I can see us winning a meaningless game and missing out on him.

It's what we do!

Crazy how the issues have been the exact same for six years. Arrests, injuries, and now rumors swirling about Goodwin potentially retiring? I've seen this movie before.

What rumors? All I've seen were fans speculating on message boards

Where did you read about Goodwin thinking retirement?

First round pick! Yeah!

And at the very least the Saints wanted him at that point too. Both teams recognized a top prospect with some red flag concerns who had fallen down the board.

Nobody complained at the time the pick was made seeing as he was thought of as a top 10 prospect.

Doesn't matter what the saints wanted. Doesn't matter what the fans thought. Doesn't matter what Adam Shlefter thinks either.

Bottom line is that it was a horrible pick in a very poor draft overall.

Thats all I'm referring to. Bad attempt at exaggerated sarcasm. I'm just sick of the same issues plaguing the team year after year.

Lynch is looking like a really crappy GM.

This hire came completely out of left field. I've been hoping for the best but at the same time I was skeptical because I knew he would be learning on the job. Which unfortunately for us was going to lead to plenty of mistakes with personnel.

Adam peters bandwagon!

Peters probably drafts Foster at #31 in 2017, too. Just saying,

So can we now stop trying to pretend this FO knows what it's doing and call the 2017 bust an abject failure? Let's stop making excuses for (Shana) Lynch. I can only remember the Browns and Detroit wasting TWO first round picks in recent memory.

But honestly, the team won't miss him that much. Injured and then suspended. He was okay but nothing we couldn't live without.

2019 off-season will be a reboot to the rebuild.

Oh and Bosa has some red flags. If he were even slightly less talented, he would NOT be considered in the conversation of us taking him #1 overall.

Great points, but I'm not hanging them by the 2017 draft. It wasn't like Thomas was a reach or a surprise. If anything we've used and developed him wrong. (Still a reflection of the front office and coaches but you get what I mean). Foster was a risk, but it made sense at the time. We knew this might happen. Sucks but we understood the risk.

Witherspoon is meh imo.

Beathard is ok. Probably could have snagged him later, but not a horrible pick.

Kittle is obviously the best pick of the draft. Seems like a great kid too

Williams was a huge bust.

Taylor and Jones are ok picks. They contribute.

Don't know the next guy lol

Colbert was a steal. Solid backup at worst imo

I guess many would argue this is a very "normal draft" it's hard to even hit 30% success never mind 50% right?

The problem is the misses at the top. Usually aside reaching for a an the first round or two are guys who will start and play well.

That cannot happen again and it looks like they got it right this time around with McGlknchey for sure. Warner for sure as well. However Pettis looks like s**t imo and again, tough to miss on a 2nd rounder.

Bosa flags? You mean injuries. I'm not that concerned tbh.

Why was it a horrible pick? Because of the character flags?
