2022 NFL Team Draft Page

What a difference a week makes! In Week 1 the Saints destroyed the favored Packers (-3.5) and Jameis Winston was heralded as fixed, annointed the Saints QBofthefuture, and the league's next star. Alas, we saw totally the opposite in Week 2; a total offensive collapse with just 128 total yards and a really awful outing for Winston (11-22-111-0TD-2INT). Had Drafttek put out a mock draft following Week 1 a QB would have been considered off the table. Just 7 days later and that 2022 RD1 QB is back front-and-center, with some quality outside receiving help not far behind.

The 2022 QB crop at this point does not appear to possess the top-end surefire franchise talent that the 2021 group featured, yet here we are with Drafttek projecting 6 QBs for RD1. The Saints gett Cincinnati Bearcat signal caller Desmond Ridder. It's truly an evolving group, Spencer Rattler still maintains a tenuous hold on the top-QB-off-the-board, though we wonder if his newfound endorsement riches and lame brand logo are going to his head and soiling his play in 2021. Another pre-season favorite son, Kedon Slovis, is doing the best he can in the midst of mid-season coach-change chaos at USC. We wonder if Slovis will find his way thru the transfer portal to more friendly environs next season, to be ready for the 2023 draft. Meanwhile, a collection of pre-season nobodies are surging up the board with stellar early-season performances. Could Matt Corral, Brennan Armstrong or Jake Haener find their way to the Big Easy? Or will Jameis WInston get back on track and be the Saints long-term answer? Stayed tuned!
