Should the Saints draft QB Shedeur Sanders if he falls to #9?

He was our third string QB in 2009, his rookie year. Never saw the field though. 😂
Brunell was the primary backup and Daniel was 3rd string. Brunell started the week 17 game against the Panthers and Daniel played the 2nd half. Drew was dressed out only as the emergency 3rd QB.
 
I'm sure this will either be met with both, “I knew Sanders was terrible so Moore doesn't like him” or “this is a smokescreen” but:

 
Color me shocked. If you watch the KU and Kstate game, then the others you see something that looks extremely odd with the play calling in passing in 2nd halfs. It was super weird (Nebraska and BYU were the two exceptions). Almost as if the play calling was designed to pad Sanders stats instead of win the game. Everything became super short play calling while defenses were playing mid to high to prevent a comeback. Then you see the same thing occur even in the games they won. Two games it looked like they were trying to win offensively going mid and high from behind? Nebraska and BYU. It's a trend I can't ignore. You can say its an accidental trend, or you can say it was intentional for xxx reason, or you can say it was on purpose to pad stats. But its a trend none the less.

I really wish I had the time to go back and watch all the offensive film from the season again in game order. I'm going off memory and I typically watch 10+ teams regularly and about half a dozen different games every week.

This makes me wonder how much money a website would make if it offered offensive or defensive snap film on players/teams for a subscription. A think a company formed a website to do that and got sued by the NCAA and had to close down the website.

The data contained in this video seems to indicate otherwise. Not saying you’re wrong, but I’d like to hear your commentary on this info and see if it changes your opinion.

There’s been some theories out there. It could mean absolutely nothing but it’s certainly still worth acknowledging that it’s odd behavior given what we’ve seen thus far.

Could mean they’ve seen all they need to see from him, and that could be read as good or bad.

Could mean that they already have “Their guy” identified and have a confident path to acquiring him.

Could mean they love him and want to play coy.

Could mean Kellen Moore is under the weather and exhausted and suddenly needs to take it easy after a long travel schedule.

Could also possibly signal that we are suddenly out of the early round QB business.

Who knows.

Probably referring to what Orlovsky says here.



Now, I don’t think it’s designed to “pad his stats.” I think it’s bc their OL was awful and they needed to generate quick, safe offense more than a lot of teams.

But it does make it difficult to evaluate. The main issues with Shedeur don’t deal with what he “can’t” do. But what he hasn’t (yet?) shown he can do consistently.

Agreed. It can be taken many ways so in the end it really means nothing.

I would find it interesting if it turns out that they went to dinner with the other QBs but did not go to dinner with Sanders, but that too might just be to hide interest or because they went but it wasn't reported.
 
dont know why anyone would draft deion because thats who is going to be in the media trashing your coach and org if and when it doesn't work out.

Does it really matter? If it doesn't work out, our own fans will be the ones on social media trashing our coach and talking about how right Deion is.

But, if it does work out, we will have a person in the national spotlight singing our praises. And as much as I'm not a fan of Deion, he does know ball so what he says is likely to be true.
