Black and Gold B.S. #21 – The Saints’ Draft was NOT B.S.
Lifelong friends and self-professed New Orleans Saints nerds Jacob Krasnow, Sean Haspel and Allison Pratt ~tchoup~ it up, exploring the joys and sorrows that come with the fandom of their favorite football team. In episode twenty-one of this bonus podcast from Boot Krewe Media, they discuss the Saints’ first round picks; how the team should round out the roster with the remaining veteran free agents; and revel in the glorious names (literally, just their names) comprising the 2022 UDFA class.
Time codes:
1:09 – General thoughts on the draft (we were right about everything!); Chris Olave is a perfect fit
8:50 – Trevor Penning is a controversial pick at 19
24:46 – The Saints killed the first round and the rest is window dressing; drafting Alontae Taylor and potentially signing Tyrann Mathieu would give the Saints maximum defensive flexibility
38:23 – The Jackson Twins (D’Marco and Jordan); the UDFA class has some all-time names
47:14 – How should the Saints round out the roster? With a bunch of former LSU Tigers, that’s how
52:37 – There’s no questioning Jameis’ status as QB1 for 2022
