It goes both ways. The Saints NEVER had their season tickets sold out until they drafted Reggie Bush #2 overall after Houston stupidly took Mario Williams in 2006 after Hurricane Katrina.

Tom Benson wanted to move the Saints to San Antonio. Paul Tagliabo flew to Baton Rouge and met with Benson at Tiger Stadium.

Saints get Bush, play in the NFC Championship game and win a Super Bowl a few years later...and how long did the NFL milk that Katrina story?


So you think the NFL rigged things by having the Texans pick the better player, to help out the Saints?

Absolutely...and I would say Reggie Bush had the better career and was way more high profile...no one had heard of Mario Williams until he was drafted #1

Ask John Elway...or Peyton Manning.

Are you saying the NFl has never nixed trades?
