this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Most any coach will tell you that it takes 3-years MINIMUM to effectively judge a draft pick. That\'s three years if they are playing correct? Why not just be \"logical\" instead of asking questions like this? No, it doesn\'t mean ...

Mike Detillier comments. Very interesting, indeed!
No, it doesn\'t mean it takes 3 years IF a player is playing. Devery Hendeson didn\'t play last year. Stinchcomb hasn\'t played for 2-years. That has nothing to do with it. Some players are able to play earlier due to a number of different reasons. |

gumbo honestly you cant make a comparison between deuce and sully. i mean that is just silly. it isnt even apples and oranges. its more like apples and lasagna with roasted peppers and eggplant. i was hoping sully was serious about getting better. i mean i hope the guy does something or wants to. if not cut him. why not. with mcpherson he was drafted in the 5th round. he made mistakes before he was a saint and on top of that he was a kid. more then that im not even sure what he did. at least he wasnt beating his girlfriend. what he did to me wasnt that serious. i would probally worry more about the guy that keeps having his name involved in beating women or raping them. thats just me.

another good thread. it seems there is a little more civility than of late. that draft thing does escalate the emotions i believe. and rightly so for passionate fans. sorry for not contributing more this week. i really am still coming to grips with the draft. i appreciate the effort that goes into many of these thoughtful discussions, partaking or not.
not as any mr. meassge board guy or anything i do have one comment about how discussions have gone that might be helpful generally. that is, i think there will be much more productive dialogue if there is restraint from telling other people what they think. \"you said this so you think this\" lines more often stir ire rather than create constructive interchange. if questioning someone\'s viewpoint ask a question, don\'t put their answers in a blank for them. contesting or refuting another is most effective when not nitpicking the other\'s words but in presenting sound logical rebuttals. not football talk but a respectful atmosphere (no matter how vast the differences are) will make for a better and more attractive board. |

I suggest that we take Kelley\'s suggestion to heart.

Deuce didn\'t get hurt because he was out of shape, he got hurt because his linemen got out of the way and let a couple of 49ers twist his leg in half. Let\'s see.....one of the more successful backs this team has had vs one of the biggest busts they\'ve had. It just isn\'t in the same ballpark. I can\'t believe i even addressed it.
There is a very simple and clear distinction between AMac and Sully, and any draft expert will tell you this. 5th round steal vs. 1st round reach.....period. End of discussion. If we would have gone for Adrian in the 1st round, and he got caught stealing from the locker room next year, there would be a parallel. We paid a high price for Sully and have gotten nothing. Anything we get from Adrian will be gravy. His upside is tremendous as a 5th rounder. And you freakin send him packing if he acts up......without any cap hit to boot. I don\'t see why this is even a discussion. |
