In a perfect world we would have a 1 and 2 WR that can stretch the field, win contested catches and pile up YAC. Then Adam work the middle and be a clutch chain mover and sneaky dagger. This is far from a perfect world so.. here we are using the slot as our primary target.

Hindsight isn't 20/20 as the saying goes but it's easier than foresight. That said if I was GM I wouldn't had chased relevance with all the retread QB's. No TB, no Baker, No Cam reunion tour, and No Sam. Instead I would have bit the bullet and committed to a rebuild using all the draft capitol. Added a developmental QB other than Corrall and called it a day. Heinke, the XFL wonder, etc would have either produced a top 5 pick or some surprise wins. My overall draft strategy would be mid round RB's, several CB's, Linebackers that fit a 4-3, fast small school WR's and lots of Olinemen. Oh and I would slap Rhule in his fat jowls.

28-13 Saints. It pains me to say it but I have 0 faith in the secondary. I hope I'm wrong. I also need Jamal Williams to be shut down. Playing against him in FF. I have Nick Chubb they have Jamal. 107 to 110. I'll be sweating it out tonight.

I just want to put him beside Ickey and get Corbett back and go from there. BC is the swing tackle and quality depth guy. Chandler has shown me some grit. Playing RG when I think LG is his more comfortable spot.

We should have taken Will Levis. Lol. AR is baby Cam. Stop. It hurts. The laughing. Take the hot takes and shove em where the sun don't shine. Probably cooler there. Bryce is gonna be fine. I'm excited to watch him. CAM was uber talented but Bryce has the football acumen that Cam lacked. He going to make a different type of play. Smart plays. Like a more dynamic Teddy B. Teddy B making some deep ball plays would have been enough to win some games we loss.

This. In college Cam and Bryce stood head and shoulders above everybody else. National Titles, Heismans, and dominance in SEC. AR? Not so much. Does this mean he won't be successful nah. It just means he is no SUPERMAN.

Sky is falling. Shenault in concussion protocol that don't sound like a season ender. Should be fine for week 1. Chark's hammy is concerning if it's a bad strain. We will have to see. Shi should get some reps while everyone gets healthy. Is TMJ's injury healing well? I just gotta say my mantra for this season. We gonna be fine. We knew it was going to be the Mingo and Adam show with some Miles and Hurst sprinkled in. When cuts are done somebody gonna fall through the cracks at WR. The Jennings kid that caught the TD looked to have some size to him. I'm not ready to trade Corrall and Chinn for another teams flotsam. Say it with me. We gonna be fine. Save some gloom and doom for when the season has actually started.

Zach Evans, Archane, and the same guys you mentioned. I'm just not a huge believer in Chubba.

Slightly annoyed Fitterer and co didn't address the position in last draft. As a philosophy I like taking chances on later round running backs every other draft. Chubba has never really impressed me. Yeah he showed a lil something but nothing that would have stopped me from drafting another guy. I like Blackshear I'm pulling for him. That said I don't remember exactly who was available for that pick we used on DJ Johnson ( who I hope ends up decent) but if we were already thinking bout adding a vet across from Burns seems a wasted or at least long term pick. I know management has some faith in a Chubba, Miles, Blackshear and Brown backfield but I don't. Kinda like the corner situation I like the guys but as far as a draft strategy I like my corners, RB's and offensive linemen as overachievers weighted against they draft status.

He not complete trash. Honestly in that San Fran system he could excel. Stop wait for it. They wanted him to run more in our previous offense. LOL. Yeah he looks like a RPO guy that's gonna scare defenses. Game manager doing some play action is his game. Throws a decent deep ball but reading and reacting is never going to be his thing. He got that New Jersey stink still on him. Confidence took as many hits as he did.

Lol.

Doubling down on prediction. We sweep all the division rivals and beat the Cowgirls. 7-11 but win NFC South. Lol I can dream. That's what preseason is for not whatever some folks on here doing.

I want that win against the Falcon. I predict 3-3 before the bye.

Darnold is what he is. A decent backup. You hope he never sees the field. The fact he was our starter is sad. Ol silver platter Sam serving up INT's and game losing drives. That said Baker was even more disappointing. Where's the fire Baker? You can't bake anything on the warm setting. 40 yards passing in a half ain't gonna cut it.

Our oline has not been the 5 we gonna start. It's been fluid. We trying to evaluate the back ups and see where they fit. We played Chandler at RG A lot last game and I think he is better at LG. Has BC played if so I missed it? Corbett, Bozeman, Icky and Moton are the guys and Corbett is out still. The coach for the oline is stellar. He gonna put the best 5 out there, maybe they aren't all available or because we are evaluating the other guys we are seeing some other groupings. Michael Jordan is trash. If I see him on the field I know we phoning it in. Bozeman is rusty. New QB exchanges and protection off a bit. It will be fine. Icky might be better suited as a RT but he the guy right now. Let it work. Y'all think 5 series between two games makes a game? Ya gotta get in rhythm. Games are win and lost on more reps than that. Mingo is a beast. Miles is different than Chubba. Hell Blackshear needs those carries more than him. It will work it self out. Overreacting a bit?

Mars. Believe.

Yeah you right seems like a Pittsburg type of fan. Some of the loudest easily triggered bandwagon type fools out there. Waving the terrible towel like a toddler going through they terrible twos with they "blanky" I just don't want him. He can go be a Browns fan. I hear they got a really expensive predator type QB. I don't care what team he pulls for but all the "Motherfugger this and that bout my boys is silly" Bryce is going to kill it quietly and softly. Like the Fugees. I'm not worried. HAKUNA MATATA up in this bitcxh till the season goes for awhile And even then I'm gonna give it a bit to gel before I think the sky is falling. Chicken littles need they chicken heads chopped off and let the real barnyard kings speak. "COCK A DOODLE YOO" y'all

TLDR. I did read it though. Fact is This was not the starters. Some these guys have already lost they spots. Other guys have shown something and are moving into those spots. Coaching staff is evaluating to make cuts and are holding back on the playcalling. It's basically scrimmage or practice. The poster seems to have a lot of conviction we trash, DONT WATCH. Jump off the train. We don't want you. I'm gonna pull for these guys that work hard and make the squad. I dare ya to tell Dion, Blackshear, Shi, Barno, Raequan Williams, Jammie, and Sam"MFing" Franklin Jr they just running around out there not earning they paycheck. Me myself I got excited to see DJ Johnson showing up on plays. Same with Shi and Blackshear playing hard when the game was not going our way. All Barno does is run at the QB at 4.3 speed that will work out eventually. WE will be fine. GO be a packer or COLTS fan. Jump on a bandwagon and fug off.

I saw this thread coming as soon as he threw that TD. Nice moment. With game in the balance proceeded to fail miserably to get us into field goal range on a two minute drill. I will say in his defense we had the worst incarnation of our oline out there. Micheal Jordan has used up all his opportunities. I love Smitty doing the commentary. Jordan getting his lunch money taken. Got stood up there. Lol. Luton looks the part of a classic statuesque pocket QB. He stayed in the pocket with pressure and made a play or two. Corral didn't get a touchdown but him and Shi were clicking. After Shi flubbed on a play he stepped up his game later. If Corral or Luton ever see the field during the season it will be a BAD thing. Luton on practice squad and with new rules Corrall will likely get that 3rd spot.

Elite. If the injuries don't hit. Horn and Donte staying healthy is of paramount importance. Usually scheme changes scare me. Transition takes time and often scheme specific players are lost in the process. I actually think most of our guys will thrive in the new system and the new additions are experienced in the 3-4. Chinn and Matos could be scheme change casualties. I hope not. Burns is going to blow up. Brown and Luvu are also going to evolve further and continue their ascension. Donte and Shaq will need younger eventual heirs to their spots but not in the immediate future. But they are good veterans much like Tuttle, Dion, and DeShawn. Eventually it would be great to find a young ILB, DE, and CB. Another draft from now and keeping Envero in the fold we will be that much closer to a top 3 defense.

I hope it works out. Naturally gifted athletically but maybe a bit raw. I think Envero can mold him. I was not a huge fan of the pick though wanted a corner.

All your guards belong to us. We have added so many guards and this guy seems like a draft bust.

Shaq and Luvu backed up by combinations of KGH, Chinn, Dion and hopefully Brandon finally gets it. I like it. That's a fast ball hawking ILB crew. I also like the LaByron Ray pick up. I actually liked him out of college where he did pretty well. The scheme fit wasn't quite there then though. I thought he could play some DT and LE in the 4-3 we were running. All in all I'm loving the moves.

Seems everyone is on the same page. Been thinking for years that Hunter fits but a trade is not likely and the money might not be right. We need to get Brown and Burns locked down and look to draft that guy on the opposite side. A combination of Haynes, YTG and the young guys should work till we have a lottery pick of a difference maker. Can't give up picks or tie up salary till we have established our identity. Hopefully we have found the answers at WR,RB and QB and can focus on defense in upcoming drafts. Along with Brown, Burns and Horn as the cornerstones on defense that would give us the foundation.

Never wanted Punchable looking like he smells a fart face Payton. He is the enemy. The Saints with their bounty gate and Kamara show time after time they lack class. That starts with the HC. Then they wanted draft picks for the privilege of having this Dbag sully the reputation we as a franchise have worked to have. Nah. Better than Rhule yes, but I have always hated seeing Paytons smug face on my TV. I love Drew Brees. One of the few Saints players I respected.
