Would Thomas Davis go to the Saints?.....


Keep Pounding

Recommended Posts

Paul (Knoxville): Saints getting Thomas Davis...could that be a possibility?

Pat Yasinskas: I could see Saints taking a shot on him. They have a history of taking shots on guys whose careers have been stalled by injuries or other reasons. If Thomas can get back to being what he was before the injuries, he could be a steal. But obviously that's a lot to expect from a guy who has had three torn ACLs.

Read this off the ESPN NFC South Blog.

This just drove me crazy reading it. What if we did cut Davis and he went to the Saints and had a pro bowl caliber year, Just thinking about this right now has me pissed off. I know, I know, it would probably never happen, but just reading this made my blood boil.

...but I'm sure his love for playing football and making money outweigh that 'hatred' for the Saints.

I hate the Saints, but you give me a 330k a year to play pro football for the Saints I'll do it.

Here is what he posted when KAsay was signed.

@TD58SDTM: Saints just signed John Kasay. Sad day in panther nation, see one of greatest players in team history become one of the enemy

Congrats to John and his family, but I hate the Saints.

Different point of view, Davis has already made millions.

Once again...the Big Cat is 100% behind TD. If he can play in 2012 it will be here......

Here's a quote from early January:

Q: Who do you consider tough?

RICHARDSON: Thomas (Davis). There are others but in my judgment he's No. 1.

(Davis, an outside linebacker, has torn the ACL in the same knee three times and is trying to come back.)

I saw him (working out at Bank of America Stadium Wednesday) and I said, 'Every time I see you you're in here' and he said, 'Mr. Richardson, I'm going to be in here every time. And I'm going to beat the odds.' And I believe him.

    • To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever… 
    • Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.
    • The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
