Am I the only one that doesn't see what the big deal is about this whole Bounty thing? The whole thing seems pretty silly to me especially with the amount of money that was involved. It's not like it was a real incentive. Sh*t has been going on for years. Back when Buddy Ryan did it in 1989 it was damn near applauded by the media, coaches, players, and fans....now everyone is so p*ssy hurt by it. I just don't get it.

Im ok with bounties for stats like sacks, big hits, ints and all. But are you guys saying you are ok with bounties to injure players or get them out of the game? Im sure if you were a player that got injured because of this and couldn't play anymore you would be singing a different toon.

not saying I am ok with it Salty...I'm just saying I'm pretty sure it happens everywhere...maybe just between groups, or buddies or whatever.

I just think all teams do it....what's the difference between that and going after the injured ankle of a player to get him out of a game? All players do that and it's accepted. That's why teams will tape up both ankles of a player to try and mask which is the injured one.

I know times have changed and with player safety such a hot topic something has to be done. No argument there but...

I guess just reading some of the threads around here and the unhealthy obsession a handful of people have with it (and all things Saints I guess) makes it seem like it is the biggest scandal in NFL history. I haven't been watching much Sportscenter in the last month or two so all I have to go on is what I see here but it is almost as if Gregg Williams and Co. nailed Christ back to the cross. (My apologizes to those offended by my distasteful reference).

    • 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.          
    • 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.
