Had no idea who he was ... and was drafted by the Saints

Anyways, when does training camp start again ?

In all fairness, he was a forgettable pick.

New Orleans 2003 Draft picks

Rd 1 Jonathan Sullivan

Rd 2 Jon Stinchcomb
Rd 3 Cie Grant
Rd 4 Montrae Holland
Rd 5 Melvin Williams
Rd 6 Kareem Kelly
Rd 7 Talman Gardner

To be fair, outside of Stinchcomb that entire 03 draft was straight trash can material

Rumor has it, Haslett had his kids input on most of those picks

I kid, I kid.

If one wrote a book on exactly how to eff up a draft, this list would come close to a perfect example.

I guess that's when they began to learn the lesson to not wait on whatever falls to your slot, but to identify exactly who you want and go get them whatever it takes. Loomis and Ireland in their combined brilliance have perfected the model.

We traded two mid first rounders to move up for Jonathan Sullivan. There’s your perfection.

But, for some reason that name stuck with me. Maybe he's the only Cie out there.
