they was? is the saints moving to a 3-4 or something? I thought the saints drafted cameron jordan.

Mario Williams is 290 like Julius Peppers is 290, as in all he's going to need to do is drop down to about 280 and he'll be as ripped as most other guys at the position are at 255.

That and when Wade was in SD, he rarely had Merriman drop back in coverage. With Ware, because Ware can cover to decent and is really great at bumping receivers off their route, he covered more.

Roy williams frankly should have been bulked up about 25 lbs and then played at LB. But after he got religion he was never much of a hitter again.

That was after he went on a diet that one summer...

That explains wanting to take plays off. (still chuckling to self)

WHAT!?! Brooks Reed and Conner BArwin should be their OLBs they are perfectly suited as passrushers. This is pretty much insane.

Jack be nimble, Jack be quick, Jack tripped over the candle stick.
Causing the shag rug to catch fire.
Which ignited his foreign and synthetic pants.
Causing Jack to stop, drop, and roll...

I'll just tip toe away from that group of candlesticks.

Breaking News: We are going to sign Jamarcus Russell................. to play NT for us.

 

[Tobal]

Breaking News: We are going to sign Jamarcus Russell................. to play NT for us.

:laugh1: you had me there...until the mentioning of NT

anyways; Mario Williams will still be pass rushing 99 percent of the time so it really doesn't matter. Hes just as quick in a two point stance as he is with his hands on the ground.

 

[Chuck 54]

I don't think Mario Williams will play 3-4 OLB...he's too big, too thick...great 4-3 DE, but not athletic enough.

I would expect him to line up at 3-4 DE most of the time and pass rush from his usual spot in the nickel, with his hand on the ground.
