For a team thats

"Rebuilding"

Thats

"Building through the draft"

Yes

 

 

 

yes...........thats exactly what you do.  You take in that draft capital and get UDFA.

 

You dont throw away some pretty good comps (Bradberry, Addison, McCoy)  for some scrubs

WTF would we sign Seth Roberts now? Do it after the draft when he doesn’t count? Hurney is a freaking idiot. Bunch of morons we have running the show now. We probably had a 3rd, 4th and two 5ths coming in 2021 and now not only will we not get the top pick we won’t have any ammo to move up. SMH, Teddy’s going to get us about 18-20 wins over the next three years. Just enough to miss out on Lawrence and Fields and even Howell if you like him.

Look at that page. There are teams that have signed a lot of players. The difference is that none of them cancelled out all their picks like us and also, none of them got worse. We went from Cam, Bradberry, Addison, McCoy and Butler to Teddy, Weatherly, Burris and Roberts. We not only got worse, we lost a 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th in the process. SMH. We are playing connect four with 3 pieces. People were saying we don’t want to be the Browns because of the losing. We are the Browns because of our front office. Can’t wait to see the draft.

Also, don’t bother trying to explain stuff to apologists. They see the good in every move. The same people bashing me for wanting Lawrence over Cam are now acting like Teddy is good to go.

I can’t even laugh at y’all over this because as a Saints fan, I’m all to familiar with a front office that largely couldn’t care less about compensatory picks.

I honestly can’t tell you with any certainty of when our last comp pick was.

This SI article has us with only 10 compensatory picks of the 812 available since 1994, the lowest in the NFL.

New Orleans has received only 10 out of the 812 compensatory picks offered by the NFL since 1994.  This is the lowest total of any NFL team in that period.

According to this guy, y’all have had 18 in the same span.

Honestly, it looks like the consistently good teams are at the top and the consistently mediocre teams are at the bottom with some exceptions. I’d think most of it does have to do with drafting well and not being able to resign/afford everyone but there’s also cases like this where even though we will suck this year, we blow our wad on crap and get nothing for decent FAs walking.

It wouldnt shock me if they sign 20+ UDFAs and you know where some will come form...

  But y’all don’t basically ignore UDFAs. How many did the Saints pull out of that group? This GM signed 4 and 8 AAF players. 
   
   Doing it during a “mixed reboot” (LOL) is what’s baffling.

Indeed, we weren't very strong at drafting until about 2016 but since then we've been on a considerable roll so that's kinda paying off. And of course we've signed a few duds in FA when we really did try our hand.

True, Payton does love him some UDFA's. I can't lie there.

    • lol well that kinda ended up working out in the end, even though I still don't have my jersey yet. Was supposed to ship by tomorrow this time, but just got another email saying it was delayed another 3 weeks and because it's been delayed so long, I had to tell them to keep the order or cancel it, but gave me a 25% off my next order as an apology. Well, my original fear came true and they are now selling the FUSE version (but still not the Blue unfortunately) before the one I ordered was ever shipped. But that's awesome, because I was able to use that coupon to order the FUSE instead and then cancelled the original order.  So I got the jersey I wanted for only $6.30 more than the crappier version costs, and it also says it will be shipped immediately and get here early next week, or 2 weeks before the other was now supposed to be shipped out.
    • I've watched this and think we are well underway.  Believe it or not, Bryce is a big part of this.  The way he bounced back with such grace.  And we've got a lot of young players who want to make their mark, Dave is giving them an opportunity.  I loved our draft.  I like the number of guys we brought in, and they will help build the culture we want under Dave.  We're getting closer, and I think we'll see more wins this year than most of the board. The right culture breeds winning, and winning builds the right culture.  Imho, it's coming.  
    • As others have said it's both. One creates the other. But it also takes time sometimes years. And there have been teams lately with new car smell coaching staffs that looked like they were putting it together quickly but things came crashing back down to Earth. Sustainability is the key. For that to happen the meddling of our owners has to stop and they cannot be tempted to return to their ways over any bump in the road either.
