Let that sink in...Mike Brown gave up another teams draft for Akili Smith.
One more time...MIKE BROWN gave up another teams draft for AKILI SMITH.
Joe Burrow is 1000 times the prospect than Akili Smith...Mike Brown is not going to pass up this opportunity.
Yeah, that deal wasn't as good as most people seem to remember. The Saints didn't even have picks in some of the early rounds, so it was mostly moving down in round 1 in exchange for picking up a bunch of mid and late round picks who likely wouldn't have even made the the team due to the high numbers of rookies you would've had.
The problem was not that they turned down the deal. The problem was their evaluation that Akili would be a franchise QB
