Hey remember... Fisher might be the next big time contributor here! He was a second round pick years ago with a degenerative knee problem... there\'s nothing wrong with that! :casstet:
I made a thread about Cowart like a month ago sw, and if I\'m not correct... not many people in these forums are enamored with this guy. I would have loved to have made this trade. When healthy, this guy is a tackling MACHINE. [Edited on 18/3/2005 by papz] |

Forgive me if I am wrong, but a 6th or 7th round pick is the biggest crap shoot I can think of. We can get players like Cowart or Fujita for a pick that low and we are twiddling out thumbs?????? Now THIS is crap.

This is New Orleans Saints Free Agency. They\'re not doing anything different than they\'ve done for the past three or four years. Sign players at positions of minimal to moderate need, often time who don\'t explicitly fill that need, and pass on bigger needs. Fisher is this year\'s Orlando Ruff. Welcome to New Orleans, Whodi.

interesting list. ya go back at least to 1987 bo jackson (who was #1 overall in \'86), maybe before then with a few names. 36 listed there. let\'s just say 20 years X 32 teams (for simplicity) X 2 rounds (6th-7th)= 1280 picks. 2.8% nameable is a crapshoot.
i\'m pathetic enough i look up N.O. 6th and 7ths... bockwoldt kareem kelly talman gardner john gilmore derrius moore o\'sullivan mitch white ennis davis bulger michael hawthorne sherrod gideon kevin houser chris bordano andy mccoullough ron warner nicky savoie keno hills toderick malone henry lusk lee deramus travis davis lance lundeberg phew, to \'94 is tiring enough |

i\'m waiting for them to sign Lady Luck.
------ hey, the cowart deal is even sweeter... The Vikings\' trade last week for N.Y. Jets linebacker Sam Cowart, acquired for a 2005 seventh-round draft pick, carried one caveat: If Cowart suffers a training camp injury or does not make the team, the Jets must \"return\" the pick by sending the Vikings their 2006 seventh-round pick. |
