Re: Saints 2016 Coaching Staff
To be fair; he was good for his rookie preseason; 3 sacks I believe... Injured on September 25th and waived before he ever saw the field again.
It's hard to say if he got better, because he was pretty damn good before he was injured... Signed again in '08 from the Dolphins because we were looking at him to be a long snapper, released when a better option was found. |

Now to address two other areas, the indefensible defensive line and that porous offensive line... |

Re: Saints 2016 Coaching Staff
Fuita's best years were here, in fact I'd say he got better as a Saint. Cassillas was the same player here as he was with the Rams. Shanle was better here than in Dallas

Think you may mean J Dunbar as Casillas plays for the G'nats and is doing really well... Jonathan Casillas, OLB for the New York Giants at NFL.com Agree with you on another post that Shanle too waay took much flack, he played all out with his physical talents and mistakes were often because the strong safety (Bama41) was slow to pick up 'exchanges' in coverage... |
