this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I don't put a lot of stock in what Detillier has to say. But that's just me. I wanted to post this so you guys could read it. Taken from another board: Heard him on 1300am at lunch: I didn't ...

So if any of this is true, and they are thinking of cutting Sullivan if they can trade Howard, should we still give him one more chance? Sounds like the team might not be, and I would be dancing in the streets. No more free rides Sully. Hope you made enough to live on. No more free buffets while you collect a check.

How pitiful would it be if Sully is outplayed by an undersized 6th round rookie?

Well if Jefferson turns out to be the run-stuffing DT that w\'eve been needing, then it could mean the end for Sullivan. However, I have no faith when it comes to Detillier\'s \"inside\" knowledge of what\'s going on with the Saints. NONE!! And I\'m not so sure what to think about Detillier\'s \"scouting\" abilities? It is surprising to me to see Detillier talk so highly of our draft picks. Talk about taking a 180. Detillier is usually very harsh of ANYthing Haslett and co. do. |

Like I said, if this is true, I do not think cutting Sullivan would be an announcement of Jefferson\'s overwhelming talent. I think if Jefferson shows some ability, the Sullivan pick is a message to the rest of the team that under-performing and being overweight will no longer be tolerated. It is time to shed the underachiever label this team has been saddled with. Wasn\'t there a guy with Sully in the booth when Sully was in ATL? Smith or something? He was cut the next day, yet Sully was still collecting checks. It would be HUGE for them to admit their mistake on Sully, and it would be HUGE to show the rest of the team enough is enough. Talking to you Donte. Talking to you Allen. Talking to AB. Anyone who is not pulling their weight is gone, regardless of the consequences. Kinda like NE. I like it, if it\'s true.

You think cutting Sully is a message that needs to be sent? What message did it send when Haslett cut Tebucky Jones? What message did it send when Haslett got rid of Grady Jackson? I mean, how many messages need to be sent? I\'m really not interested in any more \"messages\" being sent. All I\'m worried about is getting the best players on the field.

Yup, they sent the right message with Tebucky, and they sent the right message with Grady. Let me ask you, what message is being sent when one healthy guy who is inactive but goes and eats at the ATL media buffet is cut, and another isn\'t? What message does it send that no matter how hard someone else works, a fat lazy, underachiever will be in front of them on the depth chart? What message does it send to keep players like that around? When they cut these players, it sends a message that we are no longer wanthing that kind of atmosphere here. Tebucky wasn\'t cutting it, so bye. Grady was eating more players than he was tackling, bye. Same goes for Sully. I don\'t care how many messages it takes as long as at some point they deliver the right one.

I COULD ask what kind of message is being sent when you draft a convicted thief? I COULD say that by drafting a convicted thief that it sends a message to the team that they\'ll be given another chance in New Orleans. But, I\'m not!! |

Or you could just ask the questions instead of being cheeky.
Here are my thoughts on Sully from the other thread on the same topic:
