re: Alltime Saints Jersey # Countdown to First Preseason Game

Kilmer, Everett, & Meachem

Meachem here the longest, part of the Golden Age SB winning team. Plenty of props. Methinks he'll have his biggest year ever in SD.
His most memorable play for me-


Never was a big Everett fan. It was the downside of his career (didn't play again after NOLA) and the flaming out of the Mora era as reflected by his 17-30 record as a starter.
His most noteworthy play-

He did get a MBA after football and start his own investment firm.

Kilmer was quite a story for an expansion pick. He was 5th in Heisman voting for UCLA in 1960. Drafted by the Niners he even played some RB. He was the guy at QB for the first four years of the Saints. He wasn't that good (47/62 TD/INT) but was scrappy as hell. He was one of the most notorious drinking and carousing on Bourbon St. players ever. He had his real success after NOLA leading Washington to a 50-23 record in 8 years.
