I checked. Teams are allow to converse with players that could go undrafted but can’t discuss financial terms. Let’s hope this isn’t another Tommy Stevens situation. Last year, Saints felt like Panthers had already agreed to terms with Stevens so instead they just drafted him. 

Im not trying to act like an ass here but you seem so negative with every single post. Whats up with that? Even your screen name is sort of on the negative side. What is troubling you? What makes you content or happy? I mean, there are a number of negative guys on this board and some are nothing more than smart mouthed neck bearded internet punks who are part time filmmakers and full time spoiled brats but you are not to that degree yet you are always so negative it seems. What is the deal?

The. Saints. Drafted. Tommy. Stevens. Last. Year. 

I.  Know.  You are still trying to make something out of nothing.  You can talk to players before you draft them. I dont know how else to break it down for you.

Isn’t there something restricting teams from talking to undrafed free agents before the draft is over? Isn’t that how we and the Saints got into that mess with Tommy Stevens last year? If so, I’m afraid this video is going to bite us in the ass. Appeared that Rhule had already been talking to Fletcher prior to selecting him. 

Fletcher had been talking to another team about signing as an UFA, not us. That’s why when we called, he thought we were about to start pitching him the idea of signing with us. So no, we aren’t getting in trouble.

I think they can talk to them.  But they cannot discuss any money.

I am wondering if this was a Sulemani cap move.  We have an aging LS in Jansen that makes over 1 mil.  A 6th round guy will make 610k.  So we save 2 mil over the term and while maintaining to production.  
 

Still would have wanted Trey Smith or Stone Forsythe.  But I do like the kid.

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
