or the fact that Porter is a pretty damn good return man?



SFP are you saying you would have picked King ahead of Porter? Just for the record

so a difference of 13 career INTs doesnt widen that gap any?

the same difference in the fact that hardy was thrown on more playing on a worse pass D

Shut up moron


I am a moron why because I said we could trade back. Well look at the run on cornerbacks after I said that. Oh thats right none to this point 18 picks later. I think you are the moron sir we could have traded back maybe not getting a 3rd but certainly a 4th with all the wide receivers still left when we picked.

But you live in a fantasy world. You don't understand the draft business at all. It's been said on here several times you have to have someone looking to move up to trade with. frick, you're dumb.

i think king in the late 2nd or 3rd would have been a better value than porter in the early 2nd

i'm sure we could have traded back for something. it might not have been "chart value," but i'm sure some team would have traded up

There are teams always wanting to move up and you are the dumb frick because this is all specualtion and fantasy because if we had any real say in the pick we would not be posting here and now. And I don't see how moving down as many teams have done today is fantasy.

There seems to be such a wide range of opinions concerning Porter, I have mixed feelings about this one. Time will tell.

Look dude, just because someone possibly could have taken him later doesn't mean that the Saints automatically could have traded down to be that team. The only way it would have been possible to trade is if some team really coveted a player at 40 and was willing to do it. I seriously doubt that was the case.

I think we could have moved back there were good wide receivers. Dallas may have had their eye on Davis since they took Bennett.

I asked who do u think is going to be a better pro, not what would have been a better value

and how can be be sure someone would have traded back?

takes 2 teams to tango..easier said then done


you're putting a lot of effort in trying to convince otherwise.

king was abused by hardy and devin thomas.

there was a reason porter was all big ten this year and king wasnt.

porter also started for 4 years.
