He isn't very physical, but apparently he's fast and has some playmaking ability. Hopefully Zimmer and company can coach him up and get his tackling a bit better. He is a first rounder afterall.

David Jones is a pretty solid #4 guy at corner. There was just no room for him on our squad, who is pretty stacked at corner right now.

Patriots have traded a conditional pick to Philadelphia for LB Tracy White.

BigJohn98 · 09-04-2010, 05:58 PM

Reggie Nelson hasn't made a play since his rookie year. Good luck with that.

Very good special teams player. Don't really see where he fits at LB in a 3-4 though.

There's been more trades this year during final cuts weekend than I have ever seen at this time in past years but every trade has been for average at best players or for players that teams just want to unload and rather have someone who can help them at another position or a late round draft pick instead of releasing the traded player. I dont even think any player that has been traded for will even be a starter week one. Its basically releasing backups and then trading for backups.

As a 49ers fan, im personally waiting to see if/when WR Vincent Jackson gets traded. I just hope that he doesnt get traded to SEA or STL.

And I'll be shocked if DAL trades Barber or Choice. Maybe, its a smoke screen and they're going to trade Jones instead.

Its an uncapped year so its pretty much a free for all because moves can be made with reckless abandon so to speak.

Anyone have any promising OLBs up for trade? Saints are in desperate need of one... now with Jon Casillas on IR.

We can trade a promising young WR like Adrian Arrington, and have draft picks.

I'm glad he was a decent player but nothing special for the Chiefs, he just flat out didn't want to be here and would have caused trouble in the locker room.

Saints-Tigers · 09-04-2010, 07:54 PM

I will bunch TitanHope's prom date in the face if the Saints don't enter the bidding on Thomas Howard.

It never fails a first round bust gets traded to a new team and fans think their team will fix him.

Benson
Pac...Adam Jones
Roy Williams

So far so good for us.
Pac has looked outstanding so far.
Roy was the leader of our D before his injury.

More importantly than all that, I trust Mike Zimmer and Kevin Coyle to get the best out of him.

Yeah, that makes no sense at all.

But really...they're not going to trade Barber or Choice this year, imo.

If Peerman or Scott wasn't so impressive this pre-season, I would be all for a trade to get Choice or Barber to back-up and split carries with Benson.

I would love a Benson/Barber/Scott backfield.

Trading Jones would make as much sense as trading Barber or Choice. Barber and Jones are injury prone and Choice has played good when given the chance. I personally think that they should keep and use all three which would increase the chances that they all stay healthy.

Same can be said for WR Roy Williams. Oops, sorry. My mistake. That went the other way around.

xxxxxxxx · 09-04-2010, 10:07 PM

Felix Jones isn't getting traded... no offense but that was ********... lol my dog knows felix isn't getting traded..

Should be interesting to see Dan and Rob in the same offense. I wonder if McDaniels' thinking on that was that Dan will step up his game with Rob in New England.

Saints-Tigers · 09-05-2010, 12:34 AM

Wow, bunching. I'm not even gonna edit that, I'm just gonna leave it there so my fail is plain to see.

Felix Jones has about as much potential as any RB in the league. Trading him makes no sense what so ever. Barber is just about shot and Choice is great in his role. He's a good back, but more expendable than Felix.

EvilNixon · 09-05-2010, 07:58 AM

please give us a 3rd for Thomas Howard...Please!!!!!!

Saints-Tigers · 09-05-2010, 08:25 AM

Felix Jones is one of those guys I ranted about recently. He's going to give you decent production behind a poor line, but if you get a monster line, he's going to break so many big runs its going to be crazy.

He just said hopefully. We all know there is a fairly big chance that the move to Cincinnati does nothing for him and he continues to be a bust, but why would he hope for that?

You could maybe get Aaron Curry for the right price although you dont appear to have a high #1 so that probably isnt going to work. Pete seems to be in a fire sale mode.
