If he can come in and relieve Shanle of his job while saving money, I'm all for it..

The problem with that is we needed a significant upgrade. If it were about money, they could have restructured Shanle. But it was about performance, as to why we needed to replace him, and to get a guy who is the same or marginally better was not going to help enough to notice.

But as we all know now, the Saints signed Lofton, so I'm ok with Chamberlain being a role player.
