Our other UFA's
 

Kruger, 31 $3,000,000
Lelito 27 $1,700,000
Harper 34 $1,100,000
Evans 33 $1,000,000 (although we paid him a fair amount more when we cut him, so that # is skewed)

Moore, Hightower, Sanford, Cadet, & Mauti, (and 5-6 others) also are UFA but made less than a million.

Who do we keep?

Will anyone sign Kruger? Can't imagine for anywhere near 3... Lelito has been gifted a starting job and just can't keep it. Moore is probably tops on my list

Moore, Hightower, Cadet, & Mauti,

Re: Our other UFA's
 

I'd move on from Kruger. And for me, it's not just about "sack" numbers. We need a maniac off the edge who can disrupt the timing of a QB... consistently.

Re: Our other UFA's
 

I'm so glad the Browns outbid us for him when he left the Ravens, SP was doing everything he could to sign Kruger.

Re: Our other UFA's
 

Lose Kruger, Lelito, Harper, Sanford........oh, and definitely Cadet needs to go.

Re: Our other UFA's
 

and Kruger if he agrees to take a pay cut. 1.5. adds depth that is much needed and he knows our defense.

Re: Our other UFA's
 

I would add Evans to the keep list, yeah he is old but no replacement is on board yet.

Re: Our other UFA's
 

I'd apply the same for Kruger and the others...

Until you get a better player, why move on just to move on?

Is the player a distraction? disruption? disharmonious?

Re: Our other UFA's
 

Paul is probably a great guy inside the Saints locker room but JP we need dawgs on that D line (specifically coming off the edge). Sean Payton has already said publicly that getting a pass rusher is priority #1. Expect them to bring in an upgrade this off season opposite Cam and also draft a young stud (Thomas, Barnett, Foster etc).

Addison, JPP or if you want to push all of your chips forward bring in Melvin Ingram :p.

It's time to get Brees back to the promised land before he is done.

Re: Our other UFA's
 

Well, keep in mind that we signed Kruger, injured, as the season opened, no training camp...

Bring him in for a modest vet contract; even with his age, he's still a starter that just needs to be in a rotation

He does have a season now in the system and it would give some continuity for the defensive line...

And I'm not saying we don't spend a high draft pick and/or make a run at one of the two top defensive ends in FA...

You really have to have three good defensive ends rotating to be a championship-caliber roster and w/o Kruger we have one (Jordan)...
