The Saints May Get A Transcendental RB After All...

The thought of homegrown talent Leonard Fournette to any team other than the Saints must be disheartening for any of those fans. However, they may be getting a nice consolation prize instead.

Instead of getting the next Adrian Peterson, looks like they may be getting the actual one.

 
He's old and injury prone, but a change of scenery may prolong his career. Still a threat any way you look at it, and the Saints o-line is actually better than the Vikings.

Thoughts?

He has always been a victim of the stacked box and he has recently been a victim of shotgun runs. This move would solve both of those problems and would certainly be better for him than playing for the Vikings.  I think we do relatively well against power backs but go ahead and put me in the camp that says Peterson is not done putting up good numbers. In the right situation (like the giants - which oddly doesn't seem to be in play), he is still a top 10 back.

youall know it would be a good move for them and deep down wether your coucious of it or not it bothers you they got him. (if they get him)

 

Im usually one to mirror this sentiment, but AP isn't clutch. At all. Period. 

I'm more bothered that they have Ginn than AP.

Plus as others have mentioned, we've historically OWNED AP.

    • I am trying to remember when I EVER said reach for need. My thing if someone falls you jump, if you can trade back a few slots and get help at the right value and pick up some ammo to move up from 51 which I think is outside the money zone, then you do that.   Take a WR later. Plenty of capable WRs have come from the 3rd round. Though this year I would go for C there if there was a reasonable choice. Take a TE if you must. I see more reason to take WR than TE. I think you give guys drafted two years ago and last year a chance to develop before cancelling them.    I think it is kind of unrealistic to throw everything all in on offense in hopes of going deep in the playoffs after an 8-10 year, even if it did have some nice bright spots in it.    And outside of this argument but relevant to it, I am bothered by Canales and Morgan and their apparent posture that we have arrived and are now in the big boy club. I don’t know where that comes from. They are out there talking like they are winners at 8-10. Backing into the playoffs in a real convoluted tie breaker scenario. They had some good games, yes. But the big feather n the cap, the LA Rams matchups, did you see what the Rams did? They didn’t fire the coaches but they fired their defensive backs. Bryce beat them yes, and it was pretty, but it was kind of like the Bucs and Mike Evans picking on our decimated secondary in 2022. Someone (Wilks) went down for allowing that to happen and they went down in LA too.  Wr aren’t as good as a whole lot of homers think we are. Shore up the trenches.    I think too many fans buy into it because they are so starved for anything that looks like a winner. 
    • How exactly does one win OROY "by default"? Wouldn't winning the award mean that of the two, McMillon stayed strong the entire year while the other guy didn't and fizzled out? That's like saying Secretariat only won by default because the other horse stopped moving midway through the race. Absolutely zero logic in that statement, which makes me very glad that I've never really paid much attention to Walterfoozball.
    • I agree, teams in the past have fired the HC in order to retain a coach on staff...hell it happened to Mcderp this year, rams in the past and Im missing another.  The fall off for the Panthers team defense was huge once Mcderp leftd and Ron could not fix it even when he named himself DC.
