Saints Draft Re-do 2020

I believe this is correct. However, why force a pick if need, when the best football player in the nation (Johnathan Taylor) was available and Tee Higgins? Not saying that Ruiz hasn’t been a good addition, but there were ready to go players on deck and we went with a “need” pick. I dislike thinking about hypotheticals, but i sometimes wonder what could’ve been in the 2020 playoffs, if we had Taylor or Higgins?!?!

I agree with you, and don’t know what decisions about the OL/keeping Brees protected affected which decisions. Having a guy like Aiyuk or Higgins on this roster would be very nice. Maybe they wind up keeping Easton, and maybe the answer at IOL woulda been a fifth rounder instead of giving up half the farm for Trautman.
