re: Saints released QB Ben DiNucci

One of our division rivals will probably sign him

Saints pick OU LB Danny Stutsman
______________________________________

I'm happy with this pick.

The games I saw him play, he was all over the field.

This fills a need too

Oh look who Denver picked up in 3rd ?

Sean Payton takes an LSU player for Denver.

Go figure !!!??. Maybe it was Loomis that hates them . ??

I’d love to have someone tell me he’s somehow better than Rattler

_______________________________________________


Well this is Moore's first draft.

Considering he has been a quarterback in the NFL and has two former NFL quarterbacks on his coaching staff. I'm going to trust their judgment on evaluating this year's quarterback prospects better than you.

We needed another quarterback because of "Eyeliner" Carr's situation and this was their pick


I will wait and see what they present on the field the entire upcoming season !

My problem with the Banks pick isn’t the player himself. I think he’s going to be a solid pro for a long time actually. My problem is where the player was selected. Could have traded back and gotten him at 13-14. This meat of this draft class is 2nd and 3rd round guys that can help you rebuild. Could have gotten some extra capital by trading back once or twice and ended with the same result. We all would have been very happy with that.

___________________________________________


I'm with you on that. I think we could have have traded back a little and got the same player or same position and gain an additional pick or two

1st round thoughts ?

Posted by saintlad74 on 4/24/25 at 10:58 pm
This seemed like a weird 1st round draft to me.

Saints pick, felt like that Christmas present you were hoping to get , ends up being socks.??

Basically thinking " Oh, ok. I did actually need these"


What are your thoughts?

re: Carr’s house is up for sale

Posted by saintlad74 on 4/22/25 at 9:08 am
It's not a big enough space to park our Carr !!!
So the GM of one of our rivals is telling other teams " hey if you want a quarterback we're willing to trade the position ahead of the Saints'.

Shocker!!!??
She also says that Carr simply does not want to be a bridge QB and is, paraphrasing, milking the injury excuse because he doesn't want to do that, he wants out
______________________________________

That doesn't make sense to me ?

Why would he fake an injury this late in hopes to going somewhere else ?

What team would want a QB in his 30's with a shoulder injury? And he wants to be the starter ?

I don't like Carr and not trying to defend him, but doesn't seem like a smart plan if real

re: Kam Williams to Kentucky

Posted by saintlad74 on 3/28/25 at 1:22 pm
Wow, 60 miles away and Mc-Hallman can't even get him

___________________________________________

Well Kentucky has the pedigree for basketball over LSU , especially if you have aspirations for the NBA.


I sure you if there is a talented football player 60 miles from Kentucky campus, odds are LSU football looks much more desirable than Kentucky football.

Plus he might want to just get away for a little bit.
My buddy and I got to talking yesterday about Cam Jordan and seeing if he is HOF worthy?

We have been talking about going forever when we're certain Brees will be voted in

We are assuming Brees is going to get in on the first ballot ,next year, so we sort of plan to go and see his ceremony that time.


I was just wondering about the experience. What did you do ? How was your hotel stay?

How has Brandin Cooks never made a pro bowl?
______________________________________

Not sure, I'm still wrapping my head around why Drew Brees never won an NFL MVP?
I am not a fan of trading up unless there is a player you really really want, especially in the later rounds


I would just used those 7th round picks on a specialist or a lineman who blew it up in the smaller college divisions. Or trade them the get higher picks in next year draft
Probably the only team on that list to lose a first team all pro player and got zero pics.

What a freaking joke.

_______________________________________

Exactly and San Francisco seems to always get extra comp picks?


I never understand the formula for comp picks. Can someone explain how we missed out on Zack Baun comp pick ?

re: Baun is off the table.

Posted by saintlad74 on 3/5/25 at 9:55 pm
Fine.

He gets paid and it's a big hit to Eagles salary cap.

Eventually they have to release other good players
What defenses are you referring to outside of the one year he was DC for the rams?
______________________________________

Exactly, keep in mind he had players like Aaron Donald, Jalen Ramsey on their roster.

This was a defensive roster built by Wade Phillips, several years removed from that BS Super Bowl appearance ( FY Roger Goodell and Officials)
Returning a WR coach when no WRs could catch the ball. Smart. Business is looking up already.

_________________________________________

....how about wait and give the new head coach a chance before you evaluate his decisions on coaching hires ? ??

He is literally a day into his job and there might not be better options wanting to come here.
There is a whole espn article that outlines everything

The team did quite a bit more than give some advice

_______________________________________



Great timing.

Super Bowl media week

Saints needing a head coach.

It's almost like it was planned. ??

This franchise and fanbase will not tolerate “several seasons” of tanking.
You’d start seeing the paper bags again. That’s reality.

______________________________________

You clearly were not around for the 60s- early 80's Saints, or the years of the Billy Joes, and Haslet years !!

Saints fans have tolerated a lot.

Baun and compensatory pick ?

Posted by saintlad74 on 1/26/25 at 3:38 pm
Are we getting a compensatory pick for Zack Baun in this upcoming draft? If so, good chance for 3 rd ?

Was commenting on how stupid the Giants were for getting rid of Barkley and I mentioned that least they'll get a compensatory pick out of it
