It feels like this season was always about clearing salary cap space and putting the team in position to make a run at acquiring a quarterback next offseason. I never imagined Sean Payton was truly excited about the possibility of starting Jameis Winston and/or Taysom Hill. Pickett is a smart player who Payton could trust. Plus, traditionalists would not have to worry about Pickett's sub nine-inch hands consistently playing in inclement weather.

Never heard of this dude tbh. This seems like a weird year to need a QB in the draft.

Corral, Howell, Hartmann are all interesting prospects but they don’t have the typical pedigree as top of the draft qbs. I wonder if our scouting department will like anyone more than the guy we just drafted, Ian Book.

If we can’t get Rodgers or Wilson and don’t want to retain Jameis, I wonder if we will look towards the next tier of QB’s like Teddy, Garropolo, Fitzpatrick, Dalton, Goff, etc.

These same people will hate on drafting Pickett like they did with Mac Jones. Saints fans are a special kind of retard

Pickett has been one of the top 5 favorites to win the Heisman for the majority of the season lol

TBH, I watch State and LSU. That’s about it. My overall interest has waned bc State lost a bunch of close games and LSU was a tire fire. Overall college football has lost its luster for me. The same 4-5 teams are actually good every year and that’s that.

On Sundays, I watch the Saints, Bengals (Burrow and Co), and sometimes the Cowboys (Dak- I’m a State Alum)

So, in short, Yes but No. I probably would not have heard of this guy until I started studying draft prospects.

This kid has incredible accuracy and takes care of the ball. The only knock on him is he has small hands. I would love this pick and have him sit for a year or two behind whoever we have starting.
