Trade Deadline!!! (Wishlist)

BreesFN9 · 10-12-2011, 04:53 PM

OK so i've been waiting all off season and now 5 games in to see if we re really going to go by the our D bends but don't break attitude...Yep WE ARE!

News flash...It does break and often!

Now with the trade deadline upcoming are we going to make moves?

We got a 4 man RB crew don't tell me P Thomas can t get us a decent LB in return?

I'm happy with Ingram,Sproles, Ivory...You?

Now waiting on this, The Seahawks already moved Curry a former high draft pick to Oakland for a few picks and Now With the Texans Williams out they too are in the market for a LB!

That's my wishlist, Love Vilma ( 20 tackles ) but i want a Monster , Tackling, Run stuffing MLB

What's your wishlist, what is your take on D needs?

BTW where were we when N barnett ( 42 Tackles already ) and B Ruud ( 37 Tackles already ) were available! DAMN!

Trades don't happen much in the NFL and blockbuster deals during the season certainly don't happen (and trading Thomas for an LB of comparable impact would qualify as a blockbuster).

To me our best lineup at LB would be Vilma on the weak side, Dunbar in the middle, Casillas at the strong side.

And no thanks to trading Pierre. He's the only back we have who's been around long enough to know all the protections.

Maybe we can get Sean's friend

Too late. Curry has been traded. I don't know of anyone else on the block.

I'd trade Ivory before P.T.

Ivory could be used sparingly while building up his value then trade him during the off season. He doesn't have the "it factor" like the rest of our backs.jmho
He can't stay on the field and he is one dimensional.........I know Ingram hasn't shown us all that much yet but his ceiling is much higher.

FA

LB Lofa Tatupu

He leaves after anchoring the middle of Seattle's defense for most of six seasons, including three Pro Bowl appearances and a major hand in taking the Seahawks to their only Super Bowl appearance following his rookie season in 2005.

Well - if he has all that why is he available? What ISN'T this telling us about him??

The word out there is that his knees are shot after the surgeries and, because of it, he has lost much of his former speed that made him the player he was. Also he is a MLB, which the Saints have no need for.

As for Barnett, he's 30 and from what I've heard, he had a fairly big price tag.

And as for Ruud, he's a pure MLB and would've played the same spot as Vilma... and Dunbar in his most natural position.

Curry would've been an interesting decision, since I for some reason have a really good "feeling" about him. Granted I only saw two Seattle games last year, but he was definitely not the weak link on the defensive side. But I guess there had to be a reason why Seattle decided to trade him, although it could've been salary related instead of skill for all we know.

I'm not sure I would like to see PT traded away, even though the RB corps looks strong at the moment. As we know, that can change in a heartbeat and it can effectively ruin your season - the case and point being last season for the Saints. Now if the Saints could trade PT for a comparable OLB then I wouldn't be upset, but that's just not going to happen.
