I think he was about to end up on team anyway sooner or later glad to see we are making moves on some of these guys who we could use instead of just sailing along with what we got.

I don't know but my pick would have been MM. I hope we didn't go with CM because on a money issue but hey its a buisness.

I'm just glad that we got some depth at corner. He should be a good addition to our secondary. He was a pretty good cover corner and I'm hoping he'll be able to pick up GW's system pretty quickly. I think Jenkins would get the majority of the playing time.

So if he's so great, why was he out there again?

Somebody straighten me out here... Why wasn't he signed? Was it purely money vs age? What's up with that?

Do ya'll think he will start?

I cant stand seeing Gay getting burnt for another week. It reminds me of the past 2 years.

Probably $ ...... they said he was due to make $8 million ...plus now that we're the hottest team ... he wants to be part of the fun.

Can't remember where I saw this, but it was said that he was close to signing with the Raiders earlier this season, but he didn't want to come back until he knew he was 100% recovered from knee surgery at the end of last year. Now he's ready, and apparently the Saints feel he's ready, too. I agree with SmashMouth here. He signed with not just a contender, but an undefeated team. Personally, I hope this works out. The guy was a beast of a corner before, and anywhere close to that would be an improvement over Gay, Torrence, or moving Young back to corner.

Yeah...prefer to leave Young at safety...if all is well health-wise, this is a pretty solid pickup...
