Free Agency...

(1) NT Damon Harrison (NYJ), William Penn (Iowa); Height: 6' 4"; Weight: 350 lbs.

Likely to command around $5mil/year

(2) DE Malik Jackson (DEN), Tennessee; Height: 6' 6"; Weight: 290 lbs.

Has suggested coming to the Saints?!?

(3) RG J.R. Sweezy (SEA), NC State; Height: 6' 5"; Weight: 295 lbs.

Could cost approximately 5 mil/year with few Guard options and a demand for the position (Wished we'd signed Boling last season instead of Browner)...

"Plenty of buzz" around J.R. Sweezy in free agency, per report - Field Gulls

(4) LG Tim Lelito (NO), Grand Valley St; 6' 4"; Weight: 315 lbs.


(5) TE Ben Watson (NO), Georgia; Height: 6' 3"; Weight: 255 lbs.


And it all starts to come together...

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

Clog up that middle and things get better off the edge. I'm really hoping the Saints front office is looking hard at this guy.

Re: 2016 Saints Free Agency

I haven't seen any talk about maybe trying to bring back Tyrunn Walker. Everyone seemed to agree that letting him go was a mistake and he'd fill a need for cheap.

Walker was great until two seattle players broke his leg. Disgusting cheapshot...

True... I forgot about that. Hopefully his recovery is going well and he'll be able to be the player he was pre-injury.

I'd also love to bring back Glenn Foster. I don't know why we cut the cord so quickly on him either.
