"100 (percent) appreciate the opportunity the Saints gave me," he wrote. Really are you sure. You didn't play like you did.

He wasn't talking about the opportunities he gave the Saints.

And most other teams....

Nice to see he's appreciative of the opportunity to play football in the NFL. No one is owed the chance. And he got to play for the best city in the world.

Good life. Good luck.

I thought this was a great signing when he first came on board. Training camp got mixed reviews and it was all down hill from there. IIRC in his contract it said he got bonuses for extended playing time. I was stunned that they kept putting him on the field even with all the injuries.

Still, he wasn't used correctly here. Possibly because we lacked talent around him or the talent needed from our coaches to get him ready.

The funny thing is we brought him in to be a leader after playing for two Super bowl teams. He was supposed to make everyone around him accountable. We have really swung and missed on our FA signings. However with our new staff maybe things will get better. We have been more successful with mid tier FA's than with high dollar impact players.

His parting words were classy. That helped with the bad taste in my mouth.

#39 was ranked 77th corner in 2014 w/15 penalties in 12 games. If you go back to 2013 up in Seattle, he played a total of 8 games 0 snaps in the playoffs. I hate to

but there are reasons the Patriots and Seahags let him walk & we were his 3rd team in 3 seasons. Saints overpaid for a terrible cornerback and we were burned .. badly.

Hopefully lesson learned for us.
