re: The Spencer Rattler pick shows how bad the Jake Haener pick was

I think it more reflects a the change in offensive philosophy for the first time in 18 years. The Saints were constantly chasing the next Drew Brees. Smaller guy with somewhat questionable arm strength who was a better "touch" guy that great thower.

While Rattler is shorter like Brees and the others, he can snap throws off pretty quickly and did it against high level competition. He's more Baker Mayfield than poor man's Drew Brees. That's not to say he will ever start an NFL game. But I think with a new offensive approach for the first time in nearly two decades they Saints are no longer desperate to find a Brees clone.
