We have bigger needs than just taking a chance on a QB. Now if they think he’s a franchise QB, then they should take him. But everyone is saying this QB class is iffy.

I don’t like any of the QBs as first rounders. They don’t help you win now and I don’t think any are winners 3-5 years from now either. Go get a guy who you can start day 1 at a position of need.

Personally I think they should load up on offensive talent this year and give Winston a chance to see what he can do.


We already know what he can do. He played in Tampa and we saw it. He’s not good enough….. move on.

for those that aren't "impressed"

His deep ball is easily his best throw. Willis makes that throw over and over all year.

Look at the scouts faces on the sideline when he celebrates. They don't like it

I don't hate it but I was Olave and then Burks if they are there. That being said, these so called experts are never right with their mock drafts with the Saints.

If we really think he’s a stud, trade back into the first and get him and Olave. Although we might need to take an OT instead of the WR. Depends on what Allen thinks of Young and Hurst.

I am ok with picking up a OT later. I get that Armtead is good but how much will we miss him with him being hurt so much.

If the infamous Mel Kiper is predicting it, you can rest assure that Pickett will not be a New Orleans Saint next season.

He didn't say his ceiling was low. He also said he could be our future, which to me indicates a high ceiling.


That's a good point. Just the way he worded tells me Kiper believes there is at least 1 QB that has a higher ceiling than Pickett, that other guy just may not be ready to jump in Year 1.
