Would You Trade our 1st and 3rd to Insure that we Get Dorsey or Ellis? If Not What would You Do?

What we did in 2003 was make an aggressive move to get the player we wanted. I don't see how that's a bad thing. What was bad was thinking Sully was the guy we wanted in the first place. Our mistake was not trading up but in grading him that high. But in fairness, I don't think that anybody saw the human meltdown that is Jon Sullivan coming beforehand. If we had moved up and taken Williams, nobody would be complaining about it so again, it wasn't the move but the player we took.


Very true. In fact the trade was really good for the Saints. I like the Saints always looking to make a move. I wish they would make better choices.
