Unrestricted free agents
Malcolm Jenkins S, $4,032,000 bye Jonathan Vilma ILB, $3,832,500 bye Zach Strief RT, $2,575,000 Maybe bye if we can find equal talent For less Brian De La Puente C, $2,023,000 Bye Jimmy Graham TE, $1,489,285 Must sign. Injury probably makes him more affordable than he would have been Parys Haralson OLB, $1,253,125 Try and keep Charles Brown LT, $880,000 resign for league minimum Tom Johnson DE, $775,000 Not sure on this one Robert Meachem, $715,000 Bye Kenyon Coleman, $620,000 I would still like to see him. Depends on his rehab Will Herring LB, $605,000 Maybe keep Ramon Humber ILB, $580,000 Keep Restricted free agents Joseph Morgan WR, $556,334 keep Rafael Bush S, $555,000 keep Jed Collins FB, $555,000 keep Luke McCown QB, $555,000 see what we can get for cheaper Bryce Harris RT, $480,000 try and keep Kyle Knox OLB, $405,000 don't know who this guy is Keyunta Dawson DE, $391,765 would like to see him play Trevin Wade CB, $169,412 not real familiar with him Shayne Graham K, $110,588 we need to find a younger option |

Eric Winston starting to look like he was overpaid all along - pass Roger Saffold could play both Tackles, but can we afford him?!? - bump Hakeem Nicks would not be affordable with what we're paying Colston; he's got a little Italian in him (Fragile); but a definite talent - pass Alex Mack would be an A+ addition to this team; question is could we afford him?!? After signing Jimmy Graham, tendering Rafael Bush, he would be the guy I'd love to sign; a center named Mack - make it happen Saints!!! Walter Thurmond's next suspension will be for a year - pass... |

Re: Free agents 2014
2014 Roster
QB - Brees, Griffin RB - Ingram, Robinson, Cadet FB - Johnson WR - Colston, Stills, Meachem, Toon TE - Graham, Hill OT - Armstead, Strief, Harris OG - Evans, Grubbs, Lelito C - DLP Griffin will win the #2 in camp. Thomas and Sproles are aging and expensive. With a true balanced attack, the need doesn't fit the cost. I expect the Saints to draft a WR early. Graham will most likely be franchised. Strief is very valuable because he can play either tackle and will be re-signed to a fair deal. DLP will re-sign a fair deal unless someone gets stupid and overpays for him. The Saints will draft an o-lineman or two late. DE - Jordan, Hicks, Foster, Galette NT - Jenkins, Bunkley LB - Lofton, Hawthorne, Butler, Reddick, Johnson CB - Lewis, White, Sweeting S - Vaccaro, Bush LS - Drescher P - Morstead K - The Saints first pick will come on the defensive side of the ball unless a top WR or T falls. The Saints need a playmaker at OLB, CB and S from the draft or free agency. They usually go cheap in free agency, so hopefully they'll get lucky in the draft. Due to the numbers, I can see Jenkins or Harper coming back for another year as a Saint. I lean towards Harper because I think Jenkins will get more money elsewhere. Overall, I've left 15 spots completely open for competition. Hopefully, Loomis and Co. will work some more magic and find some real talent on the cheap as they've done in the past. |
Re: Free agents 2014
I think Cadet is gone, Sproles retires, Thomas stays, and Andy Tanner gets moved up.
