You are saying to stock draft picks. For what? We draft players who don't ever see the field either by injury or they are evaluated improperly. Doesn't matter how many picks you get if you are drafting shite players.

Agree but you’ll at best get a 3rd with incentives to bump to a 2. He’s close to the end of the road if he gets concussed again.

Maybe we can use those picks to draft a DE from Notre Dame that never plays.

In the top 40 or so picks.

You aren’t getting good value for these guys. AK is running back old.

And you don’t want to keep Olave, but you think someone is going to give you draft picks for him?

NFL doesn’t work like Madden.

I don’t think you’re comprehending that not wanting to dump a ton of money into a wr with the talent level that this team has is not smart. Has nothing to do with the value or talent of Olave and yes someone would give up a decent chunk for Olave. The guy has had 1200 yard receiving years with the likes of Dalton and Winston throwing him the ball.

Olave is worth a 3rd all day long maybe a 2. AK is a 3rd. I will take those 2 picks and move on from these guys.

Devante Adams just got traded for a conditional 3rd. Olave isn’t a #1 WR and he might get you a 4th.

AK might get you a 3rd to a desperate team. Thing is, I don’t see a team looking to make a run that is desperate for a RB like San Fran was last year.

The downvotes are bothersome. We aren’t winning anything with this roster and we’ll only be digging a deeper hole by prolonging it

Was going to come refute this statement on Saints’ lack of draft success but just checked the record and it’s not great since that 2017 class hahaha. Gotta keep trying!

You're insane to think Olave wouldn't garner at least a bottom half 1st.

22 players had 1k+ in 2022
28 players had 1k+ in 2023

JJ, Hill, Adams, Brown, Diggs, Lamb, Waddle, Smith, McLaurin, St. Brown, Cooper, Evans, Metcalf, Chase, Godwin, and Aiyuk all did it.

Wilson and Olave are the ONLY two guys to do it in their first 2 years.

They're both off to a better start to their career than other guys like Diggs, Brown, Smith, St. Brown, etc. They'll cost a 1st to acquire because they're still cost controlled for 2.5 more years

You not getting a third for AK lol.,Maybe a 5th .

And I wouldn’t take a third for Olave figuring what we gave up for him. It would have to be a first. And I’m not sure any team gives that up for him right now.

We should trade Chase Young or Granderson to Detroit. They lost Hutchinson and have Devenport on IR. They should be desperate for a DE.

Why do you people want to give Mickey more picks to screw up.Someone
posted the Saints need to draft OL@DL ,they have and look at the results.
Loomis`s can`t judge football talent or the scouting sucks and it might be both.As long as ML is GM the Saints will suck.

Adams is 32 and may have a year if any left in his prime. Olave is 24 years old. I swear i don’t know where some of you come from. The issue is be concerned about with Olave? Concussions. If he’s healthy I’d give up a first rounder for him in a minute. The dude has unreal talent.
