Trai Turner at Saints camp

[LinvilleGorge]

Their OL last year was like some of our past OLs. Usually saying a guy was a starter is a good thing, but when the unit is an utter dumpster fire it's an indictment.

He’s had such a weird career. Shocking that he’s made 5 pro bowls and he’s about to be on his fifth team. And he’s only 30.

Ate himself out of the league.

Okung was a good player for us in the 10 games he played. Turner was a good player for us as well. This league will eat you up and spit you out in no time. 

He played 7 games. He also got hurt in two of those games playing closer to half games rather than full games, scoring basically for $13.5M we got 6 full games. We were 5-11, he was OK and he never played again after us.

We should have just been going hard after Lawrence and traded Turner for any pick, like we finally decided this year to stop ducking around at QB.

I’m shocked how many fat lazy players we had in that era. You’d think we had a GM who was just obsessed with size and ignored everything else. At least Trai and Short were motivated enough to get to their first big payday before giving up unlike some others. Or maybe that’s a bad thing. I’m not sure.

Even if we're only looking at him as a backup (compared to our current depth)?

[Ricky Prickles]

We should have had him back for a look as a cheap backup if he was willing.

Nowadays, some people just can’t hold a job.

What's the per hour ratio on this deal 

[t96]

Hate the Aints but always liked Trai despite his struggles after the extension. Really feel for him but that probably is the end of his career at this point.
