re: What do you prefer in the draft?

I would not mind giving Estime a real chance at RB1 to start the season IF we upgrade OL.
It's better to get a 2nd free agent OG to start > spending $8-$12mil on Etienne/ Hall. Just spend $15mil for another good OL and give cheap RB's a shot at that point.
First 2 games starting:
Quinshon Judkins- 28att/ 155yds/ 1 TD
Austin Estime- 35att/ 157yds/ 1 TD
Browns have a slightly better run OL.
This year: (AK probably had a better OL too)
AK: 131att/ 471yds
Estime: 46att/ 198yds

I think they are linear. It just so happens that we are finding billions/ trillions in fraud and now Trump says 20% extra interest isn't necessary? If they still make enough profits on 10% then I'm willing to bet the banks are corrupted with outside influence and that's where a big chunk of that extra money is currently going. Seems like a direct correlation to the corruption and fraud from my point of view.

If you get Downs then you can trade Reid @9mil and re-sign Blackmon for cheap.
Reese/ Tate/ Downs/ Bain/ Bailey Probably in that order. Assuming we haven't already decided on OL.

To each their own, my In-laws have owned Genesis/Hyundai for their last 3 cars/SUVs. They have come a long way but they are not up to Lexus/Mercedes quality of the cars I have personally owned. All 3 of their cars have had issues, but does have a 10yr warranty, thankfully.
Thank you for an honest and fair opinion. Lexus/ Mercedes have an edge in quality but is it worth a 10k-20k difference or more? The gap is closing and they have come a long way.

This is pretty much the thread. Most people who shite on modern Kia/ Hyundai made up their opinion 20 years ago and haven't touched once since or if ever.
I would get a Genesis > other brands like BMW, Mercedes, etc. Maintenance/ parts will still come out cheaper and the quality is just as good.

I see them on “cars poor people buy because they want to appear rich” lists all the time.
Seriously
I assume you drive a Ford/ Chevy? There's alot more "poor" people buying trucks to appear rich than a Genesis. Old Lexus/ BMW are killing it in that market. Poor people who want to act rich by old BMWs/ Lexus. The group you are refrencing is called the middle class.
I know people who bought a BMW/ Lexus for double the price of a Hyundai/ Kia and they usually seem disappointed when they realize how much extra they paid for similar quality.
re: How do y’all feel about Ja’Lynn Polk for next season? WR

Yeah you’re WAY too worked up over this man. Want me to change it to WR4 so you can stop hemorrhaging all over?
I may have a little pep to my defense of him but its fair. To form such opinions after seeing the general consensus for Vele vs his actual impact seems ridiculous. He is considered more talented by a wide margin so it's weird for expectations and opinions to be this low. Recent history would tell us to hold off on any opinion until he's on the field. Setting his ceiling around WR5 without a snap played is the furthest thing from that. Everyone said the exact same thing about Vele in regards to being out of the WR rotation and he wasn't anything close to as talented from NFL scouts perspective.
Even if he ends up being the overrated 2nd rd pick that can't put it together he could STILL end up being our #3-4 currently. You could be pessimistic and still view him as a #3-#4 so yes capping him at #5 right now is excessive, that still stands.
Thinking that we will have 4 WR's better than Polk to start the year is insanely optimistic compared to simply thinking Polk has the potential to be a #3-#4.

Not only is Polk not our #3 WR his making the 53 is not a sure thing. If he had been a 1st rounder sure but we gave a 6.5 round pick for him.
Who is above him beyond Vele/ Olave?

His stats for the Saints:
0 anything.
So comparable to 7th rd talent Vele?

Loads of potential though and hopefully whatever was wrong will be fixed
The crazy thing is that most fans couldn't even make this argument or say this nice of a thing about Vele and he's currently our #2. But yet Polk is a lost cause. There was a WR example THIS YEAR that most were wrong about and he's currently our #2. These opinions about Polk make absolutely no sense as of now.
The people who were wrong about the 7th rd WR are going to argue that the 2nd rd WR has a lower ceiling with even less of a sample size. Hahaha. Make it make sense.

especially when you factor in they have an MVP candidate for QB who can clearly make all the throws.
I forgot that Polk played with an MVP candidate on the team that went 4-13. Polk never played with an MVP candidate which makes these opinions ridiculous. The Pats were a shite show in 2024.
quote:
But you seem to feel like I personally affronted the guy for some reason even referring to my initial post
You set his ceiling as our #5 WR when he is currently #3. How do I take that as anything more than pessimistic? If we don't add a big vet then it will be Olave WR1 followed by Vele/ Polk/ Draft #2-4. As of right now he can be anywhere from #2-#4 and a "ceiling of #5WR" sounds like an excessive comment. The pessimism is thinking that Polk ending up #3WR means our WR core is also shite instead of thinking he has potential to be WR3. In your head Polk as #3WR = something going wrong and not Polk playing well.
Again, Vele was a 7th rd pick with 55 targets and most couldn't evaluate him or imagine he would currently be our #2. So I'm going to give the 2nd rd talent with 33 targets a chance.

If he sticks as the 5th wr
"Pats had very little at WR and traded him" seems like a blatant "he was the worst of the worst" comment. Followed by "if he sticks as a 5th round". Completely ignoring that they have some of the highest TE/ RB passing usage in the NFL along with adding Stefon Diggs.
You said he was the worst WR in a very bad WR room and then doubled down by saying "hopefully he can stick as a 5th WR" which is a bubble roster spot and probably not getting minutes. Hopefully he can make the roster? That's not pessimistic?
In reality he is currently our #3 behind Vele and could end up #2 in production depending on how he's used.
Capping him at a 5th WR ceiling as a 2nd rd pick who only had 33 targets in his career is WILD. Sure he could end up #5 WR and he could also end up #2 or #3. The comment and thought behind it was definitely pessimistic.

They can only solve the issue quickly if they first identity the issue quickly. It doesn't sound great considering its been 8 hours and they are still trying to "identify" the issue.

I see the Saints really like Love but are willing to trade back 1 spot with KC. Its best case scenario. We get extra compensation and still get the guy we want at #8 who isn't Love. The Saints just have to convince KC they want him that bad. This is a good start.

I don't like the government getting involved in private businesses.
At face value I agree. But are banks on the same level as other private businesses? Private banks have private investors and private investors could be overreaching for control. There may be more going on behind the scenes.
If George Soros or Chinese investors have interest and control of these banks behind the scenes it changes things.
This could be another attack on fraud. How much of that interest going from citizens to "private" investors is going back into funding corruption?
Could be wrong but its food for thought.

Anything that fricks with credit scores or limits its impact is good with me. I think this is a step towards dealing with the scam that is the "credit score".
re: Capping credit card rates is going to have unintended consequences
Posted by Dantheman504 on 1/13/26 at 2:07 pm to The1TrueTiger
The only solution is to require a 10% card option while still having access available to better options. Private healthcare meets CC's. This way you can have a standard where your "credit score" isn't a dead end but will limit you to the better options with higher limits and less fees.
