Almost impossible to pick, but I'll throw out some names:

*Cie Grant
*Courtney Watson
*Stanley Arnoux
*Alfred Fincher
*Martez Wilson
*Ronald Powell
*Khairi Fortt
*James Allen
*Sedrick Hodge
*Davis Tull

I think Cortney Watson is the most disappointing and Cie Grant was the most wasted potential.

Grant was labeled a savior at LB. That was back when I was active on Saintsreport.com.

There's only been one first round LB selection (who is now on the bubble of being cut in his 3rd season). And he's not on your list. I think that Mr. Anthony may take this title if he gets cut. He may take it even if he doesn't.

Anyone remember that buck toothed LB from Tennessee we drafted in the first round in the latter years of Bum Phillips.

Alvin Toles is the guy, terrible.

Go deeper. Toles was Dick Butkus compared to Les Kelley and Rick Middleton.

In 1974 the Saints took Ohio State LB Rick Middleton with the 13th pick in the draft.

With the 14th pick in the same draft, the Broncos took Ohio State LB Randy Gradishar.

The rest is history.

And BTW, I didn't list Anthony b/c he's still on the roster. He still has a SLIM chance to redeem himself. If he's cut, he's there too.

I guess I'll go with Fincher just cause he was a 3rd round pick the year after the Saints took a 2nd round stab on Watson.

I don't remember Fincher playing in a regular game at all. Preseason.. maybe.. but screw Haslett for letting Keith Mitchell and Mark Fields leave and never replacing them anyone worth a shite.
