    That was a long time ago, sheesh. Best back in NFL history IMO. Imagine that guy on the 49ers or Dallas of the same time frame.

    I agree best nfl back I ever saw. But maybe he was so great because he had to deal with a sub par team... maybe putting him on another team and we don'tget to see his escapeabilty..

    So who's gone?
    QB - Etling? Harris? Nope. Harris could transfer and play FCS or sit out and play at a ULL (like Jennings)... For some reason I doubt he will be eligible as a graduate transfer.
    RB - Fournette
    WR - Dupre? Chark? Dupre is badly in need of boosting his stock. Charke will be All-SEC next year.
    TE - None
    OT - None
    OG - Malone isn't even close to there yet.
    C - None
    DT - LaCouture could get another year but I believe he announced that he would not.
    DE - Herron and Clark are going nowhere.
    ILB - None
    OLB - Donnie Alexander isn't ready and I believed is undersized to get drafted regardless.
    CB - Paris, nope.
    S - Battle? Nope. Adams is gone. He will be a top 5 pick.

    So really, all we are waiting for is the inevitable with Adams...

    It would be huge to keep Adams. I would love for him to hang around for another year. nothing like a veteran to help coach up the newer guys, not to mention the guy is a stud

    Another huge keep is Moore. Guise needs to send this guy a thank you card in advance for next year.

    Dorsett was damn good. Hell, I'm old enough I saw Jim Brown play. He's in my Top 5 of all time great running backs.

    Sweetness was amazing but nobody did more with less than Barry.

    True or not, Fournette is not the solution to the Saints problems.

    Barry was beyond special! On the other side of the spectrum, i was always a big fan of Earl Campbell.
