Singletary : Saints

1. Vilma has nothing to do with the Saints 3-4
Vilma has always been a strictly 4-3 kinda guy. He doesn't match well with a 3-4 scheme. In fact, when Eric Mangini took over the Jets in 2006 and brought with him a switch to the 3-4, Vilma's production suffered seriously over the next two years. So much so that in 2008 the Jets let him shop for a trade, one that brought him to New Orleans.

2. Aldon Smith was not a Singletary decision.

3. The 49ers Defense never broke the top 10 while he was in SF.
He is in Minnesota right now for the last two years doing what he did in SF and the Vikings Defense is raking the same as the 49ers did when he was there.

What does "cheaper" have to do with anything?

There is already a Mike Singletary thread.

I disagree, he has a very limited role in Minnesota when it comes to the actual implementation of the defense, and very little credit should be given to him personally for the way that defense bounced back this year - all numbers aside.

Ok.. Less of a reason to want him.

That is EXACTLY why he left the Jets - to get to a 4-3 team.
That said, he'll be with us for another season or two. We signed him up for that long....
