The corpse of Julius Jones, LOL. He actually wasn't bad considering the circumstances but he didn't know the offense and blitz pickups. At least with Cadet you have somebody who knows the system. Not saying he can't be improved on, but wow. We sure do have a ton of injuries at RB it seems like every year.

Just don't be jumping on the bandwagon and saying everything's peachy next year when things are going better.

The overreaction to one bad season on this board would be hilarious, if I had a higher tolerance for complete and total stupidity.

Not sure what im over reacting to. Stating my opinion that we should not be resigning Cadet. Feel free to disagree.

Your success is usually determined by the weakest link in the chain. You'll hear coaches talk about the bottom 3 on the roster being very important. Keep your expectations low though I guess it works well for you, but while Drew is around I think we should avoid blowing opportunities.

Lastly, ill do whatever I want your nobody to tell me ****! Im always on the Saints, and I put my money where my mouth is every year.

100% agree with you. That's why we shouldn't resign him. How comfortable do you feel if he is the main back and fumbles once every 20 touches?

Seems like right now, all you can do is bash them for every single little thing under the sun. Intelligent, level-headed thoughts on the Saints from this board are few and far between these days. This is a perfect example of why.

I don't thinks so.

This is by far the best saints forum you'll find. Most coversaions are full of good debate and usually free of insults. Most people on this board are able to disagree with each other respectfully. However, maybe you're the exception. When you resort to insults to win an argument you've already lost it, and yes you did start this conversation that way. I don't think it's necessary to insult everyone because you disagree. Feel free to ignore me if you don't enjoy debating things.

I feel comfortable, a very versatile cheap player who can play back, receiver, and ST's and being thrown to the wolves because he has three fumbles in three years... Maybe you would feel more comfortable paying starter money for a 4th on the depth chart running back? That would eliminate the fumbles...

No, I wouldn't pay starter money for a 4th RB, but I get where you are coming from.

The most important thing for a RB to do is not fumble. We saw Ivory pass him on the depth chart because of his fumbling in the pre-season. With all of the cheap talent available he shouldn't be resigned. The only positive he has going for him is knowledge of the offense.

Who's to say that the cheap talent would fumble any less?

I did NOT start this conversation that way, but you seemed determine to head down that road with your absolutely ridiculous strawman scenarios and outright fabrications. Maybe you are the one who should take a good hard look at yourself and realize that your "opinions" aren't all they are cracked up to be.
