Anyone who says Fred Thomas is the worst player in franchise history has been watching the Saints for approximatly 3 years.
I'd go with Sullivan or Shuler as at least 2 of the worst.

My previous defense of Fred Thomas stands:
quote:
FAIL.
Fred Thomas was a solid corner, the best we had for a few years, until he got old and injured. We kept trotting him out there though because we refused to draft or sign a CB besides Jason Craft who couldn't beat out Fred Thomas. Thomas played with a f'n cast on his hand for half a year. Fred Thomas was a solid corner who played injured, was a tough sonofabitch and looked bad at the end of his career because he was old and injured.
FRED THOMASOne helluva Saint.
quote:
The Saints signed Ashley Ambrose, Fakhir Brown, Dale Carter, Steve Israel, Kevin Mathis and Jason Craft who could never take his spot. MM was the only trade they made who came in and could start for them over Thomas. all the other guys sucked.
Besides the epic signing of those guys, the Saints haven't drafted a corener back since 2002 until they picked up U. Young and T. Porter. (By the way, that was Keyuo Craver in the 4th round) Before that it was Fred Weary in the 4th round of '98 and before that it was Alex Molden in '96.
Don't blame Thomas because he was better than what the Saints could sign or draft.
