Like I stated in a previous post, I don't agree at all with calling Williams a bust. He was a beast and I wish we would have kept him.

It is believed that Miami is not going to bring him back, I honestly believe he would be a perfect fit for the Saints. He should have a couple years left in him, and seems to be fine with being a role player. Put him in the mix with Thomas and Ivory, and I can actually see the Saints being one of the top rushing teams in the league. All the Saints really need to do is get the running game going and the rest will take care of itself. Brees would be absolutely lethal again!

Not a bad idea I'd say. I still remember when I saw him in Miami during the 09 season. The Dolphins dominated in teh first round when they were handing him the ball. Then they tried to pass and we all know what ensued...
