Rankins is a hell of a player, and has been the consensus pick since February for us.

Jacks knee is not gonna hold up
We have two tackles in Armstead and Peat, Tunsil isn't as good as people think he is and isn't worth the distractions.
Shaq would've been my pick but it's not like Rankins is a scrub

You people did the same thing with Peat last year, stop being obtuse

You trade back and you still get him plus more picks...that is why I do not like it....But, they are going to say we had the phone ringing but were not satisfied with what we were offered...etc etc.....

It's been a long, long time since we've had a good interior pass rush. Now we have a rotation of Fairley and Rankins.

People are fricking stupid. We should have selected the LB with the hole in his knee or the OT to play with our other two OT's. Saints address an area of major need with a very good player, and the idiots and trolls melt.

You should read all the pre draft trolltard threads. They are informative

It takes 2 to trade. They used all 10 minutes.

you actually have to have a team willing to trade up to trade down. Can't just push a button....

And how the hell do you know that? Talked to the other 31 GMs? A lot of mocks had Rankins gone before 12.

There's no guarantee he's going to be there if they trade back. He's clearly been who the Fo has targeted. You take him when you have the chance

People always just throw out "trade back" like it's just something you decide to do whenever you want and it doesn't require another team that actually wants to trade up.

Not exactly impressed by Peat. He's okay.

I still prefer BPA.. but it's all good.

Chris Jones, Shaq, and Myles are all better options.
