I don’t think the Saints have as much leverage as everyone thinks they do. Payton’s not gonna allow his future team to be gutted before he steps foot at the podium. He can just kick back and work Fox for another year until his contract is up and then the Saints get nothing for him. 
 

He’s going to get to pick where he goes and will have a say in that compensation. I actually believe him when he says he and loomis have discussed compensation. My guess is the team that gets him gives up a second this year and a future first (and that’s as steep as it gets). The value of those two together probably come pretty close to a pick in the 20’s in this years draft.

Didn't Cam have his highest completion % in 2018 after we fired Dorsey and got the Turners? We gotta stop re-hiring guys that we fired on these Carolina pro sports teams

I don't want Dorsey, but that has less to do with any work that either coach did with Cam and more to do with the scheme differences.  Shula ran a very archaic passing scheme.  Relied too much on vertical routes and we often didn't give Cam many options underneath.  On top of that, he didn't often have the guys who could consistently separate.  Led to a low CMP%.  Norv Turner wasn't great but his passing game was more modern and gave Newton more options to get the ball out fast.

Payton interviewed with Broncos Tuesday morning in LA (i.e. afternoon East Coast time), not Monday morning 

My mistake, still isn’t it odd it’s coming out now. I remember during the Watson stuff ppl were reporting meetings went well right after it.

There's been reports that Loomis now wants AT LEAST 2 1st rounders! I'm for hiring Payton but hell no to that asking price! 

Saints do have a lot to lose if they are asking too much, Payton would just sit out next season and then be free of his contract and NO wouldn't get any compensation. 

 

And Carolina wanted two first rounders for McCaffrey. Just cause they want doesn't mean they will get it. Their options are Carolina and Denver right now, and Denver certainly doesn't have that to give.

      Thoughts on using AI for drafting?

      Why? AI already taking jobs, running up power bills, drinking all the water and just bad for the environment but hey lest try to shoehorn another useless way to use it.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.
