Saints met with top QB prospect Cam Ward [Schefter: CLE, NYG or maybe Saints have to make an offer compelling enough for #1 pick]

A trade up for Ward would be CATASTROPHIC if he didn't become the next Mahommes. It would clear out the FO and the coaching staff, everyone gets fired. Loomis could save his job if he married Mrs.B.

The only reason the 9er FO and coaching staff survived the Trey Lance debacle is that they had a pretty good team when they made the trade, and they got very lucky with Purdy.

I like CKM and still believe in Ireland and Loomis. But if a proven HC like Shanahan and a former player like Lynch can make as big of a mistake as Lance, does ANYONE trust this FO and brand new HC to pay what would likely be multiple 1sts and probably 2 2nds and maybe Olave, to get a guy that is the best QB in a BAD QB draft class?
