Hey guys...just going off of some things I've heard in the Atl over the last couple of years.
Scott is the cousin of the 2 live stews, a radio show here in Atlanta. So, they have had him on alot over the last 2 years. Last year, he was an up and comer and they were having him on alot. They were talking future pro bowler and stuff. (I was just fuming that this guy came out of nowhere and was becoming a playmaker for my least favorite team.) In '05, he essentially vanished in a pretty thin secondary (minus D Hall) He spent alot less time on the radio this past year I don't know that this is as much a "starter" move as it is a depth move. He could be viewed as our third safety or some of the other speculation could be correct...D Smith to corner. To me, the bigger part of this is unloading an overpriced turd from our o line. Next time you see Gandy holding, it will cost the Falcons yardage. The only problem is that he won't be on Vick's blindside. I like the move. A safety with some potential who we shouldn't get overly excited about. Bye, bye Gandy. And maybe....hello Brick? This has been the smartest offseason in recent memory. |

Hmmm i like the move i think Stincomb would have gave gandy a run for his money last year but he got injured...... Soo we have another S and hopefully a 3rd round draft pick! It a pretty good trade.......... And Mike&Dwight at CB yyeeeeeeeeeaaaaaahhh booooyy !!!

O, and another thing to think about:
The Falcons this week had come very close to deals with Brad Hopkins, Torrin Tucker, and Todd Steussie. Now that they have Gandy, to replace Shaeffer, do they really need to get any of these guys? Maybe the Saints, especially with Payton and Gibbs coming from Dallas, will make a run at a guy they've been working with in Dallas the last few seasons. I don't know, just something for ya, put it in your mouth, chew it, its delicious... |

Interesting observation Duece on the dallas connection. If gandy was cheeper I'd keep him for the opionions noted above but for his cost, not as a backup.

I highly doubt anyone on here feels I have any trouble speaking my mind and being convicted about it. I can't be held responsible if someone doesn't have the mental capacity to weed out sarcasm when they see it.

IMO- This is a very strange move. Trading a starting LT to a division rival for a backup secondary player? Maybe moving Brown to LT or hope that Stinchcomb is recovered after ACL injury? Very interesting move, no idea what to make of this. IMO Gandy was probably has another season or two left. Does that mean the Saints are now drafting Brick? We'll see...
