Saints | Team not trading Stallworth
Fri, 16 Jun 2006 09:39:44 -0700

While on "The Afternoon Blitz" on Sirius NFL Radio Wednesday, June 14, New Orleans Saints general manager Mickey Loomis said the team is not looking to trade WR Donte' Stallworth. Loomis added, "I've seen some of those rumors. Most of it is unfounded. I've gotten a couple of calls, I think as a result of the rumors more than anything else. But we're not looking to trade Donte' Stallworth. He's an integral part of our team and we're expecting a big year from him."

Hard to hang your hat on admission or denial on that one, it seems.

Stallworth doesn't have the work ethic or mindset to become an elite NFL WR.

We'll have to see what he does this year. I'd rather have him there than some untested rookie or FA.

I don't mind him getting the chance to play with a real QB, but he's walking on thin ice with this new staff and doesn't seem to be too committed to solidifying his standing with the Saints.

What really bugged me was him being on the news after getting benched saying that he knew how Payton wanted things from day 1, and yet he still was late. I just don't think he's going to put the effort in that the top WR's put in.

As much as I support Stallworth, that last bit may be true. He might not be willing to put in the work needed to be a #1. I don't know him personally, so I don't know if he does or doesn't. But the fact he seems to have an attitude and can't get it together to be on time is bumming me out.

I dunno how your Judging him, but to me it seemed he did a great job as the number one reciver last year when horn went done. And to add to hit he was the ONLY reciever.....

all I read here is "We are not going to give him away"
Same with Bennett. Nothing less than 4 because holding on to them wont hurt us. much

No knock on Donte, but let's send him to the Chargers for Donnie Edwards.
