I’m not moving up to draft a QB like it solves all my problems. If a top QB fell to the teens, then yes take him. But that’s not happening. So build the team up to give your future QB a chance to succeed.


You’re literally talking in circles and contradicting yourself. You can’t build a team up if you don’t have a qb to build around. Your philosophy is nonsense. QBs are not overrated, thats why they’re so coveted via draft or free agency. You never addressed all those teams you talked about that took qbs with similar or worse records as the saints. Now you’re complaining about this team being old and want to infuse young talent in it but not invest in a QB, unless it falls in your lap lol. You’re ok taking a QB in later rounds but god forbid drafting one early. News flash for you most starting qbs in the league were drafted in the first round. By the way, every QB is different. A more athletic rc QB doesn’t necessarily get killed behind this line, like you think. The lottery ticket solves a lot of problems if it hits, you’re just so scared everything will be david klinger or Bryce young you rather stick with Carr and mediocrity.

We disagree on how to build a team. I’m not talking in circles, you just disagree with my strategy. You can have a team of good players without a QB. Hell, look at Tampa Bay right now. Look at the Jets. Look at Cleveland. Good players who need that QB. The other way is to draft Bryce Young or Justin Fields and have no one around them. Are they a good QB on a bad team, or are they bad QBs on bad teams?

I never said QBs are overrated. I said every QB class is regarded as great with 2-4 QBs regarded as great QBs each year, but usually only one hits in the NFL.

I just don’t want to mortgage our future by moving up for a QB and would rather take the slow and steady approach to roster building.

Unfortunately I doubt the Saints go with either of our strategies. So we will never know.
