Drafting a QB in the first 10 picks.

They've let us down mightily in the past, but if they decide there's a QB they can't resist... Do it.

Have to trust them to make the decisions, but considering we've only picked one QB in the first round in team history (Don't count Dave Wilson), and that was Archie Manning in 1971, I'd say the chances are remote.

The Saints in 1971 are a completely different Saints of now. Different owner, different coaches and I don't think a single employee back in 1971 is with the team now. I think it's just an odd coincidence rather than an institutional philosophy or preference.

I think that within the next three years they'll draft a QB either in the first round or high in the second round. That's unless another Brees like free agent QB lands at their doorstep before they draft one.

Even IF Carr were to play like a future Hall of Famer and the Saints win a Super Bowl with him, I think 3 more seasons is the most that Carr might be with the Saints.
