The Barners couldn't get here fast enough when the Saints didn't exercise their option on Mark Ingram.
Well now it is one of their own...bust?

The fact is he hasn't been the force he was in college. Since the Barners were all gloating about Ingram I ask the board...is Nick Fairley a bust?

Yes Marcel Dareus was arrested,but Fairley has been arrested too.

A lot of it probably has to do with being an average player and has had several issues with the law. Being average and a pain in the arse usually ends poorly.

Other than megatron and barry sanders, isn't everyone forced to play in detroit a bust?

Debatable.


They've both underperformed for various reasons.

I think that quarterbacks being basically off limits in the NFL has hurt Fairley's game. His MO,much like N.Suh,is intimidation.

They both are like hockey goons, but you cannot goon it up in the league anymore. Response thread? Sure is. When you dish it out be big enough to take the return fire.

Bills didn't use thier 5th year option on Dareus, so does that mean he is a busy also?

He's definitely not a bust. 6 sacks last year and playing in every game doesn't constitute a bust. They didn't pick his option up because they have a ton of talent on the D-Line and really don't need him. He'll end up going to a good team and performing great without Suh and others taking away some of his stats.
