re: Who was the last LSU player to make an impact?

You may want to reread my post again. I said most of the impact LSU players were already gone before we even had a pick. Harper was drafted in same 2nd round as Whitworth. Odell went before we had a pick and we had just drafted Cooks so why would we draft Landry. Stephon Anthony was a better player coming out than all 3 of the LSU LBs so idk what you think would be any different with them. And you cannot point out one on the last four years because 3 of them didn't have any. If you go back further the Giants had an old Corey Webster and that's it, Packers I can't remember, and then next is the Saints with an Devery. I'm just saying this if we had drafted all these LSU guys that we actually had an opportunity to draft we really wouldn't be any better like some people believe. Like someone said in one of the threads yesterday that we'd have a better team if we had only drafted LSU players the last 3 years. That is so stupid I don't even know where to start. Just an example of what people actually wanted is everyone wanted to draft one of the LSU RBs because they hate Ingram for no reason but Ingram had shown to be a superior player to all of them.

People need to separate their LSU and Saints fandoms. Like I would love to see the Saints get Tre White in the second or Duke in a later round but it has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that they went to LSU. People on here want the Saints to get LSU players just cause LSU and that's what gets annoying and stupid.

I see that you changed some wording in a few of those sentences. Either way, anyone making those statements on here just want good players. They see guys that were considered decent to good from LSU striving in other places. Payton rarely takes guys that have played college football in the South East region altogether. Usually when he does, it's a bad scouting job like John Jenkins or Stephone Anthony (I think he does better with a good Lb coach).

Now look at that statement without bias and think about which guys they may have been referring to in the last 3 years of the draft. They just want to see some local talent that have actually played well in the NFL for other teams and mainly division rivals at that.

I take those comments and say "yeah Kwon or Deion would've been nice." I also say the two Jalen's are playing beyond what I thought the would do in their short careers. Bennie Logan and Tre Turner are monsters out there to. Yes we could've drafted all of them, but felt the need to make picks elsewhere. I'll cheer for them all unless playing the Saints.

Besides all of that, honestly the organization just needs to find some definite talent. No more project picks in the draft. Its great to find that diamond in the rough, but they have been lucky in that department for awhile.

Landry would have been nice. But colston and Graham were still here playing significant snaps. It wasn't a dire need, long term Yeah but the moment was a cornerback after we lost Greer for his career. Issue was poor gambling on that draft. He makes us better, yes. But we had more needs and wide receiver was just drafted.

Hill was another one people cry about, but Ingram is better.

Turner would have been the best pick. It fit a need and looked at the future. Issue is we didn't have that pick anymore. Once again, sjb was taken.

Hunter was never going to be that good here. He went to the perfect place as well.

Collins was crucified all season by Atlanta fans. He gave up huge plays all season.

Lael Collins was never coming, let's keep that short.

Alexander and debo had question marks in coverage and Alexander was paired with a top 3 olb to help him out they were dynamic together while debo went with an elite defensive coach. They would be like Anthony here with vitt

Once again you purposely omitt, facts to prove a non factual point. Payton has been here since 2006 and there has been 3 to 4 drafts he and his guys didn't take anyone from this region. I'm not saying he has to either...

Since 2006 Payton has taken 13 guys from the southeast

Missouri and Louisville (many in Kentucky that I've met fell as if they are neutral to both) are as north of the southeast REGION as you can get. Since you're laughing you had better not counted Hicks, The University of Regina???...by that logic Onyemata played in the southeast region as well smh. Also everyone of those picks besides, Ingram, Armstead, Anthony (still hoping, but.?.?.?) and Graham were the result of horrible scouting.

So yes, Rankins is a northern boy, as is Patrick, as is Murphy, your whopping 38% turns into 19.7% or 20% to make you feel better.

Get your story straight. You already said it was in the southeast....

So it's in the southeast region... Thanks

SMH....I said that in the first place.

Yep, exact same thing. Hicks had zero connections to Louisiana and no way I was referencing his short time at LSU as a joke...derp

Yes, I guess that one went by me, but "derp" does fit you quite well.

We so rarely draft southeastern players, yet picked 5 of them in the 2015 draft.

One recent (horrible) draft makes up for everything....

first, 20% still wouldn't be rare. Second, you already admitted they were in the southeast region.

---

It's obvious Payton had a preference in previous drafts, but you're going to author against the point just to troll it out...we all get it.

Now go back to sleep....

quote: One recent (horrible) draft makes up for everything.... See this is the part where you try to put words in my mouth after your incredibly idiotic statement gets shredded to pieces. I never stated the Saints drafted well. I stated that it isn't a rare occurrence for the Saints to draft players from the southeastern region and backed it up.

---

What in the world are you talking about? I said the draft was horrible lol. You're either stuck on trolling or you have a compulsion for finding an argument.

One draft out of 10 makes a great case, right? Then you take a statement I made about the 2015draft and said I put words in your mouth?LOL!!! The only thing you're shredding is you own ability to come across as using common sense. You're not that good at spinning things as you believe lol I'm sure many have seen right through your charades on here.

Either way there is something sincerely wrong with you Well, since Payton's Saints draft history starts at your 2010 mark, how did things look before then?.....I'll wait........I'll count your childish insults as well.

Yea. Tell that to the Falcons. Oh wait...

On that note, do you know how many Georgia Bulldogs played for the NFC champion falcons this year? Not the first damn one. Ask falcons/Georgia fans if they give a shite

Does UGA have the most former players in the NFL?

This.
It's even more asinine that the players often fit positions of need but the IN STATE talent somehow gets overlooked.
That's what's frustrating.

Then, it gets even more frustrating when you look at the busts drafted instead.
