Odell Thurman??

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; If it's true that he hasn't had any issues recently, I say maybe he is just a kid that needed to grow up. Cincinnati may have done him wrong by releasing him because he didn't show up for mini camp. ...

Well, dudes grandma did die. Kind of a crappy excuse to release him, but I do see the Bengals side that enough is enough. I say take a chance on this guy. He could be a model citizen from here on out. If he is not then send him to the waiver wire immediately. I agree that a minimum salary with incentives would be the way to go. I really do not like the idea of the Saints getting crappy character guys on their team, but maybe this one is worth a chance. At least the only issue with this guy is he likes to get drunk and high. A lot of young people grow out of that.

u have to look at the guys he was around in cincy...almost all of them are scrubs with character issues...if he hangs around them guess what....issues are almost guaranteed.....if he came to new orleans he would be surrounded by class A guys...nobody other than hollis thomas has had a history with bad reps....i think it would be a great fit....if u hang out with scrubs...u become a scrub....if u hang out with classy guys...u become classy....its inevitable that the environment around u tempts u
