Is this phase three of the melt? I feel like we’ve entered stage three

Another Baldy take
“(A league evaluator) told me, ‘Watch this kid Payton Turner from Houston. Six-five and change, 270 (pounds), three-year player, 84-inch wingspan, 36-inch arms — you can see his length show up on tape, too.
“And you watch this guy and say, ‘Geez, could this be Leon Lett?’ I mean, I played against Leon, and you couldn’t get your hands on him; he was just too long.”
I’m sorry but LSUFan69XXX told me we could have gotten this guy in the 3rd

Sounds good until you realize the league evaluator was a Saints employee.

We could have had him early in the 2nd round at worst! This would have provided an additional draft pick (s) for this year or next and lowered the contract price.
According to who? Three edge defenders went after this pick.

Is it known that they didn't even try to move back? Is it possible that they tried to move back but couldn't get a deal done? I know it's not likely for the Saints to move back in a draft but all this talk has me wondering if they tried.

Yeah it's a lot easier to come up with a scenario whereby you could have gotten the player you wanted for less draft capital AFTER you know exactly how the draft played out... quite another thing to do it in the midst of the draft when you don't know what's about to happen and everything is moving at a million miles an hour.
