Worst part about Trautman trade

When Dart McDartyface makes their roster next year, and makes an impact, let me know.

Trautman was in our top 40 players of the entire draft.

We picked him at 105.....

This year in particular.

Someone mentioned it in the first round, when the Saints took Cesar. There isn't going to be minicamps or a bunch of offseason this year, you want smart guys capable of learning on their own, and able to come in and play. A scenario like that, you're not going to see a lot of lower rd or undrafted guys come in and make the team. You basically roll with what you got.

The worst part is its a gamble. If you miss on 2 of these 3, the draft was a failure, but if you hit on 2, its a success

I think that’s the thing people miss, this is a back to back 13 win team. Whether they drafted 3 or 10 only a couple were gonna actually make the team.

I’m happy with it, I would have liked a DB and WR for depth purposes but those can be found in FA if needed. And they only gave a 3rd next year which they’ll probably recoup in a comp pick for losing Teddy

Agreed, I think what is shows is the Saints are very happy with their roster and did not see players left out there that could beat out the players we already have.
