According to ESPN's Seth Walder, the team is expected to part ways with Taylor Rajack—the franchise's first-ever director of football analytics. Rajack has served in that role since 2019, when owner David Tepper introduced the football analytics department.

It's likely that the firing was true but the AI article was made in an effort to get an article posted about it.

It's possible or even likely he will be but he's hasn't since he's still on the staff page. They are generally very quick to update that.

If you saw the movie Moneyball some of the things they did made sense, but MLB players can be more heady players without that killer instinct that some players have in NFL.  Every year players come from the lower rounds and flourish in the NFL.  Analytics say they are nothing to write home about and yet they make a career for themselves.  

When was the last time we hit on a lower round player?  Andrew Norwell?  Someone who was a starter and not some player that lasted 3 years on the team but never played.  I seriously cannot think of one player since Norwell. 

I am hoping that we draft, especially in the lower rounds, players that have an edge but might not have the greatest 40.  I love and hate at the same time Pachero. The man runs like a beast.  How in the hell did he drop to the 7th round.  This is what we have to get back to, to become relevant again. 

Bottom line analytics should not be a part of how our draft board is set up.

I noticed that too. But this isn’t the first instance of something being done but not announced quite yet this off-season. So we’ll see. May also be apart of a bigger picture with Tilis getting a shot to get some of his guys in and won’t be announced until everything is wrapped up.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      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.
