Darren Sproles to the Saints has some leg?
 
The San Diego Union-Tribune reports free agent RB/KR Darren Sproles will choose between the Chargers, Eagles, and Saints.

A decision is expected to come "soon." The Saints are looking at Sproles as a more explosive replacement for Reggie Bush, and the Eagles have been connected to both players all along. The surprises are that the Rams aren't a finalist, and Sproles is willing to return to San Diego. We get the feeling the market for Sproles wasn't as strong as he had hoped after two straight seasons under the franchise tag.

We have had a pretty good KR since the Beerman.

I don't feel we "need" another back, however; I wouldn't mind seeing Sproles in the B&G. As long as he's not too expensive...

I think they want him mostly for KR/PR, put him in the WR slot.
But i think he will stick with the chargers at the end of the day.

where is BOLTFAN when you need him??????

I think he stays there too. After all... they've given him a LOT of money as a backup RB and KR the past couple of years. He may be inclined to stay b/c of loyalty and familiarity.

But IIRC he wasn't happy at all about being franchised.
