Whatever they do, it's gonna screw us.  With them taking whoever they get, and the Falcons taking Lance that win against Washington really fuged us.  No matter what we get at 8, both of them got better and did so ahead of us.

This will really be the test of how good of a coach Rhule is.

Good lord, some of you will still be ranting about Rhule putting the dagger to Rivera on your death bed.

If the talk is about moving up in front of us in particular, then it 100% has to be for Sewell if he falls, as there is nobody else they'd want to keep us from drafting as any other position, there would would be multiple options of similar level/value.

But I can't see how they could make that jump, even with the connection with the Lions HC, they'd have to give up at least 2 future firsts and likely a little more to make the jump that high.  No reason for the Lions to move THAT far down in the draft for anything less than that.

Hell, I don't even want to move back to 15 with the Patriots unless we're also getting their Second this year and First next year, too big of a drop given the players we can get at 8 and there.

And to be honest, as much as I want Sewell, I just don't think the Saints are a SB contender right now with their QB issues without Brees, so if they want to mortgage their future first rounders to take a player we want, so be it, we'll still get a great player at 8 or trade down a few spots and still get a great player while picking up extra picks.

Totally disagree...they want a QB...let them give up a bunch to get ahead of us...the only QB I really like is Lawrence....and maybe Jones

Boy I hope so. I'm mentally preparing for Pitts.

    • I'm sorry but if you're saying the things you are then you don't know ball or are just trolling.    Differential says the hornets are the 7-8th best team in the NBA. They started the year off injured and horrible in clutch moments. They are -6 in expected record because of the above two things and have found out how to win.    Coaching is absolutely not a problem at all, it's a big reason they are turning the corner and winning.    12-3 over the last 15 with only one of those losses at full strength.  +2.8 differential  Starting lineup has the best net of any 5 man lineup in NBA history. They are favorites in 15 of the teams last 22 games.  Their expected record is 44-38, which likely gets them the 6th seed.   
    • I wouldn’t complain if we drafted Dillon Thieneman at #19 and finally fix the FS black hole we’ve had for so long. He’s a natural cover 3 FS.
