I would agree. First half of the season I was ready to cut him but he played well
the last 4 games.

So what you're saying to me is he pulled the mother Frigan Haslett, good at either the first four games of the season or last four, but never both

They can't let all the ILB's go. That's why they kept Hawthorne a good backup a below average starter.

Don't fall in love yet.

Draft is still over a month away

I was taking a look at the Saints Baltimore game, and he was consistently out of position or blown out of the play. He had a ball thrown right to him, can't even decide if he was suppose to be there or if it was another case of being out of position, and he drops a sure INT. Every single long run by Forsett and Bernard he is out of position and that gives the HB a hole to work through. Play after play I watch, rewind, watch again and am baffled as to how was still in that game.

The most surprising move this offseason? Not Jimmy Graham being traded, or Stills being traded or Ingram getting a contract.....no, no, no. The most surprising move was that David Hawthorne was allowed back into the state of Louisiana. And he is still getting paid.

I didn't think he would be back either but we don't have the money. Haralson isn't awe inspiring either. Hopefully Ellerbe makes them better and we draft a Vilma type player. I'm sure we would all prefer having Rickey and Vaughn Johnson instead of Haralson and Hawthorne but it's not going to happen.

Draft well and he automatically becomes the backup. It seems simple to me. But, hey what do I know?
