Question for Saints Fans...

FootballCEO · 03-21-2010, 10:01 PM

Too many times, the media always focuses on the big names of any franchise, and there are many players that have played that were Pretty Damn Good in their own right.. So the question is:

Who is a former Saints player that you want fans of other teams to know about?

I plan to do a show called "The Hall of Very Good" which will include a team by team pick of "Who You Should Know About"

Good choice, D_it_up. From that same era, I'd say Hobby Brenner. When I think of Saints tight ends, that's always who I think of first.

And then, Dalton Hilliard. He was overshadowed by Ruben Mayes early on in his career, and Injuries later, and he still held the Saints record for touchdowns for more than a decade until Deuce broke that one.

Thanks, 21. I loved that guy. He wasn't the flashiest or the fastest, but that guy could catch the kitchen sink if the ball was thrown in his direction. He was a really underrated as a receiver and still ranks as my favorite wideout the Saints have ever had.

Chuck Muncie is well known as a Charger.

D_it_up has a really good suggestion in Moe.

Unfortunately, I can only think of about a million. How far do you want to go back. Here's a name from the past that just popped into my head...

Joe Feiderspeil (sp?)

And tough too. Many of his catches ended up going across the middle.

Kyle Turley (I guess the Jets fans already know about him.)

Tony "can you take a check" Elliott.

I'm glad the Bears found out about Josh Bullocks.
