The saints are tweeting out asking for followers to vote for Sam Mills.  I know we've had posts about this but can't get them to pull up in search.  I know the player chooses which team he goes in as but does anyone know if Sam Mills family has made a decision?  Any chance he goes in as a Panther?   It won't affect my vote, I already voted for him as saint or Panther.... just curious.

They are whittling a list of 108 players to 25.  Lots of names on their that I totally did not agree with so I came nowhere close to voting for 25.  But the second link is a good article about why Sam belongs without gawdy stats.

It's not baseball. He'd go in as a Saint and Panther. Just like we technically have just as much ownership of Reggie White in the Hall of Fame as do the Packers and Eagles.

Yep. In the NFL you don't go in as a member of a certain team.

You don't go in as a member of a particular team.  Reggie White has the Panthers logo under his name same as the Eagles and Packers.  http://www.profootballhof.com/players/reggie-white/

Would love to see Mills in.  My question is when he gets in the HoF (I'm speaking it into existence) who would do his speech for him or have they abolished deceased HoFers having someone do a speech on their behalf or "introducing" them.

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      Its completely and utterly bootlicking at this point.  If you cannot acknowledge that using 3 picks on a rb with a torn acl in the 2nd round isnt a bad pick then you simply havent a clue about football.  Sorry man it is what it is.  And its insanely laughable you are trying to strawman this argument using other players.  And what fuging facts are you bringing that is justifing morgan using 3 goddamn picks on him?  I cannot wait to hear that.

      ESPN's Top 10 Impact Rookies(non-1st Round)

      Scourton's interviews are telling to me that it's only a matter of time before he could really put it together.  His limitation tool-wise that I see is in his bend, but at the leaner size, it looks like it wasn't a problem at Purdue.   He has a good moveset and reads leverages very well (vet level well).  Plays both the speed/quickness (great change of direction) and has a power game with good hand usage.  Moves from what I've seen in my digs: I'm seeing cross-chop, fake crossers into bull, bull rush, spin (his preferred move of choice), hand shuck.  He's not unrefined by any means.   If he can do 2 things---I'm feeling confident from seeing his interviews that we have a real dude on our hands: 1) Diversifying his moveset/how it's deployed - Over-reliant on some, but again, he has a growing palette.  And is already great with his hands so things are in-place to coach up. 2) Developing a counter moveset and starting to play the chess game with an OT - He's very good at reading leverage, knowing when to change things up during a play.  But NFL coaching should start to teach him how to really create a plan based on an opponent.  What to throw at a guy first, how to confuse with fakes/counters, etc.  How to play against these tackles as a game progresses.   Overall, he has some things that give me serious optimism: Run Defense, speed moves, power moves, he's super young and has the size/length.  When you really spell it all out, I think we should get excited.  Temper expectations from a stat sheet standpoint, but he should be able to go in and make an impact.
