People keep saying that….but at the time no one knew how Rattler would develop.

sooo sick of hearing this. a new head coach came in and had a guy here who was basically a 5th round rookie he did not draft


Well, if what has been said was true and he wanted Dart. He still ended up with a QB he didn't want

Using this logic, Kellen Moore only really wanted the player rated #1 on his board. He didn't want anyone else and therefore didn't want any of draft picks.

Some of you are incredibly obtuse.

There’s really no such thing as sure-fire in the NFL.

I liked our draft class except the 2nd and third rounds. Both were major reaches.

It was literally where Shough was projected to go by almost everyone

That is not true. I do not like that pick; therefore, I have it on good authority that we could have gotten him 2-3 rounds later.

Of course, we would have similar threads if the team decided to outbid the NYG and jump to 25 for Dart

After years of Payton cutting 4th and 5th rounders before the regular season and DA letting high draft picks languish on the bench, it is nice to see the new staff working them into the rotation.

Interesting.

Gyno, where do I find that data? I'm an old man in a younger guys body.

I didn’t see any with him going that high.

Certainly not me. And I don’t care, these same personnel people had Anthony Richardson as a top 5 talent. Mel kiper had Sanders as his number two player in the draft. I thought he’s shouldnt go before the 4th round.

It’s where I had him ranked. And not many other teams besides us needed a qb. I wouldn’t lose sleep if we missed out on him and got Mason Taylor or a handful of ther players I liked better.

That’s my opinion. I’ll take the heat if I’m wrong, or I’ll remind everyone when it turns into a Brian branch or Achane situation again….

Pro football reference

You can see cumulative snap totals on the Saints page, and individual game snaps via a player’s page

Until we see shough, I have a hard time judging the pick. Maybe we're taking the GB approach to getting a qb ready. Maybe he sucks. We really don't know until we see him.

Isn’t he 26? He isn’t a young guy. I’m not optimistic.

I worry Stutsman doesn’t have enough speed but everything else about him screams linebacker.
