With New Orleans right behind us and wanting a QB and good for us it's most likely going to be Sanders. We have a huge opportunity to pick up some draft capital and drop a couple of spots. We'll still get a high caliber player in a position of need. 

More importantly we screw New Orleans. 

 

Go Panthers

Mcshay and other analysts are speculating the Saints could just pick BPA, roll with rattler, clear some cap space next off season and go for a qb in the next draft where there are some very talented dudes that potentially could come out.  In short, Arch in new orleans with a rebuilt roster and with cap space would be a problem.  I guess we will see what happens in a week

I don't know if their new HC came onboard for a tanking effort.

And when was the last time the Saints decided to go into full rebuild mode? Seems like they are always convinced they are just a couple players away from a playoff spot.  I think other teams will be predicting they want a QB with the first pick whether that turns out to be true or not.

I think their cap situation and aging players, coupled with who the fug knows what happens with Olave, then now they could be convinced to tear it to the studs and that takes a minimum 2 years at best.  No better time then doing it with a coach in his first year.  I can see this roster and rattler easily getting them a top 3 pick

Arch Manning to the Saints would be a interesting story. They almost killed his dad.

Thats actually the smart thing to do, but of course a lot of people are just gonna assume every other team is gonna do the stupid thing instead of the smart thing except for us.

I think they most likely gave some assurances that he has time to build but I wouod be very surprised if they opted to tank straight out of the gate. I mean it may happen anyway, regardless.

I am gonna be honest, I will have to see a lot from Arch to understand this hype. If he is this massively generational player, why has he never been able to beat out a 3rd to 5th round pick in a very, very weak QB draft?

I don't recall Lawrence or Luck needed this time on the bench in their "generational" career arcs.

Wasnt moore like their 5th option if we are being honest?  I think any sane coach can look at that roster, cap space etc and understand this is going to take time and no way its done over night.  There is a world where moore sold them on just ripping this thing down and rebuilding the right way without these insane contracts.   I guess we will see during the draft

I think its just the connection with the family that may have NO tank this season to get him

      MLB Devin Lloyd for WR Jalen Coker??

      By shaqattaq · Posted

      I'm not to sure it's a solid argument to try to estimate what he will do this season, BUT he's had a solid 3 years in the league. Here's his numbers compared to Jewell's for the same time period. I can see the logic of getting a starting MLB for a (at best) WR4. AT, XL and Tmac are certainly our top 3 guys IN 2025. Certainly worth pondering.

      Training camp just started and it's already starting... https://www.facebook.com/reel/24277303321904901/?mibextid=rS40aB7S9Ucbxw6v LOL No one believes you and you have fan pages sharing this with a "Play him or trade him" headline. Oh wee mayne. This is why no front offices wanted any part of this.

      MLB Devin Lloyd for WR Jalen Coker??

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Honestly, it only makes sense if you're trying to chase being the best bad team you can be this year. The number one question we need answered this season is whether or not Bryce is our long-term franchise QB. Trading away a second year WR who was second on the team in catch percentage, first in yards per target, and who clearly outplayed your 1st round pick for a likely one year rental fill in LB is exactly the type of short sighted desperation moves that has made us the worst franchise in the league under Tepper. We gotta stop making these types of moves and just focus on building a good organization and a good roster. Lloyd is a JAG LB another bad team and awful defense is wavering on and a couple of Panthers fans are salivating over him. Oof. We just need to be patient and wait. Definitely make some calls around the league to teams deep at LB and see if there's an opportunity to add one for a late round pick. Definitely shop the waiver wire hard. The reality is that LB is almost certainly going to be a weakness for us this year. We weren't fixing our entire roster in one off-season and we're not fixing an overall weak positional group in late July.  If you trade for Lloyd LB is still a weakness and you've given up a young promising WR who could potentially help you answer the question of whether or not Bryce is that guy. That's bad football business.
