Meachem breaking news

09-03-2013, 05:10 PM

I think I'm part of the 'on the fence' mob with this one.

I loved Meachem and if the coaching staff think he can come in and make a massive contribution then I am happy with that. I do however struggle to comprehend why we are taking a defensive player off of the roster and replacing him with an offensive player. Even if we didn't do a straight ILB for ILB swap, I think most people would expect their to be sense in plugging in an OLB or even someone else in a D position?

Either way. I trust. I believe. I sit on the fence

Trying to keep an open mind. Then again, he's coming from San Diego to New Orleans this time, so it probably portends good things to come.

All players who come our direction from San Diego do well. lol.

And if it doesn't work out, we couldn't have lost much. He had to be on the cheap...

Maybe the Saints are going to IR Vilma to make room for him.

If Meachem puts up stats like he did the last time he was here, the Chargers will be the laughing stock of the league!

PUP list short term; I see it depends on how he is playing when Vilma is ready to come back

We need Outside Linebackers, WTF are we doing re-signing a BUST?!?

Does he have pictures of someone in a compromised disposition?!?

Meachem was only a bust for the Chargers!

During his first New Orleans stint, he posted 141 receptions for 2,269 yards (16.1 avg.) with 23 touchdowns. His 16.1 yards per catch average ranks third in club record books. In six postseason contests, Meachem has recorded 14 catches for 184 yards with one touchdown.
