Wow. Another good signing. Solid, not spectacular.
I don't have a lot of faith in the over-spend, over-the-top signings.

Re: Saints Sign Ben Watson, Re sign Humber

He always been one of the most athletic TE's in the league... always underutilized in the passing game. While being 32 years old, he's still in excellent shape. I thought he should have easily had a better career receiving the football.

I like the move and I doubt it was expensive. This also bring another veteran high character presence in the locker room.

This is not a re-tread signing.

Re: Saints Sign Ben Watson, Re sign Humber

I like this pick up.
Save having to sign a TE in the draft,there are a couple of 6/7 rounders im hoping go undrafted so we can pick them up and have a look.
Could be a god bit of business.
