My vote for who we should take #1, Patrick Peterson

Not the biggest need (but still a pretty big one) and not a top value position like a QB but without-a-doubt the best player on the board. The guy is an absolute beast, best DB prospect to come around in a VERY long time, lives and breathes football and elevates the play of everyone around him. Not to mention he's made himself into a top return man as well. Here watch this and get all hyped and sh*t.

i wouldn't complain. but what about the offense? they have to make an effort.

Honestly, no matter who you take the offense is still going to be bad. Worst team in the league and it's not going to turnaround overnight. I'd rather start building by adding the best guys we can get rather than being desperate and reaching for guys that aren't really that good.

And AJ Green is one of the best guys we can get and he is also an offensive weapon that we will be in desperate need of a year from today when Smith will no longer be thought of as Elite.

Why is this so hard? It's Green. It's easy.

The only reason I would take a defensive pick is if I thought it could bring me a trade worth more to us than AJ Green, say like a DAMN GOOD QB!

FWIW this is the guy that shut down AJ Green, though I wouldn't hate taking Green either. Offense, probably best you can do is get a new offensive system and coaches in there. Fix the OLine, add a WR pickup or two through FA, trade up into the 2nd and take Kyle Rudolph, add a vet QB like Hasselbeck, ect, ect. Still plenty of moves there to be made.

Am I the only one that sees the importance of finding Smith's replacement now before we realize how bad we need him?

You cannot get that kind of WR though FA, young and with his whole career ahead of him, without giving up huge money or something very valuable for him like another high draft pick. What would be the point?

Capable receivers, and excellent receivers with a potential to become your main offensive weapon are two different beasts.

You can win championships with an elite receiver and a capable QB and even make it to the Superbowl. We have done that with Jake, Smith and Moose.

You cannot do that with "capable" receivers and average QBs.

We have a ton of needs. #1 receiver to replace Smitty, RG, LT to replace Gross (who is more of a RT anyway), TE, QB, DT X 2, CB, another DE in the rotation would help, good safety to move Godfrey to depth, PK to replace Kasay. F**k our team is a mess.

    • 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.
