I will go one step further. Most of them are likely pudgy couch potato weekend warriors. Whining isn't becoming, is the moral to the story.

Thanks Darren. I have the utmost respect for you as a man and as a beast on the NFL turf. You da man. Hope to see you back, but if not good luck in your endeavors.

I sure hope we resign his PRO BOWL arse.

I like Sharper and want him back. He needs to sign and get it over with.

It's about cap friendly numbers...

He's come to town and been nothing short of a hero on defense; while he has limitations due to his age, and Malcolm Jenkins should be the next Free Safety, there is a place for him among the Saints...

Maybe if depth is right, and if the brass still is in denial about Usama Young; maybe we see the end of Harper as a Saint?

I for one am a Sharper FAN... a complete MARK for the guy, but i also understand the business of the NFL and he is a bit long in the tooth. he was a one year fix and did wonders but he had something to prove he was looking for that Last big payday. Our FO willnot fall for that they will pay him his value based on age, ability, durability, and team need. His job was to come here and tutor Jenkins and Harper. He did above and beyond that and kept Jenkins off the field for the most part. But he can not do that long term. I wish him the best for the rest of his career here or else where (As long as it isnt Atlanta)

I too am a Sharper fan, but he won’t get what he’s asking for. With the pick of a CB in the 1st round it only pushes Jenkins for his replacement but not this year. When we lost our corners our back end took a hit and Sharper limitations was exposed (what the Vikes staff stated) which made him look average at best. If Sharper wants to play his best chances are with the Saints so he’ll be back

I think your going to see an open competition among Young, Jenkins, Vaughn, and Harper. May the best two players win.

I don't get the hate at Sharper either but if he thinks he's going to get an over market value contract for the Saints, he's crazy. I hope he comes back but if he doesn't I hope Jenkins and Harper learned all they could from him and hope that Jenkins can fill his spot in the defense

When are you going to get banned for just being a "douchebag"?

im pretty sure we're all in agreement in our appreciation of sharper, or so it seems. who's not liking the guy? i still hold out hope that we can sign him! but, i feel like the deal would've been done already if it was gonna happen, unfortunately.
