I would love for Alleman to take someones job on this team, or at least challenge them all. It's so easy to get complacent after a year of success and fresh talented, hungry rookies can make the team better by competition. He just might be real good! There's never a day gone by without some kind of drama. It serves to fire people up. As long as he can back up his word because he will be put in his place if he overestimated his ability.

If those are really his quotes then I am saying "HELL YEAH! This guy has passion and FIRE! I love him."

"I'm not a huge Alleman fan as is and of course, that's just my opinion. There was a scouting report out there (I read it awhile back but can't locate it) that said that Alleman had a bit of an attitude problem and thinks he's better than he really is."

I've been meaning to reply to this for some time but have had no opporitunity to do so. Now it's old news so it doesn't matter I suppose but that scouting report was from one of the pre-draft magazines that I had purchased which was either ProFootballWeekly or Lindy's. It raised flags with me also as I read it immediately after the Alleman pick and was questioning the F.O. for it and wondering who the heck this guy was.
I hope that Allemans comments are more of a positive underachiever statement than cockiness but from Bobaganoosh's reporting it would seem to be the latter.

That said, it sounds like Alleman has been performing well in rookie performances according to Coach Payton.

Opptimism is high, the waiting period is long and it hasn't felt this good being a Saints fan in a long time.

What is so bad about a young, aggressive,mean lineman?Any running back or quarterback in the league wants a guy like Turley in front of them.Even Brett Favre has said things he realized he shouldn't have said.Give the rookie a chance to get his foot out of his mouth.

When you speak of being loyal, don't forget coachs and schools. coachs recruit with big promises and leave for more money or get fired by unhappy allumni.even down to high school ball.i've even seen parents move to get in certain programs or get a job given to them to move to an area.let's judge performance

High school who cares. he was 17 or 18 at the time. If you have a problem with it talk to his parents. They had the final say in it. Get real

College he switched for playing time and new position. Seems to have been a smart move. If he stayed put he would have stayed on the defensive side of the ball and not gotten drafted probably. If he did this as buisness move yall would respect the kid more. Oh yeah this is a buisness. Hats of to the kid. Smart move. Just made a few million more than if he would haved stayed.
