the Seahawks Cover 3/Cover 1 system became the thing he wanted that. The mobile QB and RPO’s are the thing and now he wants that. I’m excited to see what the offense will look like with Hill or any other mobile QB they so choose. Shaking up the playbook has been long overdue.
