3 year starter. Has played over 2000 snaps and has only allowed 3 total sacks. Thats pretty good.

I know QB is a need but who is going pro that's NFL ready? There are no Burrows or TLs or even Caleb WIlliams type players. Let Spencer have another year of dev, we're stuck with Carr for another year anyway. If we suck again, draft a QB next year high.

Edited to remove the super triggering Louisiana ties. Also Tanking was sarcastic. NFL teams don't tank.

I’ve always said you need to draft players that love this state

Tackle is probably the last position we need to draft.

Lost in everything this season is that Fuaga and Penning have actually played pretty well. We might be set there.

This team is in bad shape at most other positions

Dare I say the offensive line when healthy is probably average. We have very limited depth there.

If we get a top 5 pick this year I sort of wish we would trade back and get an extra second rounder and something later. We need as much cheap pieces as we can. Need a LB, safety, RB, and probably DE.

Same, we are in such bad shape and will likely need to continue the painful process of cap getting right, so they need as many rookies as they can get.

But as long as Loomis is the head honcho, we won't do that.

I still think Penning is a guard.

That's your only takeaway? Who cares if he's the best OL in the draft, right?

If we tank I will be extremely mad if we select an offensive tackle.

You don’t tank for linemen. You tank for a franchise QB.

Penning is not a Tackle.

I think we are tanking. Starting the 3rd string qb when the 2nd was healthy was kind of the sign imo.

If the Saints have a top 2 pick and don’t trade it for a haul of picks, I will be disappointed.
They need a large infusion of young talent more than one good player.

Penning has been serviceable and there is reason to think given a little more experience he will get even better at RT.

You’ve got an aging roster with holes all over it and you want to invest another first round pick in a tackle? That’s retarded.

Yea man, let’s let some bum on the internet who’s too lazy to type out ‘development’ make personnel decisions for an nfl franchise



Spencer Rattler’s bum arse can go develop in Europe or Canada, I don’t want to see that loser anywheres around New Orleans. Overrated POS

First off they won't have to tank for anything, they're gonna lose anyway. Secondly, they don't need tackles. OTs seem to be fine. They need OGs and can get them later in the draft. They do however need pass rush, from DE and DT. and safeties. So DL needs to be the route early on and then not let the good ones walk.

What if you’re not tanking and just suck?

Money you must not have a clue about how to win football games.The
trenches are the most important positions on the field.If you don`t know that
obviously you don`t know the game.
If the Saints have a top 5 pick this draft next year they need to pick the best
OL OR DL on the board.Or maybe they should trade down and get extra picks. There won`t be a franchise QB this draft ,a can`t miss guy,so you can`t go there.
The main problem is the fact that Mickey is still in charge and we all how
well we have drafted the last few years.Thats the reason why the Saints are
in the shape they are in,Mickies management has been putrid.
