Breakdown of Curtis Lofton
Nice to see Pat writing about something else than the Bountygate and/or how severely the Saints should be punished. |

He didn't do that good of a job with the background work... again.
He failed to mention that Lofton turned down a Failclown extension contract during last season, because he felt that they were low-balling him with the contract offer. So, there might be some bad feeling between Lofton and the Failclowns FO because of that earlier occurrence. Also, he didn't mention that Lofton had knee surgeries last off-season, but had fully recuperated to take part in the first practices after the CBA was finalized. |

I'm a homer.. I want a Sooner wearing black and gold... I also want a leader on the field for the defense. His game IQ is very high. He doesn't quit.

Maybe he should have called this a semi-breakdown of Curtis Lofton.
On a side note there are 4 defensive downs right? If he is on the field 4 of the defensive snaps then he's got to be a special teamer too right? He doesn't mention any special team contribution. Not that it really matters. Just curious. |

I did a decent breakdown on him in a past article on Thursday or so... Maybe be better. Let me go find it.

Here it is. Hope this is a bit better. Curtis Lofton on the radar of the New Orleans Saints; Jonathan Vilma likely out

The more I read about him the more I like him. He's a team leader and he's smart enough to start as a rookie. I just wonder how much we'll pay for an OLB'er? We can't really afford to play him at end either. A little mix of both from a creative coach might do even more for his career.
