I don't expect him to be there when we pick, but I would like to see us take Sonny Styles if he drops to us. I didn't see any mocks that had us taking Styles.

Mickey actually trades back.

Dallas receives: pick 8, 190, 2027 4th

NO receives: pick 20, 92, 2027 1st (Dallas)

At pick 20 NO takes S Dillon Thieneman

I can't see us going OT 3 years in a row. That would be unexpected. My curveball is we move up to number 2 or 3 and take Reese. I don't think it will happen, but would be interesting to see.

I agree lemon seems like a much better yac guy and imo as good at contested catches if not better than Tate (who’s extremely good at that ) and much better than Tyson in that department. Tyson is just insanely good at finding soft spots in the zone or completely clowning his defenders causing himself to get wide arse open a lot which is extremely valuable. ESPN has lemon as the top receiver on the draft tracker and he won the biletnikoff for a reason. I’d be cool with any of top 3 guys but gun to my head I’m taking Makai Lemon.

If Dallas would do this, we should absolutely make this trade. Though I’ve read in several places that no trades tonight will involve a 2027 first because it is considered a ‘superdraft’.

Why take Sadiq in the first when you can take Stowers in the 2nd?

I swear it’s like none of you watch football. Sadiq averaged 40 yds per game in a wide open offense against college secondaries. And most of it came on designed plays, not downfield routes. He’s not shifty, just fast. He’s small and isn’t a plus blocker. Biceps and 40 times don’t make you good at football. He’s going to be average in the NFL.

If the Cardinals really go with Love at 3, there is a chance Reese or Bailey are sitting there at 4 or 5. The Saints will absolutely trade up for one of them.

There are several mocks I’ve seen with stowers in the first and one or two where stowers is fist te taken … not that it matters I don’t see saints taking the .. and to your point you could always go Oscar later if stowers wasn’t there

NYG and TEN would have to trade back instead of draft. TEN would take Reese/ Bailey and NYG aren't passing on an option of (2) Reese/ Bailey/ Styles.

If Arizona isn't trading back then the Titans and Giants aren't either.

I really think that if somebody big on defense falls, we should be on the phone with Dallas seeing what they'll offer. Moving back 4 spots, picking up a 2nd or multiple 3rds, and taking Sadiq would be incredible.

Akeem Mesidor....Simply because he is 25 and drafting a player that old worked out last year


that's it, that's my only logic behind it.

Hadn't thought of Sadiq, but yeah. Our TE play has been abysmal and he would fill a huge need for a playmaker. Especially for a young QB. I honestly can't think of a better dark horse.

Mickey's little speech about "low risk" picks yesterday has me a little worried. If Mauigoa is still here (he won't be), fine, but I really hope they don't drop down to a lower-tier OT with the 8th pick.

Just get best man availabile. Hopefully a playmaker.

Trade up to #6 and draft a 2nd team DL from conference USA. Ooops wrong year and wrong coach. That 2020 pick really was bad.

For all the love we gave to SP, he sure drafted shitty at the end.

The Saints trade with Tennessee to jump to 4 to take Tyson ahead of NYG, Clevland, and Washington
