Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

I began to wonder if he would sign with the Saints because he's been supposed to sign for a while now.

I am loving this move! :razz:

However, I can still see us double dipping at DT in the draft.

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

1 year, 3 million.

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

Only a 1 year deal...

Wish we at least had an option for a 2nd. It's a good move though. He has had injury issues.

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

This is a move I am definitely on board with, has a ton of potential.

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

Championship!

:banana:

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

Not a fan of it but it's a one year deal so i can live with it. I hope he proves me wrong

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

Young, talented, rotational player. Has never lived up to his draft status and has been basically average. Expecting him to somehow thrive in New Orleans is like catching lightening in a bottle. Hopefully he will be solid at least.

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

that seems like a lot for 1.5 sacks over the past 2 years

we haven't had a decent DT since...since...someone help me out here

L'Roi Glover

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

This signing is fine for the money and length. I just don't view this as THE answer at DT. Still hoping to get a real difference maker there in the draft.

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

What a player he was. When they teamed him up with Norman Hand..holy cow. Not to mention having Joe Johnson around that same time.. I was still young in my fanhood then and didn't fully appreciate what a beastly D line we had for a while there. So many great defensive players who were wasted during all those years of futility.. to have just a couple of them right now.

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

Now what are we going to talk about? :-(

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

The DRAFT :broccoli: !

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

WR

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

He's got a year to prove himself or will move on.

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

If he misses the tackle, his former teammate Laurinitis will be right there to back him up :)

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

He hasn't really had a season where he lit up the stat board... Hopefully he and Jenkins can be disruptive enough to free up Jordan and whoever the other DE might be... Just push the pocket back so the QB can't step up into it :bng:

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

Nick Fairley is a great example of drafting a player with this one key phrase in his scouting report.

Only has one year of production

Not that he is not capable but he went from nothing to the considered the consensus top defensive tackle. 13th pick in the draft and got a boat load of money. It went to his head. His character and work habits were in question

Why take the chance?
he can be a dangerous, gap-shooting defensive tackle who after the past few years may have gotten the humble pie he deserves. It appears his head is screwed on straighter than it has been since getting to the NFL. He is out to prove his critics wrong and more importantly out to prove something to himself. we are all hope.

Go for it.

now we need some more beef

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

Its why he's the GM, and why we're not

Brilliant!

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

Like it.

I love Cam. I cant believe how many people say we need to get rid of him. That would be one of the most bone headed moves ever

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

Is 2 or 3 people really "that many"?

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

:bng:

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

I'm going to love it when 'bad player' Coby Fleener, in tandem with Drew, comes out next year and rips the league a new one.

Love the Fairley singing. Reckon we have done well in FA.

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

But he gives the fact that Atlanta' paying Mack 9.5mil a year a B Vernon getting 18mil a year a B but the Saints are overpaying Lauirinitis and Fleener. I'm not sure the guy knows what he's talking about. I don't care what he gave the Saints for the Fairley signing.

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

I've got to admit it; I'm happy with the FA signings this off season. Fleener, King Lauirinitus and now Fairley. Some talented guys in positions we really need severe help in. Now they just have to perform.

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

Don't forget Robertson, gonna help immensely in coverage

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

Tony Elliot?
Derland Moore?

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

If the coaching is good, this move will pay off.

He has the ability. Just needs a fire lit.

Re: Nick Fairley - SIGNED
 

Thank you Mitch.

I don't have the "HELLYEAH WE'RE GOIN TO THE SUPERBOWL" mentality that I have gotten from other FA pick-ups in the past. I really think we have pick up SOLID players.

Good work FO.
