wow there are a lot of big name safeties out there!

**vikes4lyfe** · 03-19-2006, 05:26 PM

If we don't move up in the draft why don't us just get a QB like brooks or Greise

I don't know i could be wrong

**pennccil** · 03-19-2006, 05:28 PM

we should get Tank Williams! hes turing 26 soon so hes not old at all

Definitely. Plus, the dude's name is TANK. And he'd keep up the Williams quota with Brian and Moe leaving.

I would not mind if we would bring in Aaron Brooks to compete with Brad and the other QB we bring in.

Aaron Brooks

College: Virginia Rookie Yr: 1999
Ht., Wt.: 6'4", 220
Contract Status: Active
NFL Exp.: 7
Born: March 24, 1976 in Newport News, Virginia

Stats for the last 5 years

2001 3,832 yards 26 TDs 22 INT's
2002 3,572 yards 27 TD's 15 INT's
2003 3,546 yards 24 TD's 8 INT's
2004 3,810 yards 21 TD's 16 INT's
2005 2,882 yards 13 TD's 17 INT's (only played 13 games)
No home games last year for New Orleans, and I am sure that it affected everyone on that team.

I don't know if he would be a great QB for the WCO, but maybe he can be taught to prosper in the WCO.

I agree we could use a TANK

**ThaSuperFreak33** · 03-19-2006, 07:27 PM

Maybe we can get Charles Woodson cheap because it seems nobody has any intrest in him.

Nah, we really don't need a cornerback. That is probably our deepest position. Besides Winfield and Smoot, we still have Ralph Brown, Dovonte Edwards, and Laroni Gallishaw, who are all decent players and deserve some playing time. We would have to pay significant money for Woodson, and that money could be spent much better elsewhere - like a safety or another linebacker.

We cut Ralph Brown about 2 weeks ago.
