Former Saints LB Jo-Lonn Dunbar Announces That He's Signed With Rams

Free agent linebacker Jo-Lonn Dunbar announced on Monday that he has signed with the St. Louis Rams. Dunbar was a more than capable replacement for New Orleans Saints linebacker Jonathan Vilma this past season when Vilma missed several games because of injury.Dunbar posted this on his Twitter account: "I'm excited nervous & happy to 2 ba a Ram. Im blessed for the opportunity. Id like 2 thk god 1st NOLA & Saints Thk u 4 making my dreams come true. "2 STL winning is everything & the only thing. I'm ready to give my ALL each & every day. Word hard, Hard work." The Saints signed two linebackers earlier in free agency - Curtis Lofton from the Atlanta Falcons and Chris Chamberlain from the St. Louis Rams. The Saints now have lost four starters from the 2011 season in free agency: receiver Robert Meachem to the Chargers, cornerbacker Tracy Porter to the Broncos and guard Carl Nicks to the Buccaneers.

Dunbar leaving stunned me. Good player. Coming into his prime right now.

 

damn....wanted to keep him. he stepped right up while vilma was hurt

p.s.

 

well heck...

 

guess he went to start. thought he was going to blossom here.

 

I loved this kid this sucks.

 

Rams got them a linebacker that is for sure. Would have rather let Vilma go and keep him. He is just coming into his prime and was ready to take over.

 

Makes sense now
