re: If Brock Bowers or Rome Odunze are still on the board at 14, do you take one of them?

You are too focused on need and short term goals for next year.
You do realize our gm is Mickey Loomis and our head coach is DA? They literally operate from salary cap to free agency purposes year to year. If we really wanted to talk whats best for this franchise long term forget Odunze or Bowers they should go after a QB.
Also fundamentally it doesn’t matter what kind of weapons you have when your oline is falling apart. There are certain years I would agree to get the best guy available. This year they don’t have that luxury. Lets be honest- look at the free agents at OT out there- it’s basically training camp bodies. I just don’t buy your theory in one of the most important positions on a football team- the blindside LT- we should just go with a “serviceable” guy. I mean they never did this with Brees yet you think they should do this with Carr?
All im saying is the oline is so bad this year that the Saints dont have luxury of drafting BPA. Especially since they’ve done nothing free agency wise to really help this oline.

Neither of our opinions will have any effect on what Loomis does. If there is a qb available that they like then they should take him. I doubt that is the case. There is still serviceable OTs available in free agency to get you by and you could take one in the 2nd. There is options. It was a different story with Brees bc you knew he could take you to a championship. You had to protect him at all cost. I don’t feel the same with Carr. Let’s just get the best players and let the cards fall where they may. Players getting open and getting the ball out quicker will definitely improve your protection too.

Lol. Guess you forgot the years we trotted out Charles freaking brown and an unknown mid rounder in Jermon Bushrod in his 2nd year.
