Maybe he was bad in SD because Phillip Rivers SUCKS!!!!

Re: Meachem breaking news
Maybe he'll sign the league minimum or FREE since he's already getting paid from the Chargers.

Re: Meachem breaking news
Sean doesn't make this move unless he sees it as helping. Plain and simple

Re: Meachem breaking news
Toon was spitting blood in the Miami game and was going to have chest X-rays. Maybe he's not ready for this Sunday. I just find it odd that we would re-sign him now.

Re: Meachem breaking news
Toon returns: Nick Toon said he's feeling fine after exiting last Thursday's final preseason game against the Miami Dolphins early.
Toon, who made an athletic diving reception that was called back due to a penalty, hit the ground hard on his way down, and left the game spitting up blood. Leaving was more of a precautionary measure than anything else, he said. "They were just being cautious, as they should be," Toon said. "Nothing major. I'm good to go. I practiced today and I'll be ready to roll on Sunday." http://www.nola.com/saints/index.ssf..._notebook.html |

I hear that Matty Lice is almost pregnant, too. If either are confirmed, it will be big news indeed.

Re: Meachem breaking news
My god ... We've never had this much firepower on either side of the ball ...

Re: Meachem breaking news
While I agree that at this price he would be benificial, we need to use the roster spot for a linebacker. We can bring the Meachums and Hendersons of the world in if there is an injury. I dont get this move. I never cared much for him anyway.

Re: Meachem breaking news
I just got a SC alert that says Meachem has signed.

Colston, Moore, Stills, Toon, Meachem, Graham, Watson, Sproles, Thomas, Ingram, and Brees.
Wow. |
Re: Meachem breaking news
NFLSirius reporting deal agreed upon.

Re: Meachem breaking news
I think Colston is hurt more than we think.
Just a hunch. I expect Moore to potentially take over the #1 spot with toon/stills/tanner/meach rotating #2 and a combination of more than one on the field at any given time. |
Re: Meachem breaking news
I'm good with this, nice insurance policy against Colston and Moore's injury histories.

Re: Meachem breaking news
I LOVED Meachem when he was in New Orleans. I thought he was desperately underrated and a complete nuisance to cover. The amount of deep balls he took in, especially on 3rd and longs seemed to be unprecedented.
The reality is this though; if we have someone injured and we are looking to replace AND Meachem passes a physical including concussion tests then this is a fantastic signing for us. Fantastic. If we are bringing him in and cutting someone else then I don't get it without additional reasoning. Most importantly, and especially offensively, I trust this organisation like NO other. We are dynamite. And at the end of the day it is also a business. We aren't losing a roster spot and wasting good money if we didn't believe it delivered genuine value. Interesting Times! |
Re: Meachem breaking news
If he plays like the last few players we have gotten from the Chargers I'll be good with it.
|
Re: Meachem breaking news
Anyone recall that Toon was spitting up blood in Miami?
Bring him in, why not? |

Re: Meachem breaking news
My guess is Reddick gets cut, or maybe Herring if they think Reddick is too valuable to expose on waivers.

Re: Meachem breaking news
I think this is also an ego move on Sean Payton's part too, and I like it.
He's trying to say "Look here's this guy who was pretty good here, he went somewhere else and they said he was washed up, but watch us, we're going to make something of him again." |
Re: Meachem breaking news
dumb move...
maybe we could focus on adding depth to the OLB position before making more offensive signings that wont matter. Mickey too focused on offense, I love what the guy has done but there comes a point where you should change your focus for a few years. |
Re: Meachem breaking news
If Toon is "okay" then why the signing? I'm a bit surprised by this just because it seemed we needed more help at OLB.

no word on who was cut or IR'd

Re: Meachem breaking news
He's on the B-team.
Colston - Toon (Go to receivers with size) Moore - Tanner (Sure handed slot receivers) Stills - Meachem (Speed merchants) |

As far as I know once the deadline for 53 passes there is no going over. Something has to have been done or the league wouldn't agree to the contract. |
Re: Meachem breaking news
@LarryHolder: RT @MikeGarafolo: Another short-term IR designation expected soon: Saints LB Jonathan Vilma, per a source.

I think we have seen the last of Vilma in a Saints uniform.
