The News-Tribune reports free-agent LB Anthony Simmons’ (Seahawks) career could be heading south. The former No. 1 draft choice, released by Seattle last week, has landed in New Orleans for a free-agent visit with the Saints. When healthy, Simmons possesses the speed and athletic ability that made him Seattle’s top pick in 1998. But after clashing with coaches and missing 20 games to injury since 2002, Simmons is looking for a second chance.

I know one thing he would be an upgrade, how much of one i do not know!!

Simmons to Visit Saints
 

If he can stay healthy I think he would be a really good pickup. Maybe he just needs a fresh start. If he comes cheap, then his addition certainly wouldn\'t hurt.

Simmons to Visit Saints
 

I\'m on board. He would be a decent pickup. We still need to draft a LB in the first 3 rounds though.IMO

Simmons to Visit Saints
 

Yes without a doubt. I just hope we lose Hodge and Rodgers in the offseason. I would like to keep Ruff and Allen as backups and have Watson, Simmons and Colby at starter. although i would rather have DJ in the draft, but that seems unlikely!

Simmons to Visit Saints
 

Simmons has not played a full season in the last 3 years. HE better be cheap, or I don\'t want him.

Simmons to Visit Saints
 

He should come cheap. Injuries hamper value, look at Ty Law. I don\'t think he is going to be a pro bowler, but he still would be an upgrade. Has anyone heard if Rob Morris of Indy has signed anywhere?

Dig the new avatar, turbo. Quote\'s funny as hell too.

Oh, umm, hurrah, Simmons....rah rah. <cough>.

Simmons definately has talent but we haven\'t had any luck with troubled players... Albert Connell, Dale Carter, blah blah. But if you really think about it, our defensive does need some personality.

Simmons to Visit Saints
 

Personality you say...I hear Turley won\'t be back in ST Louis?????????

:xxrotflmao:

Way too much personality for Hasbeen ......

Thanks, BnB. Now go drink a cold one and quit looking at me like that.

Simmons to Visit Saints
 

I\'ll take Simmons. Hell, at this point I would take anyone who purported to be a LB, whether he really is or not. :)

Geez, would he even make this roster of LB studs...
Courtney Watson
Colby Bockwoldt
James Allen
Orlando Ruff
Derrick Rodgers
Roger Knight
Jeremiah Garrison
Cabel Rohloff
Terrance Melton

Who on this list is he better than? :casstet:
I\'m guessing he\'d immediately be tied for 2nd best LB on this team.

We\'ll soon be the Raiders of the South and America. Gimme your tired, worn and hungry, something like that. WhatEVEER.

Simmons left the facility without a contract offer. Just read it on KFFL a moment ago.

Would be a decent signing, but if he goes elsewhere it would be no big loss!
