Thanks shane. I was devastated at years end when the saints cut Fletcher and Kickett thereby condemning the saints to the wilderness. Those guys were worth 40 to 50 possessions between them per game.

Both went on to have fine careers but with other teams.

Tim Allen - another name to add to the long line of potential topline Saints players who had their careers prematurely ended by injury.
