Re: saints to pick up some cfl play

Wow... that makes no sense. I guess after the draft, we shouldn't go sign any free agents. With your train of thought, there would have never been a Warren Moon, Doug Flutie, Willie Parker, Pierre Thomas, Marques Colston, Terelle Davis, Jeff Garcia and so on so forth. There's something called depth... not just the starters on offense and defense.

The way you've been thinking ever since the season ended, we'd be wasting our time doing anything except looking at the big name free agent defensive players and the top defensive talent in the draft. I bet if I'd suggest us trade our 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7th round pick to get another late second rounder you'd be all for it. I mean why waste our time scouting for diamond in the roughs when we need top tier talent. Why have a 7 round draft?

Common sense tells us we need to bring in as many players as we can to evaluate in order to fill a 53 man roster. There are players that slip through the cracks when evaluated... and a successful and smart organization are the ones that can find them.

Just off the top of my head for some of the playoff teams... Ryan Grant, Ahmad Bradshaw, Randall Gay, and Asante Samuels. These guys are supposely 2nd, 3rd, 4th tier guys coming out of college.

You are making a big deal out of absolutely nothing... the offseason really must be that boring.

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.

All little common sense goes a long way.
