Saints officially decline fifth-year option for Payton Turner

Should we give the Saints front office a cookie for that obvious decision?

Guess this means he’s due for a 16 sack season

Well, I mean Chase Young is here to save the fricking day.

No worries

Another shite first round bust draft pick by Loomis and Payton braintrust

Funny most knowledgeable posters on here panned the pick as a major reach. He was a third rounder at best. Of course the sunshine pumpers said to trust Loomis and co.

That is what happens when you draft for need. Same with Davenport. Drafting for need at a late slot or with a weak position that year leads to disasters.

Let’s look at his bust of a career so far:

In three seasons he has appeared in 15 TOTAL games (5, 8, 2) for 3 sacks and 29 tackles (20 solo).

Two of his three sacks came against the pathetic Raiders team on 10/30/22. He hasn’t registered a sack since.

Well Fuaga wasn't as much a reach as just possibly not the more EV guy at the slot. We reached on Davenport and Turner (and spent insane capital to get the opportunity to reach on Davenport). I still remember the posi-Saints after that "he was the only DE left and we had to do something"
