The problem with this is that no one knows if DeShaun is a franchise QB, and I guarantee you there will be some kid (maybe even 2 or 3) that looks exactly like DeShaun next year, and the year after, and the year after that. None of those kids will be sure things either,

No one knows if any QB is a franchise QB or sure thing. You can approach any potential draftee with the same skepticism. People thought Alex Smith was better than Aaron Rodgers

Teams that use early 1st on QBs actually need that guy now. Teams looking down the line to feel guys out or groom for future do so in later rounds.

You can laugh all you want. Bottom line is the Saints should not draft him. Period. It's not an immediate need, and does not help the team win now or the year after or the year after. For longer than three seasons the narrative has been a sub par defense. It needs to be addressed now and with the highest picks and best players available on that side of the ball.
