This guy thinks a 3rd and 4th round pick cost us championships, while others think we should’ve traded up in the 1st round to take Drew Brees’ successor and waste his rookie contract sitting on the bench.
I mean, I wish Payton would've moved up for Mahomes. Lattimore did turn out to be a decent pick but the Saints probably would've won a couple more Super Bowls by now if they drafted Mahomes. All of the talk came out that Payton wanted Mahomes and then Kansas City moved up to #10 to draft ahead of us at #11.

Not sure what payoff the Saints were honestly expecting to get from these choices. They were all wasted at a times when the Saints obviously had other needs. An extra contributor or two could have made the difference and pushed us over the top to the Super Bowl during the 2017-2020 seasons when we were contenders. Oh what could have been.
Was it really because Sean loved those guys because they reminded him of himself? That’s so goofy if true. That’s got to just be a rumor.
This is a dumb question.

Is this how you felt at that time? The majority of fans were happy getting Lattimore since CB was a big position of need and he was projected to go 5th to the Titans by many. Also when that piece came out about how we were gonna take Mahomes if he was there, most of us at the time were pretty relieved KC traded up ahead of us.

You crazy if anybody thought Tom Brady would turn out to be the GOAT, hell Bill a tell you he didn't.
It's hard to find a decent Quarterback, let alone a good 1 in any round.
