We wouldn't cut him until his suspension is over is my bet...

If there is no injunction then I'm sorry to say but the Saints should let him go.

How much is he worth against the cap this year and/or next?
6 million? 10 million?

Vilma: 4/20/2012: Signed a two-year, $9.3 million contract. The deal included a $1 million signing bonus. Annual $100,000 offseason workout bonuses are available in each year. 2012: $1.6 million (+ $600,000 roster bonus), 2013: $4.8 million (+ $1.1 million roster bonus), 2014: Free Agent

I just hope these nuisance cases don't backfire. Vilma has declared war, but logic and justice won't be factors in this NFL.

The Saint probably should have/would have let him go anyway. I have ever since they got Lofton.

They must value him, we just signed a contract with him in April, which I forgot about.

Look, Vilma is one of our field generals. Our defense is better when he's on the field. I hope he gets better, gets past all this and gives us one solid season before retiring.
