CMC worth the pick?

[The Huddler]

Also with how many players end up being total busts,

 

im happy to snag a guy who is a cornerstone of our offense with that pick. 

 

This “worth it” talk is silly. Go get your guy. Hes our guy. 

 

This isnt fantasy football. CMC was the best pick for us at the time. No one knew how good Kamara or hunt would be. No way anyone would have picked them in the 1st. They are talented players but its not like they are producing on shitty teams. They have the best offensive coaches in football calling shots for them.

The fact the saints got Kamara in the 3rd is straight up luck. If anyone knew how good Kamara would be he would be a top 10 pick as well. 

 

The saints didnt plan on nailing a CMC esque player in the 3rd round. That was luck. 

 

The we could have had talk is silly. 

We are talking about post results post draft and looking back we could of had a much better draft class on our hands. I appreciate CMC and our offense, however, we could of gotten more value.  The saints just lucked up on Lattimore and Kamara in same draft or their scout team is really good? CMC is not rushing like he was in college he is however being a superior pass catching RB like he was in college as well. Like I said if CMC had the tackle breaking power such as Kamara or Joe Mixon or KAreem Hunt then he would also be a legit 3rd and 1 back as well.

Saints got lucky on Kamara. Saints took a really good CB

 

 

right now CMC is much more valuable to us than a CB would be

This is like when people were crying we should give a Guard a LT contract cause he was a Pro Bowler.

Or honestly, being in Texas, like all the arguments Cowboys fans are making that they didn’t overpay for Cooper.

You do realize there's a rookie salary cap now and even 1st round picks are a bargain?

I agree for the most part, which is why I PIE'd. Not complete luck though. Saints liked him enough to trade a future second for him. Payton clearly had a vision.
