Saints haven't drafted a QB in the first round in the last 50 years (1 Viewer)

[Saint Kamara]

Longest current streak in the NFL, 17 years more than the second longest streak.

Does the streak end in 2022?

I believe it does.

 

[Taker597]

Well... They better not win another game or they'll trading away an extra 1st to do it.

There won't be many 1st round graded QBs in the '22 draft.

With this draft class, I hope the streak continues to 51.

This may be the year. This class may not be as hyped as previous drafts, but a lot of these dudes fit our O to the letter.

What they may lack athletically, they more than make up for w/intangibles IQ, release, decision making, field vision & ball protection. Pickett, Howell, even Corral & Strong fit that bill, especially in the mid/late teens & 20s.

I personally think Bailey Zappe, in particular, will fly up boards as the process moves forward & will ultimately garner late 1st RD consideration come draft weekend. Not a fan of Willis & Ridder, though. The athleticism is great, but everything else is crazy suspect, especially in terms of IQ, decision making & field vision.

God willing it'll go to 51

I'll be pretty livid if we take a QB. That means you burned a pick on Ian Book for no reason. Should see what the kid can do before you go burning another pick on a QB, especially in this weak class. If Book isn't in your future plans in the next few years, you go get a rental in the offseason if Winston isn't your guy to begin with.

I'm no Mel Kiper but I don't think the magic bullet is in this class.

At this point N.O is picking fairly low in the draft. Whatever good prospect there might be at QB willl be drafted. Saints need to hit on as many offensive skill position players as possible in this draft

 

[NOFALCONS10]

If they re-sign Winston I doubt they pick a QB at all.

There isn't a Qb in this draft that is better or even close to Winston in talent.

Tell that to Arizona re. Rosen/Murray.

I think Arizona got a chance to see what they had in Rosen and with the new coaching staff opted for Murray. The fact they had the #1 pick factored in there as well. IDK if them picking Book will factor into whether they pick a QB round 1 or not in '22 but tonight I will be having Fish Tacoes for dinner with a creamy adobo sauced slaw.

we did in the supplemental draft--Dave Wilson---but that was ages ago also

 

[guidomerkinsrules]

but, but, but… we have Ian Book??

I can live in another year of QB purgatory. Lets get a ton of receiver help so that our first round QB thrives in 2023.
