Ep. 182 | What if any Louisiana-born NFL star (past or present) could be a Saint? We make our picks!

The Saints signing of Travis E'tienne reminded us of the wealth of quality NFL players, both past and present, from our home state of Louisiana. It also got us thinking how many stars and NFL Hall of Famers, including many from New Orleans, reached their heights for other teams.

This begged the question: What players from Louisiana could have most helped the Saints if they had played for us instead of elsewhere?

We each picked one offensive and one defensive player from the past who we thought answered this question - with ONE CAVEAT - the player you pick would replace whoever the Saints had starting at that position at that time/during the years the selected player was in the league.

So, obviously Peyton Manning stands out, BUT picking him in this exercise means no Brees Era for the years that Peyton played. Would any of us DARE go there??? We also do the same exercise with current players. Definitely a fun/state-prideful/though-provoking episode.

TUNE IN! WHO DAT?!
