2012 NFL Offseason

Ok start off with our players:

Big Buck Keepers
Drew Bress - everything hindges on this deal
Carl Nicks - lets hope Drew takes front end deal or we may loose him. maybe another 1 year deal? then long term?

Will the dollars be around?
Marques Colston - injuries kill him
Robert Meachem - flash in the pan
This is the biggest effect on the draft i think. What will happen?

Reasonable...

As we all know it is a FA long list in 2011 for the saints and a lot has to happen in order to make things work out. Players need to sign, others need to take pay cut and still other need to sign extinctions and restructure the final years of their deal.

Round 1

Sergio Kindle, Texas, SLB/DE, 6-4, 254, 4.54

This is the player to target in the 2010 draft for the Saints. Now I believe the Saints must find away to move up in the first to get him. I do not see him getting past the Patriots at 22 if the Falcons pass on him at 20. So I am going to play with him being there at 32. The Saints have a ton of WLB on the roster and it is time to get Scott a back up. Forget about the 2009 season as a DE. I look at the 2008 hen he played...

Football Officials and Their Duties

Football officials... the men on the field we all love to hate and complain about. But without these keepers of the rules, a football game could not progress with any sort of structure or sanity.
