Saints cut Prince Amakamura...hmmm... wonder what's up with him, a seasoned vet couldn't get thru the first game?

From what I've seen, he's not what he once was. And honestly I don't know that he was ever anything special.

Cool name, but that's about it.

I understand that there are busts, but how bad was Hurney?  If you recall the whispers after draft day:

1. Marty tried to trade up to get Little.  he was nearly a first rounder.

2. Marty tried to trade up to pick #33 to get Jimmy Clausen. Could not believe it when Clausen "fell" to him.

3.  Marty traded up for Armanti Edwards, giving NE the 33rd pick in the draft.

Marty was so bad, he helped us get Cam. 

Oh, and about that--Marty wanted Darcel Darius; Rivera wanted Cam.  Rivera won the debate.

Great at picking stud 1st Rounders....absolutely dreadful at everything else it takes to be a competent GM.

Rumors said he offered our 2011 first rounder to move up to #33. Thank goodness they said no. Our 2011 first rounder turned out to be a pretty good player.

I'm not going to worry about what if's.  There's just too many variables to consider.  The fact that they are trying to cover as many of those "what if" as the can gives me some hope there's a plan at least. 

Is it a good plan though? Which is better? Having a bunch of guys that can do a little of every position or having great guys that play one position?

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
