How many sacks did we miss by .5-1s? That check on the WR gives us that extra time. I am starting to see his value more and more.

The Oak can become the Grasshopper only if he jumps into the knowledge.

I rolled up all the Nnamdi threads into one.

When/if he signs we can start a new Nnamdi is a Saint thread.

Is he what he once was, no. Is he better then Greer and Robinson, he'll yeah! IMO he has 2 or 3 good seasons left in him.

If you're referring to Brent Grimes then I'm all for that. That guy can play. But he's in a similar situation. He had a torn achilles last year. That can be a career ender, and at the very least may have eroded some of his quickness.

So basically Nnamdi and Grimes both have unanswered questions about whether thay are the same player they used to be. And Grimes will be 30 when the season starts, so he's no youngster either.

They have taken a run at 3 or 4 CBs which makes me wonder if our safeties are gonna get a pass for last season or what...... Jenkins is ok, but very tradeable, and Harper if his salary is brought down is the same way.

Even if nnamdi sign with N.O I don't think we are finished with the secondary upgrade..... Or else why would they even look at porter.

I don't know why anyone would complain about us bringing in all the corners that we can. The market is flooded, & they are cheaper than they probably will ever be. We're in a passing league, & the teams that are consistently good have powerhouse offenses and deep secondaries. We're likely just a pass rusher away from being competitive on D anyway. Stop complaining and let Loomis and Payton do what they do best....win.

I'm just elated we were able to sign Keenan Lewis. This defensive front and secondary needs all the help we can get.

Not complaining, just the opposite.... Waiting for the bottom to fall out on roman Harper, hoping trade for Malcolm Jenkins scenarios start poppin up. Just wondering if corner is the only position in the secondary that Payton, loomis blame for last season.
