Re: Barry Hirstius: Saints Versatility (and LB Coach Mike Nolan) is Reason Why Saints Traded for Linebacker Kiko Alonso
He could really work out for us. The one concern I have is his reputation and track record of absolute dirty hits and head-hunting. We have a physical defense that don't have to rely on dirty hits, so hopefully he can iron this out.

The Saints are saying he's better than the guy they traded away. And he has a higher cap hit. I guess it will remain to be seen.

He had a hit on Flacco that drew a flag, but not a suspension, and a late hit on a sliding Andrew Luck. Big deal. Sounds to me like an aggressive player, not some sort of head-hunter.

I would've been over the mood for this trade a few years ago. |

And any reference to "head-hunting" by Alonzo is solely in response by a bunch of whinny-assed Ravens fans over the Flacco hit on social media.

Oh, and search for "great hits" on youtube by any hard-hitting LB and you'll see the exactly same plays.
