Any chance Saints Draftboard was leaked?

We know both the Daints wanted both Foster and Riley. Now to hear that Cook was also in play. It may seem coincidental for 1 or 2 guys, but something to have 3 or more guys get picked just before your pick has to raise an eyebrow.
Something to be featured in draftday2 movie lol.

Everybody knows the Saints were hard up for linebackers and were going to draft one.

Yeah if it was obvious to us that the Saints wanted Foster then it was obvious to the 49ers professionals who do this for a living.

Where did you hear that? Random posters on here?
Based on available information, it seems the Vikings moved up to get ahead of the Eagles who themselves tried to trade up at one point to get Cook.

May be purely coincidence, but it does seem teams jumped us for players we were considering.
#11 - Considering Mahomes, Chiefs trade to 10 and select him.
#32 - Considering Foster, 49ers trade to 31 and select him.
#42 - Considering Cook (rumor?), Vikings trade to 41 and select him.
#76 - Considering Riley, Falcons trade down to 75 and select him.

This is all conjecture. We don't know shite. The only one that is kind of confirmed is Foster. Everything else is just posters here making assumptions.

With the Saints draft history, maybe it was a good thing they were forced into their 2nd option sometimes.

As far as conspiracy theories go on these boards, this is probably one of the more feasible of the ones I've seen. I've often wondered with some of the cameras they put in the draft rooms for some of the teams for the "show" (pretty sure I saw Denver and Elway on Thursday night), how hard would it be for someone to bug a room? They could just be listening in on some of the conference phones in the room. It just doesn't seem to me like it would be that difficult.

I don't know if our draft board was leaked, but the Saints certainly didn't hide their team needs and interests. Someone needs to explain the concept of "smokescreens" to Mickey Loomis and Payton. I think Mahomes, Foster, and Riley would all be Saints right now if not for other teams anticipating our picks - and maybe Dalvin Cook too. We are just as likely to be better off with the players we got, however.

No way possible that this didn't just go down like every draft in history where other teams draft players in front of you and sometimes they draft players that you wanted to draft because they possibly liked those players too.

No way that's what happened. Definitely a conspiracy. fricking Goodell. Cocksucker.

Even if it was leaked, I'm still good with our draft picks.

I didn't pay attention to every other teams pick but I doubt we're the only one's this happened to. This happens to teams every draft. I'm pretty sure front offices around the league are somewhat aware of other teams' needs

I doubt the board was leaked, but it always seems like the "experts" have a lot of information on the Saints before they make their selections, every year. I think there are some loose lips in the war room, and I suspect they are at the top.
Contrast that with some other teams... the Steelers and the Patriots are good examples... you never know what's going on with them on draft day.
The Saints need to learn to keep their traps shut.
