That is exactly what I was thinking. Sometimes it's the value per dollar that you are looking at and that leads to disappointment. I wish him well.....although I don't think he will stay healthy long enough to do well.

I am looking for good things from Sproles.:bng:

Sounds like it was time for a change for both us and the Bolts.

He doesn't mean any harm. Let's face it, Sproles really wasn't worth 6 million a season. I'm very curious how many touches we're even going to give him here. If Ingram takes off and PT is fully healthy... mix in some Ivory, where does that leave Sproles?

That said, I'm confident that in the touches he will receive, he's going to make of it than Bush did with his.

Im excited about Sproles. Screen pass here we come!!

poydras 08-01-2011 02:52 PM

No matter. They didn't bring him here to carry the team. He might not even make it. We just needed someone to do some of the same things that Reggie did so we don't have to reprint the playbook.

Good things I see about this signing...
a.) Ever since that season ending injury in 2006, he's been healthy.
b.) He's worked with Brees.
c.) He'll be running routes similar to the ones he did here.

Anybody know how much of that money is guaranteed?

LOL yes we'd finally hopefully be able to work in a screen pass for a change geez!!!

I don't think we had a good one in like ever.

Yeah, it was 15 if you count the partial games he left injured on. :)

For a non-Saints fan he is the least offensive that I have seen.

:p

I can't say that, I once met a Kansas City Chiefs fan that I didn't want to punch in the face.

Sproles has no issues either, stand up guy. Bush on the otherhand, lawsuits, returning awards, fake celebrity girlfriend, dumb tweet/comments. He was always dealing with some issue that he created.

Thanks for the info, Bolts.

Last time someone came here from another team and gave us the skinny on a player we aquired, it was Bills fans telling us about Jabari Greer. (they loved him)

I think its a good sign.
