This does not mean the saints should not entertain the idea of another punter. there are a couple that will be UDFA that are well worth a look see.

4 million dead this year, and 1.8 next year...I don't think he is going anywhere

Saints must not be comfortable with what is on the market or draft so they at least have A punter; and guaranteed money buys option of wait and see...

But I knew there was no way we were taking that big a cap hit on Morestead as tight as things were and moves still needing to be made...

Still got to make room for RFA (G Lelito and TE Hill) as well as our first round pick(s) as remaining picks won't be among the top 51 salaries against the cap...

Mark Ingram as well...

Looks like we're all set now with enough space to sign our draft class.

If we didn't make another move I'd consider this a successful offseason. Most of our acquisitions were second level FA's but they should all have important roles this coming season. We brought in solid talent to help lead this team that is getting younger and less experienced.
