I'm in the minority, but I'd take Arnold back on our roster for training camp in a second...

And I'd slap No. 12 on him and make him a WRs/TEs...

Re: Saints Draft Days Official Thread

It's not even so much about the player the Saints got. You just can't give away THAT many picks for ONE guy... In the third round, no less.

The draft is a crapshoot. The more picks you have, the higher your chances of hitting on a few. Like lottery tickets. This strategy is dumb, no matter what Trautman does. But, he BETTER be good.

Let's face it, TE is really a need. Last time we took a RD 3 TE it worked out well. All the picks that we had for tomorrow probably wouldn't have made the team honestly.

Maybe, maybe not. I would really have liked to see another WR. This draft is said to be possibly the deepest ever at the position, and beyond MT and Sanders we have nothing but question marks and disappointments.

Just trying to be optimistic. I wanted another WR as well, but what is left honestly? Maybe this guy steps in right away. His college numbers are impressive. We also tend to do an above average job at finding UDFAs at skill positions.

Re: Saints Draft Days Official Thread

Why are people still crying. With the lack of a proper off season and the roster being as stacked as it is the chances of later picks making this year especially are limited.

Seems some people just want to whinge if no LSU player get Drafted, they don't trade back or trade up.

Look at the draft for the last 3 seasons, these people have a damn good idea what they are doing. And there's still plenty of vets out there to fill any holes

There are a few LSU players, in any given year, who some of us want. It's not because we're LSU fans. It's because LSU consistently puts out NFL stars. If that bothers some people, then maybe they have too much bias on THEIR end.

But nobody is talking about LSU players here. Look at how much they gave up for one player. It's crazy. I don't know where this "stacked roster" argument is coming from. Like every player on the team is a star? You build the future by stocking up on young talent. Rosters turnover, every year. That's what free agency and the salary cap does.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
