Stallworth
Hater 1: I heard Stallworth was going to be traded to Dallas.
Hater 2: I heard Minny! Hater 3: Maybe we could dump him on San Diego!! Hater 4: I thought we were trading him to Tennessee for their mascot!! Everybody ready? Stallworth should be a Saint. Odds are, he will be a Saint this season. Moreover, I'm willing to take bets right now that, if a Saint (and healthy), he leads the team in all major receiving categories for the second straight year. Any takers? |

What's up, WhoDat...Long time, brudda....
I'm content with Stallworth...He stepped up his game last year when there was nothing to smile about...Filled in nicely for Horn while he was injured...If the Saints trade him, they better get equal value...If they don't, then the Saints should still have the potential for one of the most explosive offenses in the league... |

I think we'll have a tough time moving Donte now. Any team taking him on will be prone to losing him in FA next year. Which means they're only getting a rental player for this year - unless they want to sign him to a new contract after the trade and essentially make him the top WR they want to build around. Very few teams would be willing to do that at this time of year. There may be a few teams that probably should do it (Atlanta, Green Bay, Jax) but I doubt they'll give us enough in return to make it worth their while. But we'll see.
If I'm not mistaken, we can slap the franchise tagto keep him from becoming an FA next year. Just something to consider ... |

Yeah when Horn was gone, he's #1 but not the most consistent player we really need, but he defintely can contribute now that we have Brees instead of No-Brain Brooks

i definitely think that when healthy, stallworth is a great threat for our offense... however, for whatever reason this offseason has been difficult... whether he doesn't get along with payton or whatever, he better get over it real quick... he's in a contract year, which the saints could (and should) reward him with a nice contract next offseason.... he's done a good job the last 2 years for us and i hope he's around to make it 3 years....

I will take that bet WhoDat. Only reason he got his yards last season is because Horn was injured. Barring injury Horn will be the same ol Horn. I don't see anything that would suggest that Stallworth will make a monumental leap over a healthy Horn.
