No holes to run thru with shite OL, no QB to throw to a great TE. Defense 1st.

I don’t care if this is the smart thing to do it hasn’t worked for the Saints. We have picked offensive or defensive line 8 of the last 10 years in the first round and our lines are still below average. Lattimore and Olave, were the 2 other picks and both were/are extremely productive. We already have two young tackles who should improve and just gave chase young 50 million. Go get actual playmakers on offense and pick one of Warren or McMillan if they are on the board.

Our best teams, and frankly the best teams in the league year in and year out, are strong up front
They shite the bed recently with the lineman but that doesn’t mean you stop trying, especially given the glaring weaknesses

I'm convinced that because of the collective bargaining agreement, some of these prospects not just for the Saints, but for other teams are not really reaching their full potential because they can only do so much in the off-season with coaching supervision.
Practices also used to be a lot more physical and longer.
And it seems like it's been especially harder to develop offensive linemen lately. And again, I wouldn't say that that's just a problem that only the Saints have.
If you can get a solid technician who's strong and has good footwork and violent hands. Great, but those guys just don't grow on trees a lot of times players need to develop and I don't think that's going to change anytime soon with the collective bargaining agreement. The way it's set up I mean.

Build the Oline. We are drafting Manning next year.

Absolutely that's refreshing to hear because that is where you win games on the line.

Of course. A guy we picked up a couple a weeks. ago for a nice low price and that guy who is the backup LG.
That looks pretty good. I change my mind. No hole there.

No. You have your tackles. Go get the two guards out of georgia. Fairchild and Rattledge in the later rounds and go with jeanty at 9. Kamara isn't getting younger.

And then double down with Foskey.

Because Loomis loves his "high ceiling" high RAS grade guys with injury histories. Oh and of course trading up to draft at times too

There are only 2 OL men worthy of taking at 9 and both likely will be gone!
Posted on 4/24/25 at 10:00 am to Fun Bunch
right, so start with a new General Manager?
Posted on 4/24/25 at 11:08 am to Fun Bunch
That is also my draft strategy.
