But their flaw is they do get fixated on a player and tend to make mistakes...

The Saints were convinced Glenn Dorsey and Jeremy Shockey additions would propel them past Chicago in the playoffs...

Well they overpaid the Giants for Shockey and panicked when Chiefs' Carl Peterson sensed the desperation for Dorsey and tried to extort them...

Saints FO fell back, but still smarting, made the horrible mistake of trading with the Pats to get Ellis...

Probably passing on a great linebacker in Jerrod Mayo and could have let the Bengals spare us Ellis and his lame, lazy-@$$ game...

Just because some don't drink the coolaid, that doesn't mean they're less a fan - some just question - and that is a good thing...

Hind sight brother, it's crystal clear 5 years later. You've not once been high on a player pre-draft and 4 years later he was no longer in the NFL? Sean and Loomis have brought us the best 8 years of Saints football in history. There is no consistent perfection on the NFL, if there is I challenge you to point it out.

Shockey played his part in a Super Bowl win.
