Local reporters and Huddlers with inside sources never get it right. 

Walterfootball, which everyone in our fanbase makes fun of has been nailing it on the other hand.

Didn't Walterfootball say Cross?

 I hope he succeeds, the last Nigerian Tackle we drafted was a Nigerian Nightmare

seriously what the fug does that have to do with anything?

I think we took so long to get the pick in cuz we were contemplating trade downs but in the end they took the bird in the hand and I’m glad they did. I’d love a 2nd round pick to try to get a QB with, but we got the best OT in the draft, maybe best offensive player. You don’t pass that up

Ekwonu/Christensen/Bozeman/Corbett/Moton is real now and I'm so happy

I'm still in shock. I keep thinking I dozed off and it was a dream.  I don't want to wake up.

This line is now built for whatever comes next

Baker or Jimmy G can lead us to a wild card berth with this line

A first round rookie next year will have time to develop and not be ruined. 
 

This was smart. 

Or, y'know, let Darnold play behind an actual NFL OLine for once in his career.

I'm talking about the website, with both mock drafts. Walter himself has been pretty accurate since 2017 though.

[Mr. Scot]

Saints traded up to 11.

Wonder if they take one of the quarterbacks.

Hopefully our answer at lt for years but Daniel Jeremiah has this quote...

Worst-case scenario, he slides inside and becomes a Pro Bowl-caliber guard

if getting a pro bowl guard is worst case, I can live with that.  Jeremiah had him #3 overall fwiw

Seriously. The kid is not only an American but a Charlottean too. He is our guy.

[TheRumGone]

They gotta be taking Malik 

[Varking]

Got the second best player in the whole draft… at 6… at a position of need? Super win for us.

I'm sure they were on the phone.  Most of the top 5 had their pick in pretty quickly.  In the end someone was trying to fleece us and Fitterer said "No Way"
