Pickett at 16?

This is the point people miss when discussing about the Saints drafting a QB. It doesnt help the team short and long term.
The Saints signing Winston to a two year contract and trading away next years first indicates they are going with him for two years.

Besides i dont think Pickett falls to No. 16. All the good QBs will be taken by then.
I don’t think that you could come to that conclusion based on the evidence. Winston is essentially on a 1 to 2 year deal, and they do not have a first rounder Next year. If anything that would potentially put more urgency on getting a first round quarterback this year. Perhaps the Saints like Winston enough to commit to him for two years, but if that was the case then why not commit longer?
