Tracy Porter possibly could find home with Rams

WhoDat!656 · 02-24-2012, 06:06 AM

Cornerback Tracy Porter may not be back with the New Orleans Saints next season as he is set to become a free agent this year, and with the pending contract of Drew Brees, and perhaps Carl Nicks and Marques Colston, there may be no money left for Porter.

Clouding the issue is that Porter’s value to the Saints defense took a nose dive in 2011 as he was eventually replaced in the starting lineup by second year corner Patrick Robinson

Tracy Porter could find a new home with the St. Louis Rams

Dude gave us some great memories in 2009 and always love porter for that, he's just been too inconsistent and hasn't done Anything since 2009.
Thanks for the great Super Bowl memory Tracy, Robinson already took his spot in 2010

Good luck in St. Louis, and thanks for the memories.

I think he was afraid to do too much on his knee after surgery. I believe he will play much better this year since his knee should be 100% no matter who he plays for.

I think Tracy's whole problem was moving to the nickel. He's a CB. He did OK at NB but I think he'd be much better at CB.

I also think Patrick Robinson will emerge as our best CB next season.

We can only hope for the latter.

Porter may just end up a Raider.

All speculation. Lets wait and see.

I like Porter I wish he could stay with the Saints

I think Porter could return to '09 form with Flajoles assistance...
