Re: What are your Top 10 Favorite All Time Saints?

In no particular order:

- Morten Anderson - "The Great Dane", MSU All-American
- Wille Roaf - HOF'er, gotta' respect offensive lineman who so often toil in obscurity
- Sean Payton - coaching great who turned a franchise around ... on par with the likes of Scotty Bowman, Sparky Anderson and others, IMO.
- Tom Dempsey - anyone who can kick a ball that far with only half a foot gets my vote
- Kyle Turley - the world needs more enforcers
- Thomas Morestead - at one point, a season or two ago, he was the best tackler on special teams, or so it seemed
- Jimmy Graham - redefined the touchdown celebration by wrecking the goal posts
- Steve Gleason - for the 'block heard round the world' ... and it was against the Failclowns, which made it even more special,
- Bobby Hebert - won championships with the Michigan Panthers (USFL) & has my undying gratitude for that one brief, shining moment he brought winning football to Detroit
- Drew Brees - how can you not love the guy?

honorable mention:

- Tom Lelito - hasn't really done anything (yet), but a Michigan 'local boy' done good
- Joe Horn - the whole 'barbecue sauce' thing won me over
- Reggie Bush/Joique Bell - first running back tandem in NFL history to each record 500+ rushing/receiving yds in one season, albeit for the Lions ... but we all know where they got their grit from, .
- Lance Moore - 'cuz his Mama raised him right & he was a darn good route-runner.


dishonorable mention:

- Pat Swilling - came to Detroit, insisted on wearing a previously retired number of one of Detroit's all-time greats (#56, Joe Schmidt) & was then a flop.

#1 Danny Abramowicz held the NFL record for most consecutive games with a t least one catch and all of the Saints receiving records until Eric Martin. He has to be on this list and no way Devery can take his place.(and I love Devery), plus he coached me to play WR at Jesuit., #2 Dalton Hilliard, 3 # Archie Manning, # 4 Deuce Mcallister, # 5 Eric Martin, #6 Rickey Jackson, # 7 Sam Mills, # 8 Drew Brees, # 9 Sam Mills, # 10 Willey Roaf. Hard to leave off.......Bobby Hebert, Joe Horn, Pat Swilling, Ironhead, Vaughn Johnson, and of course Morten Anderson.

I'm a big Sam Mills fan too, but I'm only giving him one spot.
