Thank you Dan Arnold

From the game time thread on the Saints message board:

SubmarineMike:  As thin as we are on WR/TE, maybe we should have made a play for their superstar TE Dan Arnold.  Dude seems like a real game changer.

St. Aaron:   Now I know what Carolina felt like when Ginn came to the Saints and learned how to catch.

He honestly is a case of the home town overvalue that every team does. Arnold is an NFL TE for sure but not some superstar lol. We smartly talked up that Darnold to Arnold poo and just got a top 10 pick off it. This team from top to bottom is much different and in each way seems to be for the much better.

kinda bummed we traded him. couldnt of been a deal breaker for this trade, but a smart TE and a position we need depth at. think him as the 1 made Tommy more of a weapon. 

Me too.  I guess if Henderson works out, it will be like Arnold is still contributing.

I actually saw those posts on their board and couldn’t stop laughing. To add context, Arnold had a key drop for the Saints in the playoffs and TGIF fans blamed him for losing that game.

    • Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies     
    • You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
