Shough >>>> Rattler. Rattler is the very definition of a 5th round QB. Poor play, bad measurables. The dude went 0-6. You owe him nothing.

What makes anyone think Shough is a better prospect than Rattler, besides where he was drafted(in a much weaker QB class).

Rattler played in a better conference, against better competition and put up better numbers. He's younger, was a more highly touted prospect coming into college, and has NFL experience. Shough is injury-prone, has never put up big numbers against garbage competition and never won anything of note.

I doubt either ever succeed in the NFL, but if you told me one would have a long NFL career, I'd bet the house it's Rattler. Shough will be another wasted high draft pick that we blast this FO for taking (Jean Baptiste, Foskey, Turner, Sullivan, etc..)

We'll be taking Nuss or Arch next year. One of them will be our QB of the future and we can finally start this rebuild right.

Were the Hawks a playoff team?

This is such a stupid counter point. Can Dyson not be a good player, if the Hawks miss the playoffs? Because by that logic no one on our roster is good.

DD is an elite defender, a good teammate and person and is intelligent, young and hard working, so he'll continue to improve. The trade made sense for us at the time, but in hindsight, it was a disaster.

Jesus that roster is pathetic and this draft was pathetic too. We drafted one good player and he was a reach at 9. We wasted our second best pick on a quarterback WE ALL KNOW will never be a NFL starter. We're gonna pick top 5 again next year and go QB then, so we just wasted that pick. For what? A one year rental?

Yet, this board rejoices at the incompetence and convinces themselves that the shite sandwich they were just fed, tastes delicious. This franchise will never change and the fans deserve it.

Everyone is clamoring for OL or pass rusher, but NT is probably our biggest hole on the defense, so I don't see how we can go thru the first 3 rounds without taking one.

I know we have holes everywhere, but we don't have one guy that's a starting caliber NT for Staley's 3-4. If you're gonna trade up for someone, make it a starter and not a project QB (Dart).

Just because there's no sure fire franchise QB prospects, definitely doesn't mean there aren't any stars in the class. Jeanty, Hunter and Carter will all be stars.

Easily the least I've cared about this team in the 15+ years I've been a fan. I'm just about to the point where I'm actively rooting against them, out of spite. Hiring Dumars was the last straw, just as restructuring Carr for a second time was my last straw as a Saints fan.

Gayle Benson can get fricked. She's the worst owner in the NFL and NBA.

And yes, besides Dallas, we our the most depressed fanbase in the league.

Just read this quote from Dyson Daniel's and thought I'd share.

quote:

---

“That organization’s cursed,” Daniels told Fischer in an interview published on December 13. “Every year there's something new. I’m happy I’m not there anymore.”

“The curse, man. I had like four or five ankle injuries down there as well. There's something down in that water down there or something. They got hamstrings. They got knees. They got concussions and stuff as well. They get everything down there. I don’t know what it is. Playing hard I guess?”

---

He's 100% right. We're cursed AND management is incompetent. You put those two together and we're never gonna be a competitive franchise.

Graham falling to 9 is best case scenario, that's atleast plausible. Obviously guys like Abdul and Hunter won't be there.

I really want one of Graham, Campbell or Warren at 9. I want a 10 year pro-bowl/all-pro level player and all three have that written all over them.

Classic movie. Kids today don't have anything remotely this good.

I think Cade wins also. Vegas odds change daily.
