Not afraid to say it, I wanted the Saints to draft Matt Leinart.


Same here and I wanted Mike Martz as our head coach. Was so indifferent when we signed some nobody named Sean Payton to lead the club. Ah, hindsight

I was really upset when the Saints moved up in the 3rd last year and didn't take Jordan Willis, I thought he would be a great fit for us as either pass rusher or OLB. Through 1 season I appear to be an idiot.

I was really hoping Vic Beasley dropped to us in the draft, and was really pissed the Falcons got him. I think I preferred Kendricks to Anthony as the top LB, but I didn't hate the pick. Until 2016

Didn't really follow the draft before 2004. I knew about our hyped players like Ricky, Stallworth, Deuce, Onome, etc. but it wasn't until 2004 that I actually watched the whole thing.

2004 - Bob Sanders over Leislie DT UCLA - We had Bellamy and Tebucky...we would wait a full year to try to fix and address safety the next year when we would take Josh Bullocks in the 2nd

2005 - I did not like the Bullocks pick at all and had we drafted differently Corey Webster or Lofa Tatupu were guys I liked that year.

2006 - I was partying and worry free for the draft that year. I chalked it up as a HR after getting Reggie lol. I did want Demarco Ryans but he went a pick before our 2nd and we got Roman.

2007 - Did not like the Meachem pick at the time and would have been happy with almost anyone who came off the board next. Joe Staley, Ben Grubbs, and Olsen went in the next 4 picks.

In Loomis I trust years

2013 - I wanted Jarvis over KV...

2014- anybody but SJB. he wasn't even my favorite CB on the board that year. None of those CBs panned out either though so it isn't as bad outside of passing on Allen Robinson and Jarvis Landry.

2015 - Kendricks over Anthony and anything but Grayson(I melted hard on Grayson)

minus not drafting a Guard in 2016 I thought we had killed the last two drafts. I did melt for 30 minutes offline about not getting a OG. Calmed down after really researching who we drafted.
