History says the aversion is to winning more so than LSU players. Today was just a confounding variable.

Leonard is still a bust. Ironically the saints missed Kwons lsu arse so much

Those clowns forget how big of a role Devery Henderson played on their super bowl team.

Both top 5 picks when NOLA didn't have high draft picks. What bit the Saints the most is Payton's love for Mahomes leaking and Andy Reid and KC trading in front of them to pick him up.

I’m sure the Saints would have loved to take Devin White at fricking 5 in the 2019 draft. Jesus.

To be fair: we didn’t have a chance to draft either.

And that would have been a dumb move for either player, especially Fournette.

The Saints have a nasty history of being embarrassed in the playoffs to teams they should beat. It’s been going on since forever, but people forgot because they won a Super Bowl that one time.

Mentioning Fournette in the same breath as Devin White is an insult

Plenty of LSU players doing well in these playoffs.

Yeah, It’s a shame we’ve been so successful that we didn’t have a chance to draft a top 5 LB

Could have taken other LSU players and probably would have won

The saints had no opportunity to obtain either player.
