We'll see - lots of time till the draft.

If you all remember no one loves Parkinson this past off-season and Allen didn't look super promising. So TE was a good choice. Sure CB was on the table and maybe should have been the pick but McVay said he felt good about that room before the draft. Easy to be a Monday morning QB.

Also due to previous drafts we didn't have a ton of holes so players like Hunter and Ferguson had to earn their playing time. After adding Devante, Poona, Shelton and Landman not many spots open to compete for.

Next off-season we will address the cbs but again not many holes and if today the Saints beat Falcons and some other teams win KC, Cincy, and Miami (harder) we will end up at 9th and have our choice of every cb coming out. The draft shakes out with 3 QBs, 3 DEs, 1 OT, 1 RB, 1/2 was and possibly a Safety before we draft.

I assume a top cb will be available in FA. So next off-season we will solve our last needs.

for the record the draft is not an exact science and it is not an easy job I get it but we can still have our opinions.
last year we did have a ton of holes...CB/LB/OL depth and they did nothing to address these positions mentioned IMO
The Ferg pick is growing on me but even if Hig leaves at the end of the year we still have 3 TE's therefore this should not be a position of focus in next year's draft in the higher rounds IMO
IMO they have to address the CB position in FA and in the draft. They also have to address the OL and LB early. Unfortunately Reese and Downs will be gone by the time the Rams pick but I think the CB from LSU will be there who is a stud, forget his name. I also believe Styles, OSU LB, will be available but probably too early to get him there. I do agree with the BPA philosophy but to draft another WR with the ATL pick would be a mistake IMO.

the 2025 draft, while too soon to give it a grade, was mediocre....sorry
2024 draft was excellent.
IF McSnead drafts another fuckin TE I will be pissed..........just sayin

Just because last year's draft didn't result in a rookie having a huge year, doesn't mean it was mediocre or worse. I pretty much NEVER expect a rookie to have a great year. It takes time time (more for some than others) for young guys to adjust to the speed, strength, and conditioning...not to mention learn a new system.
