Aren’t all college players “unproven” though? Heck, the number of “proven” college players that litter practice squads today or are even without an NFL job are legion.

The Saints clearly targeted a very specific person and they made the necessary trades in order to make that player a starter here. I understand the arguments that it was expensive, and I’ll even stipulate that as of right now it is proving to have been an unwise move. That being said, I like the aggressiveness instead of staying put at a static drafting point and accepting what falls to us.
