I remember watching this draft with my Panthers fan buddy. And when the Saints traded up to 14, he was so mad b/c it was clear that the Saints were going to grab Lamar. Then, when they instead grabbed a DE with single-digit sacks from UT San Antonio he flat out belly laughed in my face.
Lamar has become Lamar. And Davenport is a very talented but always injured player.
31 teams had a chance to grab Lamar and didn't. And I suspect most fanbases regret it in hindsight. But I will say that it isn't just hindsight with the Saints. I distinctly remember being totally convinced that the Saints were going to grab him--and being super psyched by the possibility.
