How in the fug can the Saints move into the top 10?

I don't see it, but I guess I wouldn't be surprised.  At this point we'll be in the 2030s before they start paying the price for all the crazy black magic they've done in the last 10 years.

Hell, they only have the cap space for 1 pick anyway, might as well trade them all.

I get that everyone has their preferred player pick, but there's got to be something to Mac Jones if Nat likes him, Kyle Shanahan likes him, Rhule likes him AND got to spend time with him at the Sr. Bowl, etc., etc.. Jones wouldn't be my first choice, I want Sewell, but I'd still be stoked about the pick. If Rhule and Fitterer feel like Mac Jones is the pick after all the evaluation they've done, then LFG. Either way, I expect our draft to be strong, to be graded poorly by the pundits, and then glowingly when they do their '2021 Re-Draft' articles in 2022, lol.

But in reality my predictions are dependent on the movement around the Panthers. 

-Mac Jones falls to us he is the pick 
-Mac Jones does not fall but Sewell does, Sewell is the pick
-Neither Sewell nor Mac fall to us, Horn is the pick if we don't manage a trade down
-We do manage a trade down and go back for Slater, Waddle, or Farley

My guy has said Mac at 3 and Lance at 4, so that is the current assumption I am working on that we are either getting Sewell or Horn depending on trades.

Have you been hearing the Chargers are looking into possibly moving to 7 for Sewell?

Sewell and Jones both fall to us, we take Jones?

    • I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball 
    • 100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.
    • I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
