Any free agent who has the potential to make a significant impact is of interest. How often does the team come out and say who they are interested in? What would be the point of that?

And I don't really care about the Norman thing, because he isn't worth the money he got. Not when compared to this team's overall needs. But I'm curious. On what authority do you think you know that he never gave the Saints a chance? I'm sure he gave them a chance, and his number was too high. That's not difficult to comprehend. I'm glad the Saints didn't give in to his demands.

What YOU fail to comprehend, ole friend, is that I have never stated that a deal wouldn't get done, or that one was not in place. I have no idea if one is in place, and neither do you. But if one is indeed in place, which it could be, then I do not agree with the approach of waiting til after the draft. I've already outlined the reasons why.

I'm sure you'll be telling me that it doesn't matter what I think. So let me get out ahead of you, and remind you that this forum is for discussion, and every single person here understands that our opinions are not, and never will be under consideration by management. Most of us have seen enough football to recognize what kind of philosophies work. We've seen teams fail miserably with certain plans, and succeed with others. That's how we form our opinions. The fact that I disagree with something does not make me ignorant of it. You have a hard time understanding that.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
