Re: Nnamdi visiting Saints on Sunday

Because we can't have Greer, Keenan Lewis and Nnamdi on the field at the same time LOL. Come on, it would be a great signing... It's Patrick Robinson that would be riding the pine and that isn't a bad thing.

Im not trying to be disrespectful, but have you ever played corner or safety? Zones can get ridiculously complicated, especially when you haven't had to deal with them in 9 years. I hated playing zone. I hated the checks and balances of it. It didn't allow me to play instinctive. You spend more time thinking then reacting. Its just not suited for everybody.

We're 6.5 million under the salary cap and that could possibly increase if Harper restructures. That's tons of room to sign Nnamdi to a contract that has a low cap hit for the 2013 season. Keenan Lewis was a sought after free agent CB and his cap hit this season is only $1 million. Have faith dude, Greer ain't getting cut.

Yes, I played corner and then moved to safety. Lets just agree to disagree, I think his better days are behind him and not really ready to see Greer go. If they sign Nnamdi I think they will cut Greer for the money, considering they signed Lewis

Still need a left tackle and have money to sign draft picks, and some in reserve just in case of injury. 6.5 is not a lot considering their needs, I would like to see Bigby come in and dump Harper

Joker, if the team is chasing CB's and OLB's I tend to think they fell comfortable (at least for the moment) with what they have at LT.

I'd love to see NA reunited with Ryan. Pass on Ed Reed.

Haven't we had this conversation already, tell me who will play LT and I will let it go and apologize but from my vantage point I see no one on the roster that can keep the 100 million dollar QB safe. Please don't give me the QB can makeup for the LT lack of ability.
