signing both would definitely take the pain from any moves we make next year on defense

Free agent OLB Victor Butler left his Steelers visit without a contract.

The New Orleans Times-Picayune has been on top of Butler's whereabouts the last couple of days. Butler reportedly wants to join the Saints, but it's unclear if they'll bring him in for a visit.

I'd love to ask the Saints FO, off the record, if Michael Huff could be figured into the plans...

hagan714

Michael Huff would be nice. $$$$ IMO but does not hurt to talk

jeanpierre

He's got to be less than Harper...

hagan714

but there in lies the the rub. Harpers carry over and length of contract is the issue. how much money do we want to tie up at the safety position?

jeanpierre

Huff takes Harper's salary slot would be fine with me...

jeanpierre

And that's thing, let he and his representation know we are interesting in having you as part of our team, not as leverage for some other place...
