till Drew restructure this is what happens to a team that pays so much to just one player. cuts have to made. so far they hurt but we can survive. the next ones will be harder to take i think

lesson learned?

DO NOT OVERPAY JIMMY

Take a deep breath everyone. Yes some of these are shocking but they were predicted months ago.

When something surprising happens like this you should take a long hard look at the source.

As far as I know we ALL have plenty of faith in Loomis and Payton. No?

We have all complained about our predictability. No?

Those two have worked this team over before haven't they?

Payton and Loomis love to find and use niche players. Well changing the play book and the predictability requires different players.

Well son of a beotch. I was only gone about 12 hours this time, and now Sproles is gone? Holy Crap! We are gutting the team. I guess Loomis and Payton have plans. Sad to see ya go Sproles, but I guess buisiness is business. All I know, is that Jimmy Graham and Drew Brees better play Balls-To-The-Walls next season. 100 million dollars....Geez.

Sproles was a great back, but he definitely lost something over the past year. I hate seeing him and Moore leaving the Saints, but the time has come to retool the offense. We played well last year, but its not quite Superbowl material and changes have to be made. It's tough though when its your favorite players that get caught in the shuffle. Sproles will find a new home, as will Lance, and they will be strong contributors to their new teams.

WOW ! just plain WOW ! Time to say good bye, and I don't like it.

To be 100% honest, I wasn't all that impressed with Sproles.

Ran across these today
In a sports memorabilia shop in The Woodlands.

Don't think Sproles ever fully recovered from his concussion he suffered vs the Jets.

what a huge void this leaves. i hold a slim hope that darren is is resigned after he tests the market at a cap friendly salary. if not sign a one year deal else where and returns when the following year when drew can redo his contract.

thanks and i am holding out hope this is not the last we see of him in B&G
