Roman Harper prefers returning to New Orleans Saints to being a coveted free agent

Fact is a large, lumbering rookie quarterback ran him down. I'm not hating on the man, just calling it like [I] see it. Isn't that what this forum is for? You disagree... No problem. If and when Harper shows up in a Saints uniform, I'll be tipping a beer and cheering for him as well.

Truth is we're blessed to have a defense good enough that we kick around what it would be like to part with a player like Roman Harper.

What I am concerned with is his speed and ability when it counts. In Seattle, IT COUNTED. Now he will return from an irregular offseason and I doubt that he will have picked up speed during that time.

Fortunately for the Saints, Danno, you and I don't make these decisions. [chuckle]

Cheers,
Alaska

I never said he wasn't run down. You said Harper had a 5 yard head start on him when in fact it was the exact opposite. I also call it like I see it, and the video evidence supports the way I saw it.

If Gregg Williams wants him, that's a decision I can live with. If Williams doesn't, I can live with that too.
