We don't have many needs. This draft is going to be very exciting.


I know I know I'm an LSU homer blah blah but I swear if we get Beckham and Hill in this draft I will be ecstatic.

I'll be happy with a legit number 2 WR, running back depth and O-line depth in this draft.

I think Payton's year off did wonders for this team in the long run. While he may have been rusty in the offensive play calling last year, I think he got over the blind loyalty aspect he may have previously had. He's ready to cut people a year earlier for the long term good and this team will be much better off because of it.


I wouldn't say that at all. I think it was the fact that he was loyal to Harper, Vilma, and Smith last year(and they were loyal to us taking actual pay cuts) and they played a combined 10 games(not even a full 10) yet cost the team major cap room we could have used elsewhere last year and this year.

I think he sees that cap space outweighs leadership and loyalty now if you want to keep winning.
