It’s been like this for years. They’d rather be miserable

I'm not talking about popular, or fan favorite or long term stats. In the games he played for us no other WR was as dominant. Period.

No, 70% of us could easily see what the pros obviously did not or chose to ignore, and that is the disturbing part.

Not even Top 5 Saints WR
He’s not the best, but he’s definitely top 5. Probably my #2 behind Colston. Horn coming in a close third

It’s a baffling type of fandom.
While perhaps true, there is a reasonable basis for concern. The biggest knock on him in the draft process was injury concerns. Most notably hamstring injuries. Given that, the fact that he's already missing several games before even playing in a single NFL game isn't encouraging.
Hopefully it is just a month or so of games missed. But I understand while a lot of fans may have an "I told you so" attitude at the moment

That's just not true. They're angry because Hamstring problems are almost always chronic, and now he's out 2 months after like 5-10 practices. I know I'd feel ALOT better had we taken Downs then Bernard. Both are virtually guaranteed hits. Taking him when the next Ed Reed was available will turn out to be a huge mistake

You haven’t been on this board for 90 days. 
He’s absolutely right. There are lots of people posting that have been hate watching since 2020 or so. It’s bizarre.

How stupid are you??? This is our first-round draft pick.

He’s had four hamstring injuries since 2025. History of ther injuries. Hurts hamstring during the first exposure to live bullets.
Fans were enjoying a bit of tailwinds here. It’s never fun when your biggest fear with a guy rears its ugly head in early August

Go get a job with an NFL team as a scout or in the front office, since it's so easy

It's absolutely true and has been the case on here for a while. I used to lose my shite all the time with this team, but it was always for play on the field. I never took a stance of "I hope our first rounder is bust so I can come back on here and say I told you so."
quote:

Come on, man. There's absolutely no such thing in the draft as a "guaranteed hit." All it takes is one wrong move or a bad break and Downs is in the same spot as literally any player.

If Downs was the next Reed, he'd have gone #1.

I don't think there's any issue with fans showing reasonable concern. Hell I'm pretty bummed about it and hope his timeline is sooner rather than later. But I'm also not declaring him a bust already or posting with glee that "I was right" during the NFL Draft.

Everyone saw the injuries. Don't act like your special lol
The Saints did not throw a dart to pick him. They put in time and money and EXPERTS to evaluate him.
Yall act like he's dead. I don't know if he will play again or never miss another game a neither does anyone. People sometimes just want to be miserable. It sucks right now no shite but time will tell.

Optimism is a challenge for the man who is a Saints fan.

Nobody said it was easy but how can you dismiss that the guy has a HUGE injury issue and has not played a single complete season since high school? Did they expect that just because he is changing from college to the NFL that anything would be different? You don't have to be a pro scout to see the damn elephant in the room on this dude. And with that huge of an issue, was it worth taking the gamble on him with the 1st round pick? Time will only tell but seeing as how it only took a handful of practices and zero games for this to already happen, its crazy not to be questioning what the Saints were thinking. Especially with our history of making bone-head draft decisions.
Posted on 8/18/26 at 10:36 am to Tygerfan
That's the thing. You're not questioning it as you just said.
You're slamming it as so obviously stupid that 70% here knew it was stupid.
