God it's been so long since we've had a ball hawk. How many tens of millions of dollars have we spent on free safeties over the years trying to get some damn interceptions?!

Sharper for a season. But before that? Sammy Knight?

To my recollection, Sammy wasn't really a ballhawk either. He hit like a freight train and definitely was a playmaker but I don't remember him being a ballhawk.

Well, I would disagree, he only had less than 5 INTs in a season once for us. 42 INT total in his career. His production in that department dropped once he left the Saints.
