at least he's not Gay

this guy is fast..he has 98 speed in madden lol
|
Interesting.... A DT would be nice also...

Now that is FAST! He was the 23rd selection in the 2005 draft by Oakland and was traded to the Ravens on draft day 2008. Seemed he became expendable when DeAngleo Hall was signed by the Raiders? |

Will probably battle Torrence for the final CB spot.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.
|
You can't coach speed.
Not to mention ST's...??? |
Washington is a depth signing for a Saints team that should boast one of the league's better secondaries this season. He has missed a total of 12 games with injury the past three seasons, but could be an asset behind Jabari Greer, Tracy Porter and Patrick Robinson if he can stay healthy. It's not a guarantee he'll be able to pass rookie Johnny Patrick on the depth chart, however. Jul 31, 10:59 AM

I wanted this guy a couple of years ago. Nice pick up but I would like to see a LB signed with last name Barnett.

Read my all-inclusive write-up here:
New Orleans Saints News Still waiting on more defensive signings by the Saints, like a veteran DT and maybe another OLB. |

With needs at DT and desperate needs at OLB why are we messin around with a CB who will only see action in a dime package.

Stupidest Headline Of The Week Award.
I just so happen to love a lot of people who ARE gay, and I get really sick of this kind of **** on internet chatboards. Not only that, Randall Gay is a 3X Champion (1 with LSU, 2 with NFL,) a Louisiana boy, and a stellar human being. |

and with the free for all still going on up front, DB's may STILL have to over indulge in run support. That will keep them hobbling and ailing in the back. Until we know that the DB's can consentrate on coverage ( proof of a pass rush and speed on the edges ), we may need good depth across the back, AGAIN. |
I like it. Payton is staying true to form. Every since he got here he has been bringing in corners and trying to upgrade the CB position. He knows that our corners have an injury history and doesn't want to bring in players off the street later.
|
I don't know about pushing for a starting job. While he has all the speed in the world, he doesn't have instincts to be a above average starter in this league like a Greer and Porter. If anyone is going to push those two for a starting spot, it's going to be Robinson. Washington is a capable corner... not someone I'd want starting.
Should be a good backup and special teamer here. |
