And yet the huddle moaned for two months that Rhule would take him at 6 like it was even a question but rather a certainty 

Consider that the team is likely to claim they had Corral ranked higher than they actually did. Not uncommon. Hence why you should basically always ignore what a team "claims" they had a player ranked/rated. It's almost always BS.

But not always...

We had indications of this before the draft as well. And it fits in with McAdoo's MO.

I can't believe this narrative is still being pushed. I want nothing to do with Baker or California G.  

It rhey want a true veteran presence,  then sign Foles. At least he won't embarrass himself and he knows he wouldn't be coming here to be a long term answer.

Foles just signed with the Colts.

Not always but I take what they say with a grain of salt. Hard to know what is attempting to control the narrative and what is actual fact.

Also not sure how much input McAdoo has in our draft board. Then again, Phil Snow was largely responsible for Sam Darnold, so who knows what random voice causes a decision in our organization these days.

Not exactly true. All Snow did was give a comment on Darnold when watching film. He did not advocate for signing Darnold.  Rhule took that and ran with it.

Yeah but that ties back into exactly what I am saying. All it took was Snow telling Rhule that he looked like Stafford and it was off to the races. 

So will McAdoo have that kind of influence on Rhule or will it just be whatever person talked to him last? It seems like with the commenta Rhule has made that he isn't exactly an expert on prospect evaluation. So it's going to come down to those around him that he listens to. Obviously, last time it was Phil Snow. Who was it this past time? McAdoo? Fitterer? Some homeless guy that showed him some YouTube videos?

Ellis, Verge and others had Corral as our number one QB prior to the draft.

I know there's narrative manipulation and all, but this is one I'm buying.

Hell, they'd have to have been fortune tellers to see how this played out.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
