Notas del episodio
So, less than an hour after we finished recording our last episode, the Saints announced the signing of Chase Young to his three-year deal - such is life sometimes for podcasters like us during an active period like NFL Free Agency. BUT, of course, the Saints continued to sign guys since then, some completely new, some old, and some "old" as in familiar in a reunion with the Black & Gold. We get into all the Saints recent action in FA signings, restructures, paycuts for fan-favorites and debate whether we like all the moves and if the team is now in position to go BPA in the draft or do we still need to do more before the draft to get there?
Plus, the buzz around the Saints interest in Cam Ward, the presumed No. 1 pick in the draft, has gotten surprising high in recent days. We've broken down in a previous episode the pitfalls of trading up to get a QB in the first round. Does our previous conclusion - that it's "always" a bad idea - apply to the the Saints possibly trading up for a much-needed future starter like Ward or would trade up now be an exception to our established rule - given our need for a young QB1 of the future? TUNE IN to find out!
