2022--The Year We Move Up for a QB

This is my prediction. In the 2022 draft, the Saints will trade up in the first round to pick a quarterback. And if there is a quarterback Payton really likes, they will pay whatever price they have to pay to move up. My own favorite is Matt Corral of Ole Miss. Other quarterbacks listed as first-round possibilities are Carson Strong of Nevada. Malik Willis of Liberty, Sam Howel of North Carolina, and Spencer Rattler of Oklahoma.

But there are two types of teams in the NFL: Those that have a franchise quarterback and those that don't. The Saints currently fall in the latter category. Come 2022, we will fall in the former category.
And so why would Payton move up for a QB? Because you think so? Payton has had ample opportunities to move up in the draft, the past 3-4 years to draft a QB and didn’t. And those QB’s you mentioned, none of which are what one would describe the type to move up for. Especially, Rattler. Good grief.

Corral? What did he do against a high caliber defense, in Alabama? He probably is the Heisman front runner, but he “ain’t” all that, as far as being a high NFL draft prospect. We’ll see.
