Shawn Merriman

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Well, the last time we bought low and traded for a LB it sure worked out (Vilma). Saints would need to be convinced that he would not cause issues off-the-field or in the locker room....

Your bowl of cereal tells you a lot of nonsense. Where did Cody land again?

cody landed on the best defense in the league.....i think they know a little something about defense at least

my bowl of cereal is pretty accurate.....of course it only allows me to spell names with the letters i have available

By any measure you want to look at Baltimore was the 3rd best Defense in the league last year. Wrong again. Keep trying though. Your getting better.

lol statistically they were 3rd......but you know exactly what i meant

the ravens have continued to put a dominant defense on the field over the past decade.....even without their defensive coordinator they continue to produce

they know exactly what they are doing when they draft defense and they know who they are getting

they've done it very well and have become one of the best, if not the best expansion team to ever join the league in such a short amount of time because of their ability to evaluate talent

am i bummed we didnt get cody....sure.....but i knew we wouldnt take him

am i happy for him that he went to one of the best defenses EVER? yea

Yeah cheater. I know this english thing is new to you, so I'll explain what cheater means. He got busted for taking banned substances. Not adderal like Hartley did, but STEROIDS. That's cheating. He got a 4-game suspension for it.

This guy is not worth the trouble. When he was juicing he was a sack machine, he had 17 the year he got busted. Since then, with no steroids, he had 12.5 in 2007, 0 in 2008, and 4 in 2009.

He also has a slew of injury problems over the last few years and his production has plummeted.

Add on top of that his off the field issues, and I don't know what we're thinking. If we're going to give up Brown, why don't we make it for a guy who isn't a cheater, isn't hurt, and doesn't have distractions?
