There will be MAJOR (good natured of course) trash talking going on in that one! Scott is a motormouth!

Thats too bad. I really liked Fujita. Hope we can draft a replacement or that the guy we got last year can fill in or Casillas maybe.

joey porter would be an ideal replacement. He was released so the final 8 rule doesnt apply to him.

Oh please no. A great team leader like Fujita replaced by a thug?

This is a HUGE loss IMHO. Scott was a great team player and loved the city of New Orleans. I guess it was time but he still has a good 3 years at least as a very solid LB. This changes our draft and I can only pray that Weatherspoon slides. Although, he won't.

I agree this loss sucks, not only for the team but for our city. Scott and his family were very involved. Matter of fact there was a great article today in the Times Picayune about Scott recently taking a big interest in coastal erosion (along w/ his many other involvements), and I believe he donated a percentage of his playoff salary to the efforts to re-build the La. coastline.

Big loss, but the nature of the business I suppose.

Disappointed to see Scott elsewhere, a big leader on the team - good luck to him.

I don't keep up with College football over here so never know the prospects coming through other than reading but what about Will Witherspoon released by the Eagles last week to help out if there are no draft options?

I think Witherspoon would make a nice addition... he seemed to find new life after leaving the Rams. I wouldn't mind bring him in for a look see. None of our OLB's were getting any younger... time to look for more speed and youth. I'm excited to see what we're going to do with the position.

Good luck to Scott... it's just the nature of the business. He was model player here and I'm glad he got a ring with us.

Good luck to him... and thanks Scott for the contributions. Hope he doesn't fall victim to the staff infections that has plagued many a player on the Browns team.

Good Luck Mr. Fujita!
