This. watching all these insecure posters try to dig their heels in and “beg them” to “do it” is laughable because they’ll be the first ones to aw shucks and “how could we have known what he’d turn into?” as the panthers get blown out in a meaningless game at the end of the season.

The NFL is rapidly turning into a "gamble big to win big NOW" league. Hell, I sure wish we'd done it during Cam's prime.

Even though I wasn't a fan of him coming into the draft, in hindsight I wish we'd let crazy Marty mortgage the future on swinging big on a trade to land Herbert.

And I wish we'd taken Mahomes when he was on the table, but you can't have everything.

How is Trey Lance a better prospect than Willis?

Better size, played in a much more advanced system, called plays at the LOS.  He supposedly interviewed amazingly and broke down multiple offenses and defenses and blew away coaches with his knowledge

 

The real question is, how is willis a better prospect at 6 then fields would have been at 8?

Seems like the Saints wouldn't make this trade without having a deal in place with someone like the Giants at 5. It's the only way it makes sense. Trying to pull off two separate trades to jump into the top 5 draft day doesn't seem likely.

Question is, IF the Saints jump up, will someone else jump them? That'd be fun.

Hell, I'm kinda done judging a QB by his system. Herbert played in a damn HS offense at Oregon. I let that fool me into thinking he wasn't capable of more.

      Updated 2025 draft order

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I'm still not touching Hunter He again said the other day that he plans on playing both sides of the ball in the NFL.  If he is allowed to do that, he won't be as good on either side as his potential and he's going to have serious injury issues and have a short career.  If he's not allowed to do it, I think he's going to become a problem when the team isn't winning as he's going to feel him not being used on both sides of the ball is why. He's being coddled in that environment with Deion and I think it's doing a disservice to him to prepare him for life in the NFL where your coach isn't a 2nd father to you, to where you can just walk into his locker room and steal his shoes like Hunter does to Deion.

      Real Mid-Season Development at QB: Bo Nix

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      He’s a tad behind them. Around 15ish of 32 starters in the league. He’s well ahead of a lot of guys. Tua, Bryce, Cousins (present), Rodgers (current), Devito/Jones, Minshew, Russ (current), Watson, Smith, Carr, T Laws deep ball is weak as poo IMO, there’s plenty. And it’s not like everyone is ripping 60+ers. The key component is if you can rip and maintain velocity of the 30-40 yarders which he does super well. Legit every report out there from Brugler to PFF to PFN document him as good/above average arm strength.  Eye test tells me it’s pretty much that as well, slightly above average.

      Predictions for Brooks debut

      By CBDellinger · Posted

      6-10 carries for  35-45 yds and 3-5 catches for 15-25 would be great.
