Who do you think Sean Payton will draft first?

[MoistMayonnaise]

He's not an active employee for any NFL team, so..... no one.

 

[silvernblu]

MM is walking dead

 

[RS12]

He still isnt dumb enough to work for Jerry. Not under the current hierarchy anyway.

First priority is to fix the Oline and the run game. I would expect him to draft Olineman and RB's.

I would do the following:

1. Cut Zeke
2. Use the savings to resign Pollard and or Kareem Hunt
3. Draft a RB in the 2nd or 3rd round

1a. Use another first round pick on an Olineman. On the off chance that we have a top 5 pick and there is a stud DT there, take him!!!

and draft CJ Stroud top of rd 1

 

[Pompey-Cowboy]

Why is this even a thread?

 

[Zekeats]

Someone in the second round since he will cost at least 1 1st rounder

 

[Zekeats]

Why is this even a thread?

Because it will happen

Educate me on Stroud. Dont know him.

Eh, I thought the run game and o-line were among the least of our problems on offense.

 

[Aerolithe_Lion]

With the pick you had to trade to get him?

 

[ghst187]

Beat me to it. Everybody ready to cough up a 1st (or more) for this plan?

 

[DeaconBlues]

Well, after Dallas ships the 2023 1st and 2nd round picks as part of the compensation to the Saints, the 3rd round pick will be a punter.

Yes, you read that right. A punter.

It's as likely as prying Payton away from NO.

 

[Tommy]

I think he will look at his record without Drew Brees and realize he needs an elite quarterback immediately.

 

[john van brocklin]

?

If with the Cowboys it wont be with a first round pick.
The Saints will demand a Hershal Walker type draft Haul in compensation and Jerry will oblige them.

 

[Sydla]

Well our first with him would be in the 3rd round since we probably are going to have to trade top picks to New Orleans to get him.

 

[fivetwos]

Here we go again with people thinking the Saints are going to be able to demand multiple high picks when they aren't actually paying him under the contract that reserves his rights.

They are NOT going to bring him back, and they will not be able to refuse him the right to work by demanding outrageous compensation for his rights. It's It's bad look and not done.

Please try to understand this folks.

If he wanted to jump teams immediately, different story. After this year, way different. After 2023, he is basically a free agent.

And no one has ANY idea what was worked out when that contract was signed. Wasn't as if he left on bad terms and they are going to refuse what the guys wants to do.

So we already know Pollard is not an every down back so why use the 5m you save cutting Zeke to resign him when you are more likely to find a Pollard in the 4th or 5th round. Right now the team has holes at the WR position, holes on the OLine, need starting level players at every level of the defense, and with that being said using a day 1 or day 2 pick on a RB feels like a waste.
