So maybe the trade wasn't about Jimmy

Appears it was more about Unger
Ian Rapoport

This quote makes me think that we will take LSU Collins with our 13th pick

I feel good that payton valued a hog above a finesse player

I'd absolutely love Collins at 13, a MLB at 31, and a WR at 44.
Goes with what Loomis said that the acquired pick will be to help the defense.

kind of makes it worse knowing we didn't even shop him around for better offers....oh well

Jimmy was playing less of a tight end roll and more of a wide receiver these days and lining out more. I feel that made him less effective. There was no disguising that he could stay on the line or go out. He was out as a wide out and was jammed more. Maybe Saints wanted to get the money out of him....Also, he was the top "target" for DBs every sunday and was double teamed more. But as many have said on this board, the O-line was more of an importance than it was to have a high priced tight end that was really a wide out at this point. Still good production, but was a luxury. Drew is best when he spreads the ball around and Jimmy was becoming too often a target to "lean" on.
