i think the effort will be there, but we won't be the only ones trying to do it. if we do, i don't think we get much out of it. most would likely be a 3rd and maybe a 7th, but even then it's a stretch.

i can see us doing something to try and get back in the 3rd round.

smart thing to do might just be to stand pat with what we have and load up on udfas. as deep as this class is, i suspect they'll be some decent talent to fall through the cracks and we've got just the right GM to spot it.

I could honestly see us trade back and grab an extra 2nd IF we're lucky. Basically a team would have to really want a player the Saints would be targeting.

1st) Jonathan Cyprien S/ Florida Atlantic

2nd) Keenan Allen WR/ Cal (possibly falls due to injury) or Quinton Patton WR/ Louisiana Tech

2nd) Larry Warford OG/ Kentucky or Justin Pugh OG/ Syracuse (seems to be rising but maybe he falls???)

I think a ton of teams are going to be trying to trade down this year. Probably more so than in most drafts. This seems like a deep draft, but not very elite in terms of the top of the draft.

We're fortunate that it's particularly deep in two positions where we have a big and immediate need - WR and DT. I'd love to see us go DT/WR in the 1st and 2cd.

I think we trade players to get more picks. Trading back is really hard to do.

Maybe not this years. So many teams with multiple picks and can't use them all. Then are teams like the Rams and Minny who might fall in love with a prospect and will try and trade up to get him.

Vaccaro. Saw on NFL network the other day. One of them mocked Vaccaro to NO. A team like Cincy or even SF may wanna move up for him.

      Strength of Schedule for 2025

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Bryce and Dave will determine how many games this team wins next year. It’s not on the WRs. The RBs. LBs. This is about 2 things: 1. Can Bryce continue to come up big in the few key downs that decide most games?  2. Can Canales evolve his play calling to counter punch like the big boys do. Half time adjustments.  teams that score 30+ points on the regular win more games than not. That’s on Bryce and Dave. The offense is top 10 at every position group, save for TE and QB. A baller TE is gravy but not crucial when the receivers are dudes.  The defense is the defense. It’ll be better this season, hopefully by a large margin, but Dave/Bryce is really where it’s at.

      Normally I'd wholeheartedly agree with this. But I feel like teams figured out this offense after the Raiders game. Bryce was so inept the first 2 games that we couldn't really even run the offense. Dalton's first game showed what we had. But after that game, coverages got a lot tighter and windows were smaller. When Bryce came back in, his ability to extend plays made a big difference. It's really difficult to stop a QB that can beat/escape 1on1 tacklers. It puts a lot of pressure on the defense when you blitz. And he was completing throws in tight coverage with anticipation. Point being Bryce wasn't throwing to wide open receivers that were schemed open by the offense. Occasionally yes. But not often.

      With the additions we've made to our roster combined with the state of the division and the conference as a whole there is no excuse for this team not to make a legitimate push for 8-9 wins. Anything less is honestly inexcusable. There will be no more free passes for being a doormat in this iteration of the league where even mediocre teams are competing for playoff spots.
