    Thank God. That would have been so f-in dumb to give up another pick next year just to get Wells. The guy is too one dimensional. I'm sure he'll be a decent back but nothing extraordinary.

    at least knowshon was gone. i cant bitch about them not taking him now.


    but there was talk that beanie lacked work-ethic, toughness and was out of shape.

    means hes not too bright i suppose.

    Was Vontae Davis off the board by the time their second pick came around?

    Well didnt they say something about Davis having character issues, however, he is more of a true corner than Jenkins is.

    You are right, eminem. I, like you, wanted Vontae Davis over Jenkins but I can't find many Saints fans that agree with me.:huh:
