Saints cut ties with Deuce(APRIL FOOLS JOKE)
 
NEW ORLEANS -- Two-time Pro Bowl runningback Deuce McAllister was released by the New Orleans Saints Tuesday morning.

The Saints decided to part ways with McAllister after he failed a physical on March 29th. McAllister, 29, is recovering from surgery on both of his knees in late September. The two sides had previously agreed to push back a $1 million roster bonus from March 15 to April 15 to give the team a better chance to gauge his health before making any financial decisions, but the Saints finally decided to part ways with the oft-injured runningback from Mississippi.

"Deuce did a really good job for us in past years," Saints coach Sean Payton said in a statement. "But we are excited about the young runningbacks that have developed over the last year. We wish Deuce all the best. He's a true team player on and off the field."

Saints General Manager Mickey Loomis declined to expand on the decision.

So this begs the question..............WHO DO WE DRAFT!!!!!!!!! Oh Boy Oh Boy could we trade up for Mcfadden? Or down for Mehndenhall? I assure you Payton will draft skill in the first round so this will be intresting, because he likes to pick BPA, and not need most of the time.
