Who Dat News: Horn Out, Arrington In

News: Jersey numbers have been handed out to the New Orleans Saints' drafted and undrafted rookies, and Adrian Arrington will wear the infamous number "87." The jersey numbers for the Saints' 6 draft picks are as follows:

#90 -- Sedrick Ellis
#22 -- Tracy Porter
#72 -- DeMario Pressley
#77 -- Carl Nicks
#5 -- Taylor Mehlhaff
#87 -- Adrian Arrington

To see the entire new team roster including the 2008 UDFA's, visit the Saints website at: http://www.neworleanssaints.com/Team/Roster.aspx

WhoDatSay: The Joe Horn era is offically laid to rest as his #87 has been passed on to rookie Adrian Arrington (aka. Pocket Aces). Hopefully, the 7th-round pick can produce in a similar way to New Orleans' forgotten son... without the cell phone of course. Also, Carl Nicks inherits a former great's number (#77). While we doubt Nicks will ever anchor the Saints offensive line at left tackle as Willie Roaf did, we are just hoping for him to replace an unnamed lineman on the right side.

I want Deuce to get #22, he wanted to buy it from Freddy T, and he wouldn't sell it.
