This whole board has been begging for a compliment to Jordan and an edge rusher for years. We get one and yall are melting like we traded up for a backup kicker.

We are building and improving on a young and badass defense that should be awesome to watch for years to come.

Here's to next season.

Who Dat.

It was a risk that didn’t need to be taken. If you want to jump, jump for a QB (not saying they should have taken Jackson)

Idiots we got the best pure Pass rusher in the draft stop crying. He's the second best edge after him there's key with big issues then a huge drop

F@ck yea.
3 down DE. Plays run and squeezes the line. Pass rushing is going to make Cam happy.

Why? QBs are best found in free agency. Wait, I forgot. We drafted Brees.

That's our fanbase in a nutshell.

Why trade for the biggest need on the team and a major compliment to our all star defensive leader?

Why improve on our young defense and use our draft picks to get the best player available?

We should've traded up for an unnecessary rookie QB who would sit behind Drew Brees for a few years. You know Drew Brees? He's the current Saints QB. Everyone has been saying "this is his last year for sure" for 5 years now. Definitely should've traded up for a QB. I mean how much longer will our first ballot HOF, world beating, record setting, Superbowl Champion, team leading, sports science redefining QB play? Why waste picks building a team around him when we could just stockpile rookie QBs on the bench indefinitely until he retires?

What could we possibly have gotten that was better with these picks?

If you think drew has 2 years left to win a superbowl (which I do), then next yrs 1st isnt really as valuable to us. What are we gonna draft next year that is going to put us over the top for the last year of Drew's superbowl contention.

Dont even start with "after drew", there a not going to be an after drew, ask the like 20-25 teams in the NFL that have never in their history had a qb as good as drew.

I'm glad they aren't sacrificing chances at this window to ensure that we can maybe still be an average team after drew.

Maybe it was too much if you dont take into account all these added situational facts, but this was literally the biggest hole on the team, and they did what they could in the last year they could have done something and had it pan out during Drew's last window.

post-Brees, will it be good enough to lead us to a title?

that's basically your argument. we have a better chance of winning titles in 4-5 years with this pick (and no 1st next year) than we do in Brees's closing window

Now add that we will be drafting late next year AND the QB class next year is weak.

IMO Saints knew this and made a well calculated decision once they lost out on this years QBs. Next years first won't get us a QB.
