Saints draft, wow

Leave it up to a bunch of Panthers fan to make fun of what was a good haul for the Saints in round 1.

Olave is an absolute stud and then they found Armstead’s replacement for cheap. 

Now they’re without their 1st rounder next year but just like with their constant cap situation, they’ll figure it out.

How much did Olave benefit from having Wilson on the other side of him?

It's the same reason I was wary of Devonte Wyatt who probably benefitted from all the attention Jordan Davis got. And I was wary of both the Georgia LBs who got to play with those two big boys occupying blockers.

Remember when multiple Huddlers freaked out about the Saints trading their 2 1sts to jump in front of us and draft Willis? Lol. So many horrible pre-draft takes.

We are talking about the Huddle here...remember all the "Darnold will be great" folks. lol

Honestly saints have been one of the best drafting teams of the last 6 years.....so they get a lot of space when it comes to it.....but I thought it was terrible. 

I do like Penning, that was a 9/10 type pick.

Olave was like the 6th best WR, Wilson got the Ds attention and Olave(who is tiny) feed off of it. Can MThomas do the same??, I have huge doubts....it's past time for them to make draft mistakes.

Looks like trash. Maybe London is the next Fitzgerald, but I think he's more likely to be considerably less. Penning seems like a decent pick there though.

We're going to be enjoying all the yellow flags Penning will draw. Olave, well, we'll see. We could be grabbing a lot of Olave'targetted INTs as well if they don't change their QB plans.

    • Let’s be real, there’s no way the Bengals can trade him for less than first round value from an optics stand point.
    • Disclaimer:  In June, I am usually optimistic.  In October, a policeman with a bullhorn is telling me that I have a lot of life ahead of me and to think about my loved ones as I gaze down upon him from my rooftop.   Having said that, I think our offense (down the stretch) was good enough to play KC and Philly tough.  So how many games would this offense have won if they played the entire season like they did in November-January and if they had a better defense?   If you could stretch the last nine games over an entire season and put a solid defense on the other side, I see 5 wins becoming 7 or 8.  Down the stretch, the Panther D surrendered 30 points or more in 5 of the final 7 games and managed to win 2 of those 5.  If they can win 40% of games in which their defense surrenders 30 points or more, then the math indicates, had that been the case all season, the Panthers should have won 6 or 7 games with their defense surrendering 30+ points.   This season, we are much better at WR (TMac, Renfrow, Horn, and I expect XL to be a lot better).  Bryce is confident and now a leader.    The Achilles' heel of the 2024 defense, the DL, seems to be very solid.  We got back Horn and Jackson on the corners, Smith-Wade is improving better than expected, we signed a stud Safety.  Derrick Brown returns.  While the D is not there yet, it is going to be better.   So if we ended the second half of 2024 playing at a level that should have produced 6-7 wins, better WRs and a better defense could result in 9 wins or more.
