***UPDATE***
The New Orleans Saints have agreed to two-year contract with free-agent linebacker Victor Butler, according to a league source.


Butler, who turns 26 in July, played the past four seasons with the Cowboys, serving as a backup to DeMarcus Ware and Anthony Spencer. In limited action, the 6-foot-2, 245-pound Butler recorded 73 tackles, 11 sacks and five forced fumbles during the past four years.

Last season was the best of Butler's career, as he had a career-high 25 tackles and three sacks and two forced fumbles.

He has not signed with Cleveland yet. Kind of like the Nnamdi situation... just got to wait and see how this plays out.

I understand the guy is looking for the coin, but if someone outbids us for they can have him. Yes Butler has tremendous upside but he needs to realize that he hasn't been a full-time starter. If he's going to be over paid, I hope its not by us.

We've missed out on much better FA's before. I'm not sweating Butler.
