Another questionable first round pick.

He'll go on to have a Pro Bowl career with another team. Just not us. Isn't that how it works with our DEs?

Probably

Nah….that’s just guys they let go to keep former first round picks around instead. Davenport is still playing the same position he played with the Saints…..IR.

Not dogging on Turner, just never see him. The biggest ability is availability.

Yep. And it’s asinine to suggest that folks don’t want what’s best for the team, when they’re upset that our first round pick at edge cannot get or stay on the field. A position we desperately need production from.

Some players just seem to be injury prone, or unable to play thru what others are able to (not suggesting that for Turner’s current injury). A few years in it seems that Turner is just unable to stay on the field, for whatever reason. It sucks. We all want him out there to help make the team better.

As I always do, I’ll pull for this player to be able to get on the field and make plays, but I won’t count on it.

Is he back or something?

 

[town123]

He reminds me of T-Rex. Hurt for every year and not available, and then in his Go season he will excel. Argh.

Go back and read threads since DA became HC. There are plenty of threads and posts that want what might not be best for the team just to see DA get fired. It's asinine to think otherwise.

These guys need better shoes.

Or better turf.

What was he wearing flip flops? how does that even happen!

 

[Clintonrebel]

What’s crazy is how many guys we might get back over the Christmas stretch. I know many are hoping we tank, but it could get interesting. I’d rather win than play for playoff seeding. I’ve seen too many teams do that for decades.

We could use the help with pass rush. And we could use a first rounder to pan out.

 

[Deuuuuce]

Sounds like he worked his butt off to get right and is anxious to get back on the field. He was looking much improved this season before the injury.

I Wonder how Kendre Miller is progressing and if he will return also. Jamaal Williams been ineffective really all year. We could use a boost.

Is P.Turner’s status day to day or year to year?

Not trying to be funny but didn’t he go down in the first game of the year? Maybe I misremember. Speaking of Turner when you say he looked much improved this season.

I read he was making waves in camp and i thought he looked good preseason. I hope he sees time when he gets back. We need a young pass rusher so bad.

 

[webster]

I heard he was related to
Davenport and the Saints didn’t know it.

Another wasted pick. Who was responsible for this decision?
