Fairley about to cash in after another strong season.

[RobBase]

The New Orleans Advocate's Nick Underhill reports the Saints and impending free agent Nick Fairley have mutual interest in a new contract.

After playing on back-to-back one-year deals with the Rams and Saints the past two seasons, Fairley is looking to cash in with a multi-year deal after another strong 2016. He recorded 6.5 sacks and 47 combined sacks, hits, and hurries, grading out as PFF's No. 8 pass-rushing interior lineman. Underhill thinks Fairley could be seeking $9.5-10.5 million annually on his new deal. The Lions seriously fucked up letting Fairley go for Ngata and Walker.

I was always a fan of fat Steve Urkel... in Detroit.

Walkers gonna be awesome.

One of these weekdays, that isn't a Monday or Thursday.

You just wait and see!

He's got nothing on our 50 year old Ngata.

Thats 1 more good season than he gave us. We got 1 season that lasted 9 games where he played well. Talent was never a question. No excuse for his performances all those years being next to Suh though.

Glad he finally made something of himself though. Maybe he finally matured. He figured out that Fat, high and stupid is no way to go through life.

Good ol' Saint Nick.

Notice how only Mayhew tortured Nick w silly and pointless "weight control" bs. There was something personal there. That was the year Mayhew tried to trade the whole draft away to move up to 5 and take Patrick Peterson. Fairley (like Suh), was a Schwartz pick. I bet Mayhew wanted to take Titus Young at 13 instead.

He never liked being in Detroit and being in the cold. He was a down south boy at heart. Enviroment played a part I'm sure.

But we play indoors. 2 extra games a year (CHI & GB) were in the cold somewhat. The rest would be the same as any other team.

Titus told his HS coach that he is better than CJ. The coach told him to get real.
Probably told Mayhew the same only Mayhew believed him.

Titus HS coach > Mayhew.

Doesn't mean you don't have to live and drive around in that snowy ass shit hole.

I'm talking about lifestyle.

Sometimes it seems like Fairley is too lazy to even feed himself.

Maybe thats the real reason his weight fluctuates up and down so much.

Let's not get hasty.
Looking at his midsection.
He had no problem mustering up the energy to get to the buffet line.

When he signs a big contract, he can start doing his Haynesworth impression.

Haynesworth got crabby when the Redskins moved from a 4-3 to a 3-4. He went from rushing the passer to eating up blocks for everyone else, and he hated it. Stats plummeted as a result.

Damn, a team pays you 100 million to play DL for their football team and they aren't playing football the way HE considers to be right? Boo fuggin Hoo.

Skins were a dumpster fire back then. He had every right to be angry. Imagine if we spent 100 million on a guy then played him out of position? We'd be discouraged too.

Bring back Fairley. We need him bad.

We will need a lot of guys at DT. 3 guys on our roster are FAs now and Ngata next year.
