Do you people not get how much rushers like him cost?

We made an aggressive bet but if it pays off, you won’t give a frick about that pick

and this management has been wrong before, and right before

And Spitting fire?

Do you think this website should exist?

Why do you even post here if you don’t want people giving opinions on sports?

Maybe they had to give that up to get there. It's not like they gave up 2 high 1st rounders. They up a 27 this year and another pick that should be 27-32 next year.

Well, technically we “used” two first round picks on him, because we gave up next year’s to get him, and used this year’s on him. The people saying we traded two firsts for him are wrong.

You didn’t call out my opinion actually

You inferred people shouldn’t even be giving opinions if they aren’t in actual nfl management

We didn’t give up that much to move up as much as we did. It takes a lot to move up.

Chiefs gave up a future first and current third to move up from 27 to 10 last year. Future first are viewed comparably to current seconds.

no doubt pass rushers are at a premium like corners now but he better be a day 1 starter and impact player for what we gave up.

2 firsts and a 5th for this guy is stupid as hell


They only gave up one first because they get one back. And next year's first is probably late first as well.... hopefully.

Pretty much all we can interpret right now is that apparently the Saints FO highly values this guy and felt like his value was a lot higher than he was falling. Other than that we have no basis to know if they are right or not yet.

If this guy is a difference maker which they apparently think he is then he is worth it. If not then he wasn't. Going to put a little more trust in their evaluation than some keyboard heroes. Could still go either way though. The draft is a crapshoot.

This pick reminds me of trading up for Brandin Cooks and Mark Ingram.

Small window, our rivals in the nfc got better. We made a move that coulf potentially make our D elite

I love the aggression and trust our evaluations

What if he gets 4-6 sacks this year as a reserve but is a starter next season
