Nick Fairley Placed on NFI

Ouch, and the hits keep on rolling with this front office:

Despite the condition being a non-football injury, the Saints will still have to pay Fairley the other half of the $8 million on his contract, per NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo.

My thing is there are people on here pointing to the fact that we are better without him, so if that is the case then there was literally no reason to sign him to the large contract

Yeah man his health is what matters, no doubt about that, but yeah another kick in the teeth

Nobody has said we are better without him. But we can absorb the loss much easier with the vast improvements with LB's and DB's.

And exactly how could that have been foreseen by the front office? Every new contract is accompanied by a physical, especially if there was already a condition which was a known factor by all parties? And I don't see this standing in the way of our second Lombardi. One small piece. The drop off from Fairley to the next man up isn't that great in the scheme of things.
