Out with LaMaga, in with Talita!
i agree with dr. astrozoom: this defense needs a big hitter back there. it's been a while since the fins have had a safety who instills fear.

Ok. I can live with you thinking that. But know this, i'm basing my comments on a.) actually having coached him, B.0 Having watched him play, C.) having timed him, D. ) watching how the Saints did the exact same to Ricky Williams last year.
I don't think most informed people would agree with you. Nor would the Pro Bowl or League office that tracks who is doing what statisitically.

I agree with this Phinfan. The funny thing is im not against signing the guy, especially at a low price and with Freeman in the mix.

Knight is an upgrade over Freeman the same EXACT way that Junior is an upgrade over Rogers. Niether one of them is Ricky Williams, but both make the team better than it was when they got there. To say he's a risky player is accurate in the same way that Sam and Patrick are risky players...but neither they nor he would be considered risky "signings" for the money we're paying them. Honestly, I think everyone here is saying the same thing...just in different ways.

Knight, 27, was a Pro Bowl starting strong safety in 2001 but didn't play well in '02 and the Saints refused to meet his asking price of between $3 million and $4 million per year

Saint Greg just came up with a plethora of objective sources citing his lack of recovery speed and vulnerability to spread offenses. Do you want more?
I would also like to remind you that "source" is a Milwaukee,Wisconsin paper and wrote by BOB McGINN who has a BAD history of not reporting all of the facts or taking comments very poorly out of context. I just wanted to let you guys know that before you read to much into it.

He also added another post on the tail end of his threads stating the sources cited as being in error "often"
