John Clayton say saints interested in Brandon Browner

Yes. One of the corners I've been preaching about. He could be a huge bonus for us after he serves his four game suspension. And yeah it was for weed in a state where it's legal, plus a majority of the league does it and are in the process of researching it's positive effect on concussions. So that shouldn't matter. And with the leadership of the locker room, they will keep him straight. So that shouldn't be a problem.

Anyways he is a big physical corner that can shut down a top receiver. Has experience with the leagues best defense last year and brings the smash mouth mentality we need. He would be a huge bonus for us. Only downfall is he will miss those first four games, but the first four aren't as important as the last four. We have Robinson and white to get is by til then. I'm all for Browner.

Sign him. Add to the Bird Bath defense.

There's interest from the #Saints in CB Brandon Browner, but Browner hasn't confirmed a visit yet with the team, according to a source.

If he ends up here that is one hell of a backfield.

Draft a good WR/C/RT and try and get Aaron Colvin with one of the 5th rounders if he is still there and its a monster roster.

I don't like this at all. I've not read through all post in this thread. But I wonder how many of you feel the same way that I do. Browner is a repeat offender of the substance abuse policy, and will miss the first four games of the season in 14. I'm not saying you can't be a good teammate and a positive locker room presence with a drug issue... but do you really want this type of situation in the clubhouse???

At 6-4 220 lbs he is a physical presence that would further help our secondary. But Browner has too many issues to my liking. Plus, we need help along the offensive line more than we need another corner.

Remember, alot of those leaders have been released. I know we still have a strong head coach and Brees in the fold, but the locker room has changed alot in the past few months...

Done. You can all use it. But be careful not to use Blood instead of Bird.

Can't he appeal the suspension next year?

K Major · 03-13-2014, 09:33 PM

I bet he ends up signing with New England.

He did. 2 years.

Maybe not:

Albert Breer ✔ @AlbertBreer

Agent Peter Schaffer said Raiders, Saints, Redskins still in running for Browner. As @RapSheet said, Browner told teammates he's got a deal.
