Randy Mueller is Back

He turned the ditka saints into a solid team by landing vets. I dont think he last much longer

Super

Super interesting about Roger Rosengarten. He's projected to be a late 2nd round/early 3rd round guy. If Mickey listens to Randy, We could be targeting him for 45, or even packing some of the 5th rounders together to get a late second rounder or early third, or we could trade back a few spots from 14 to pick up a 2nd or 3rd rounder to target Roger Rosengarten. That would get us a highly valued OT and give us the option to go BPA in first and second rounds.

Yep. Really interesting. I recall people talking about the bookend Tackles at Washington during the season and how they had the best pair of OTs in the country but one the draft process started you only really heard about Fautanu.

The NFL profile on Rosengarten seems to be that he is physically limited in terms of quickness and would probably be better off at Guard in the NFL and then others say he has great foot quickness and movement. So, who really knows?

Replying to my own post but, his athletic profile seems to fit what the Saints have always liked and what the new scheme likely needs. Obviously he has to put this on the field, but it looks like he would be a good get from the athletic profile point of view if we can get him in the 3rd or later. They might even look at him in the 2nd.

Hello Sedrick Hodge

Resume bump. UFL merger resulted in job losses. Can't hurt plus it's work. Good looking out by the saints.

Decided to read up on Mueller’s firing back in 2001 and found this paragraph funny.

Hand-held computer devices, email…Mueller was so fancy!

It's funny to look back, but yeah that stuff was new at the time. I suspect it was an especially new concept to Tom Benson and the Saints organization. Mueller was probably using a Palm Pilot.

I love the timing. Kudos to the OP, and to Scooter for breaking the news.

I recall thinking of him as they guy that was finally going to make the Saints a modern organization and build a winner. And, I recall the day he was fired being totally depressed and at a loss for why they would fire the best GM we ever had. It was quite awhile before I found out why he lost his job.

So what was it?
