Pickett at 16? (1 Viewer)

[Nightshade]

I'm seeing him mocked to us at 16 more and more with Willis at 20 to the Steelers. From a value standpoint that looks right on both of them.

If tye Saints take Pickett at 16 what is the thoughts of my fellow Saints fans on that?

Personally I hope we don't.

I don't have an issue with it. Just don't move up for him.

I'd be bummed. I think we're set for the next couple years well enough with Winston/Dalton/Hill and Book on the PS.

I haven't researched QB's much this draft, but from what I've read, the only one potentially worth a 1st rounder is Willis. And he's a wildcard.

I'd save that pick for a guaranteed stud.

I'd be bummed, cos I haven't seen much that makes me think Pickett isn't close to his ceiling already.

There are no guaranteed studs.

Why would the Saints draft a rookie QB who isn't ready when they told us they're in win-now mode and have kept the same coaching staff, re-signed Winston and made no big moves in FA?

 

[Booker]

I know it shouldn't matter, but taking a quarterback with "Pick" in his last name feels like bad juju to me. ("Pick it! Pick it! Pick it!")

Why draft him at 16 and not 19... Seems like these mocks are designed to help get their favorite prospect to fall to their favorite team.

 

[Infoman]

If they think he's the future of this Franchise... I am good with the pick... We need a plan at QB for the next decade (or just beyond this year would be nice)...

Edit: The reason you take him at 16 (If you think he's "The Guy") is so some team like the Steelers don't jump up to 17 and take him before you can at 19.

strongly disagree. while i dont think we "should" draft a qb this year based off what i've read about the qbs coming out, winston will hopefully be good enough for a year, and hopefully more. still, coming off an ACL, and thru 7 games he didnt show enough to me to say we're good with him for long term.

dalton at backup is decent. not great, not terrible. hopefully he wont see the field. but they need a veteran backup going into TC this year.

hill is supposedly practicing at TE and not QB this season.

Taysom Hill won’t be spending much time under center next year.

book should be the #3 for this season.

theyll probably sign an UDFA or a FA qb before TC, need at least 4 to take all the reps.

I'd welcome the pick.

I'd welcome the pick.

Yeah, but you'd welcome them taking any QB with any pick. I bet you'd welcome it if they drafted Book again.
