I heard he's going to miami

Yes. 1 day contract so he can retire as a Saint.

If he is a better player than we have on the roster for a backup role and can accept a diminished role and he fits within the salary cap then why not? He was on of the best players in franchise history and his appreciation of what the Saints mean to New Orleans may be th ebest environment for him.
As Jim Haslett would say "He's a heckuva player."

He's done. What DL that is expected to make the 53 would you keep Smith over?

None. DL is filled with depth.
Giving him a contract to retire as a Saints would be cool though.

yea will smith proved me wrong. i was confident hed make that team; but i guess everyone saying he was out of gas was right.
i think smith might be as good as guys like tyrunn walker, or glenn foster, and better than guys like daedridck, powell, rufus, or keyunta dawson. all those dudes look like pretty promising projects though.
maybe take him if our run defense is in dire straits

There's a reason Jim "Cheerleader Pumper" Haslett isn't a head coach in the league.

He hasn't taken care of himself over the course of his career. He was a DE playing near the side of DT weight.

He's just not a disruptive player anymore, period. Walker and Foster are. Deadrick has looked pretty good. Powell has been coming on as of late. I don't know what's up with Rufus.

Can someone with PFF access post his run defense in 2012? I don't even know if he's that good of a run defender.
Posted on 8/24/14 at 7:37 pm to 3HourTour
Of course we should.

Ok, but they might be giving him money for nothing.

As an aside, y'all been seeing the formatting of the game threads?

But he's had some terrible years with it in the past. His biggest issue was always over pursuing instead of holding the edge. He was getting better at it(maybe just because he was getting too slow to over pursue?
) Just about every big DeAngelo Williams against us was a cut back, usually to Smith's side.
His pass rush grades were all over the place. Some years good and some very bad and all in between.

Maybe if his sacks were free.

One of most over rated players in Saints history.
