It was an unconditional pick, if the guy makes no impact or even gets released i don't think we have to give the team anything

can someone clarify that for me?

It was "undisclosed" but you're probably right. The pick was probably dependent on playing time.

I doubt we lose anything, maybe a 7th at the worst.

just reconfirms, that stud scott shanle will not be unseated in this organization. he is destined to the saints wall of fame someday. there is something that 90% of us is not seeing what he really brings to the saints.
barrett who?

Why couldn't we "produce" new evidence identifying Shanle as the mastermind of the Bounty Program?

If we could at least get him off the field for a spell.

Because goodell reads these boards and would say there isn't enough evidence on Shanle just to annoy us lol

This means Greer's groin injury is worst than what's being reported. To re-sign Mack tells me Greer won't be ready in 2 weeks which isn't a good sign.

How is it that a guy you never heard of in college turns into an All Pro in the NFL. That DL lineman from Wisconson from Houston as well as a few guys on our team.

Wrong fit for that college scheme, maturation, coaching, laundry list...

The opposite can be summed up with one name. JaMarcus Russell

Also the weight room! I have seen dudes who come in to the pros and they don't really look like much, you give them an off season or two in a real pro weight room with real NFL caliber trainers, and next thing you know all of a sudden they get the huge arms and thighs and big shoulders and start to look like real football players out there.
