And then Saints use that 11th overall on a WIDE RECEIVER!!!
That WR might be a good one, but when you have as many holes as the Saints, you don't poopoo that much draft capital. Be thankful we have a front office who isn't stupid, lol.

I smiled.

Saints also got OT Trevor Penning, 6'7", 325 lbs, Northern Iowa whom has a long wingspan (which the Saints always seem to value in linemen) and he was an absolute elite run blocker at a lower level, I believe PFF said they scored his run blocking at a 99.9 level, which has never happened. Still has work to do to improve his pass blocking, but he has the physical tools to be good at it.

Saints could have got Penning with 18th overall. Their original 2022 1st round pick.

I don't mean to imply they didn't get a good player. I love the fact they had to burn off some of their draft capital. It keeps them from getting too good.

I'm not the only one who gets it. Even a blue check mark does. Looks like the Tweet was tooken downsie.

"I like Chris Olave with the #Saints, he'll fit right in with them and should do very well. But consider what he cost, how many actually proven NFL players are worth a: 1st, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 3rd, 4th."

I'm just pointing out that the Saints (whom are extremely well known for being over aggressive), got two players, not just one for these over aggressive moves.

Yup, but their original pick would have netted that player regardless.

More folks noticing what I did days ago.


this is absolutely insane

in order to draft WR Chris Olave, OT Trevor Penning & a 6th....

the Saints gave up picks that amount to the following:

WR A.J. Brown
WR Jahan Dotson
RB Brian Robinson Jr
QB Sam Howell
TE Cole Turner
LB Kyron Johnson
2023 1st round pk
2024 2nd round pk
