Should the Saints start accumulating draft picks

Yes

yes.

blow
it

I say no. Just a fresh new philosophy and eyes on the talent here.

Thomas would be a nice rental

Thomas has looked fine this year but his best days are behind him and he's on a huge contract. He wouldn't bring in more than a late round pick.

Trade deadline is 31 Oct. We'll see what happens in these next games before the deadline. I suspect that my opinion will be that the FO should blow up this team, trade away every bit of talent left on the team to accumulate draft picks.

Start the Re build by hiring a proven, pure, football mind as the new General Manager.

How? The contracts of anyone worth a damn make them virtually untradeable because of the salary cap

Exactly

Yes, but they are not going to.

Loomis has said repeatedly he does not think like that.

Saints already have $332M tied up in next year's cap. So, anyone they trade would need to have a minimal impact on that cap as Mickey has a lot of work in front of him. So, start naming names of players/talent you would like to see traded and what picks you think you'll get and we'll see how much worse that'll make the cap.

Yea, 2 years ago. About the time they traded for Olave thinking they were competitors lol

You know how with Schrödinger's cat, the cat is simultaneously both alive or dead in a box until you open it.

With Loomis and the current coaching staff, the cat is fricking dead in the box. The cat was always dead. There is never any reason to ever open the box.
