It's all-time Saints team time again! Today we're talking about cornerbacks of Saints past. Below is a list of players I've researched and deemed worthy of inclusion in our discussion of great Saints cornerbacks. As usual I will leave it up to you guys, the readers, to nominate any other players you feel should be included. 

The poll will open at 6am Central tomorrow morning and will be open for exactly 48 hours, ending on Friday, July 10th.

I now open it up for any other nominations or players that you just can't believe I missed. There very well may be a glaring omission. Talk it out in the comment section. I would also love to hear some personal rumination from our readers who've actually watched these guys plays. Being relatively new to Who Dat Nation, I haven't had the opportunity to see too many talented cornerbacks.

It's time now to vote for another member to be elected to our CSC All-Time Saints team. If you missed our second wide receiver nomination post yesterday you can catch it right here. 

Coldpizza had a few other notable wide receivers but I figured we have enough on the list and none of them really have a chance of getting elected so we'll stick with what we've got. The polls will be open for exactly 48 hours which means they will close at 6am on Saturday, July 4th. You only get one vote so make it count. You can make a difference. If you've never voted in a CSC poll to date, now is the perfect time to start. Be sure to tell everyone you know to come on over and vote as well.

As always, the comment section is open for more discussion about these great players and the way things used to be.

Now back to our election of CSC's All-Time Saints Team. This time, we will again revisit the wide receiver position and choose the second of our two ball catchers. Click here to see the original nomination post, which includes the stats for most of our nominated players, and here to view the results of that election. Since Joe Horn was selected the first time around, I will assume that the same remaining players should be nominated. If, however, you feel someone was still left behind the first time around, this is your chance to throw them in the pool for possible selection.  Those remaining players still up for election are:

• Eric Martin
• Danny Abramowicz
• Quinn Early
• Marques Colston
• Wes Chandler
• Donte Stallworth

For those of you who were disappointed that Eric Martin narrowly missed being elected to our all-time team this is now your chance to right that wrong. Don't blow it.

The poll will open at 6am Central tomorrow morning and will be open for exactly 48 hours, ending on Saturday, July 4th.

It's time now to vote for another member to be elected to our CSC All-Time Saints team. If you missed our center nomination post yesterday you can catch it right here. We received some other great nominations.

I have decided to include Lorenzo Neal, Tony Galbreath, Terelle Smith, Mike Karney, Jim Taylor and Hokie Gajan in the voting so there is plenty to choose from. The polls will be open for exactly 48 hours which means they will close at 6am on Friday, June 26th. You only get one vote so make it count. You can make a difference. If you've never voted in a CSC poll to date, now is the perfect time to start. Be sure to tell everyone you know to come on over and vote as well.

Back again to our all-time Saints team. Today we're going to take a look at the memorable fullbacks in Saints history. Below is a list of players I've researched and deemed worthy of inclusion in our discussion of great Saints fullbacks. I have only nominated two players in part because I don't know too much about past fullbacks and also in part because I wasn't sure the others I was considering were really worthy. I figured the best thing to do would be to let you all nominate anyone else you feel is deserving. 

The poll will open at 6am Central tomorrow morning and will be open for exactly 48 hours, ending on Friday, June 26th.

I now open it up for any other nominations or players that you just can't believe I missed. There very well may be a glaring omission. Talk it out in the comment section. I would also love to hear some personal rumination from our readers who've actually watched these guys plays.

It's time now to vote for another member to be elected to our CSC All-Time Saints team. If you missed our center nomination post yesterday you can catch it right here. We got some other great nominations.

I have decided to include Jerry Sturm, John Hill, LeCharles Bentley and Steve Korte in the voting. The polls will be open for exactly 48 hours which means they will close at 6am on Friday, June 19th. You only get one vote so make it count. You can make a difference. If you've never voted in a CSC poll to date, now is the perfect time to start. Be sure to tell everyone you know to come on over and vote as well.

I am going to leave yesterday's Dome Patrol poll open another day in the interest of fairness but I would say it is safe to assume all four of them will be joining our all-time team as a unit. Sorry to those of you who don't agree but support is pretty overwhelming. 

So we will move on with our selection process. In light of recent news about the 2009 Saints I figured what better time to discuss the teams all-time centers from days gone by. Below is a list of centers I've deemed worthy of inclusion in our discussion of Saints greats at the position. Once again, there aren't really any stats so decisions will inevitably come down to more than just numbers. 

The poll will open at 6am Central tomorrow morning and will be open for exactly 48 hours, ending on Friday, June 19tth.

I now open it up for any other nominations or players that you feel I've not included. Talk it out in the comment section. It's a lot more difficult to find information about offensive lineman so there very well may be a glaring omission. I would also love to hear some personal rumination from our readers who've actually watched these guys play.

We continue on now with our all-time Saints team selection process and come to the linebacker position. But this is an interesting point in our quest for the best. We all know that as a unit, the Dome Patrol was the greatest linebacking corp in NFL history and they didn't achieve such great success without the marvelous play of  Rickey Jackson, Sam Mills, Vaughan Johnson and Pat Swilling. We can also probably agree there is a good chance that all four of these players would be chosen for our team if we continued on the old-fashioned way. So the question automatically becomes: Should Rickey Jackson, Sam Mills, Vaughan Johnson and Pat Swilling automatically be selected to CSC's All-Time Saints team as a unit?

In the interest of not only saving us all a lot of time but of also sparking some good debate, I would like to conduct a simple poll. If you think that we should automatically place all four members of the Dome Patrol on CSC's All-Time Saints Team go ahead and let us know. Or if you think other players like Renaldo Turnbull and Jonathan Vilma should have a chance and the fair thing to do would be continue on, as we have with every other position, and hold separate elections for all four spots let your voice be heard.

I think this is an interesting topic and should make for some good conversation. You may begin that conversation...now.
