N/S Sick to my Stomach
maybe payton should have traded up to make sure he got him, if he gave a couple 1's for freaking davenport.....
Right.
This is what I alluded to earlier in the thread.
There's this narrative out there that Sean Payton just KNEW Mahomes was the next GOAT and that's the guy he wanted to draft.
I'm pretty sure SP has fed this narrative... to the point the OP is feeling sick to his stomach.
If that is the case, do we all think Sean Payton is just going to sit there at pick No. 13 and hope Mahomes falls that far?
Wasn't he about moving up to get his guy?
In previous drafts, SP and the Saints had moved up in the first round to draft Sedrick Ellis and Brandon Cooks, as well as moving back into the first round to draft Mark Ingram. Why not move up for Patrick Mahomes?
Do I think SP liked Patrick Mahomes as a QB prospect... very likely... Mahomes had a first round draft grade.
Would the Saints have drafted Mahomes had he fallen to us at 13... probably.
But if Payton was so in love with Mahomes, he likely could've jumped from the 13th spot into the top 10 to draft him... because that is what SP and the Saints did on draft day.
