New Orleans Saints sign DT Nick Fairley

03-17-2016, 05:09 PM

We haven't signed him yet........

However, we still need a GUARD in the draft. I'm fine with Thomas over Treadwell.

His reputation for being lazy scares me but he undoubtly has a ton of talent.

Well looks like some restaurants might be extra busy tonight. Oh how I don't want Sully Jr on this team

^What is wrong with Fairley?

Fat, lazy, took plays off and been known to look like Tarzan and play like Jane. Ask SloMo he'll fill you in

Just depends on who we are looking at. He played well for the Rams and ranked favorably according to pff.

There really isn't a better option at DT in FA. If we sign him and Hatcher I'll be happy.

We NEED talent on that line and Nick is talented. Strong at the point of attack, ties up blockers (this is where LB's can make plays), disrupts plays etc. Recent addition James Laurinitus (sp) would probably give coaches more input on his production from last year w/the Rams.

I can't see why anyone would be against NF if the price is right.

He will sign. Call it a hunch. Im excited the front office is getting serious about our defense. I believe the philosophy is changing in front of our eyes.
