The Pa(y)ton’s are getting along well!

Spoiler!

“I think Sean and I are aligned and a lot alike,’’ George Paton said. “Sean’s unique for a head coach in this league. He’ll sit in a personnel meeting all day. He knows exactly what he wants from his football team. He loves watching tape. He loves talking football players."

“I enjoyed it. I know the scouts enjoyed it. I've said this before, he speaks like our scouts. He’s been around some great mentors. So it was a lot of fun. It was fun for me. We grinded it. Days went quick. They were long, but they went quick.’’

On the Riley Moss trade:

Spoiler!

“We thought that was the heart of the draft where those three picks went where we could make hay,’’ Paton said. “The first two picks kind of fell our way and then we were watching Riley. We were like, “How are we going to get Riley?” You hate giving up future. Especially a future three. But we had most of our picks next year. We just felt we needed to go get him.”

More on Riley Moss: “He was the last corner (available) we really had conviction with.”

Trade-ups? 📈 Not just a Sean Payton thing.
