re: Sage Ryan and major burns haters

Posted by jbeard on 4/19/24 at 12:43 pm
I’m with you. I hope he is getting good coaching and getting better. I, for one, think Ryan has the physical tools it take to succeed in the SEC. I’m hoping he puts it together this year....

re: Josh Williams Spring Game TD [1 GIF]

Poor tackling and poor angles from the secondary were hallmarks of the 2023 defense. Hopefully it improves through off-season and the fall....

I agree with both sides here. Wade can coach. Also, programs like Kentucky or Alabama are not falling over themselves to hire him right now. Both can be true....

re: Which offensive tackle at 14?

Posted by jbeard on 4/3/24 at 1:33 pm
I like Fashanu best at 14, because he seems more like a natural left tackle. I think the Saints could trade down 5-6 spots and still get quite a few of those guys. Mims is intriguing. I don’t have a least favorite. I just think some will be available in the 20’s and I don’t want to draft them too ...
I would worry about moving a young man who played RT in college to LT at the pro level right off the bat. Might be setting him up for failure. I don’t follow Alabama closely. For those who do, why did he not play LT in college? ...
It will be interesting to see what happens to Wade. He didn’t have to coach much this year; they were just physically better than their conference opponents. Will he get another job in a top tier conference if he has a few good years at McNeese? If he’s one of the “best young coaches” in the game,...

Ole Miss finished below LSU is the SEC. 7-10 in conference....

re: ESPN: Saints Could Trade Lattimore

Posted by jbeard on 3/3/24 at 3:52 pm
Not going to get a first, likely. We are deep at corner, so makes some sense....
I get what the other poster is saying, though. Typical NFL play lasts 5-7 seconds, and the linemen lock up for about half that time. It’s more about burst and quick twitch strength. ...
Yeah, I would worry about drafting a guy who played right tackle on college and planning to move him to left tackle as a pro....

re: Olave Overrated

Posted by jbeard on 2/19/24 at 3:16 pm
I agree he has not reached potential and I think we should give him another season before coming to a verdict. But I would be happy if he was a top 15 receiver...
Agree, much nicer today. Great February weather....

re: 2024 Offensive Tackle Prospects

Posted by jbeard on 2/13/24 at 7:36 pm
No Latham, please. Seems like a lot of the Bama first-round tackles disappoint in the NFL. Leatherwood, Andre Smith, Fluker, Warmack, Jedrick Willis....

re: Head coaching dominoes to fall

Posted by jbeard on 1/10/24 at 6:54 pm
It’s tougher than one might think. Eugene is a heck of a lot nicer than Tuscaloosa (especially if he has a family). Plus, Oregon has a lot of resources and is moving to the other premiere conference. Plus, there’s the part about replacing the most successful Coach of the past 40 years....

re: Head coaching dominoes to fall

Posted by jbeard on 1/10/24 at 6:49 pm
Probably right. But Alabama folks think they can get anyone. Would be great if they took some big swings and missed on the first couple....
I agree. The thought from some people that House was fired because of that video is unbelievable to me. It ignores the performance of the defense this year and lack of improvement, which is a much stronger indictment of his performance....
Lenox was always going to be there when the Saints pick. He is maybe the 5th quarterback off the board....

re: Derek Carr Red zone stats

Posted by jbeard on 1/9/24 at 7:16 am
He (and the offense as a whole) were the problem for much of the year. They finished better, though....
Cam’s comment about how they should have gone for two cracked me up. I love that guy. Hope he retires a Saint....

re: 395 yards, 3 TDs, 69%

Some fans have been spoiled by 2019 and this season. I, for one, have not forgotten the years when we would have begged for a QB as good as Nuss. ...
