We had Brees. Ingram only reached 1,000 yds when he was given the ball 200+ times.

Look, Love the veteran contract and return we got from Ingram; it took him five years, but he finally came through...

But to invest a first and second round pick and never get a 1000 RuYd/Season out of him? That pick was a bust...

Sean just reaches on players too much in the draft...

I’m glad we were able to secure a backup (Bortles) for Ian.

No way was I ready to see AK back there in the read option formation.

Ruiz is in year 2, however, he's starting to look like a reach in the 1st round. He's losing a lot of one on one battles ... all season long.

Wouldn't surprise me to see the Saints go for another O lineman in the 2022 draft. IMO we need better backups as well.

Our line, when healthy, still appears to me to be overrated. I'd love to see us go WR or OLine in round one. I don't know jack really about the draft but I'd be happy with either of those.

Don't forget the 2024 7th round pick!

You just labeled the Saints all-time leading rusher a bust.
