    Would he be a backup. I didn't read the article.

    He would be great for tackling those imaginary ball carriers.

    I was going to ask if he was any good, since I haven't heard anything about him since the catfish story blew up, but I guess that tells me all I need to know. This has all the signs of another Loomis FA letdown, Maybe he's an upgrade over Laurinitis, but that's not really saying a whole lot.

    A friend of mine played with him in SD.

    Here's what he says about Manti:

    -injury prone
    -great practice player
    -teams run the ball at him when he's healthy b/c he does not like playing the run
    -"beast in coverage"
    -Good leader and physically impressive
    -"Will become a locker room cancer if he doesn't like what's going on tho"


    Take that for what it's worth.

    Well another Sean Payton project. If hes got that attitude he'll be gone after one year.
