Well, first, you made my point by saying we wouldn't save much by letting Jenkins go. That was precisely my point, JP. you want us to go after Huff, but we would have to get rid of someone. I don't think Jenkins will ever move back to corner, unless it's as a nickelback, maybe. But even if he does move back there, then we surely have to cut one of our corners. Personally, I think one of either Greer or Robinson is going to go if we sign Asomugha, and I'm ok with that. But since you're main concern is how do we deal with these contracts, I'm simply telling you that it's going to be an issue no matter what.

I'm fine with getting Huff, if it came down to that, but he's no Darren Sharper in my opinion. I'm not arguing with you that he's better than what we have. I still maintain that we can't afford him. You're telling me that they should bring him in and ask him, but I feel very confident that the Saints have contacted his agent by now, and they probably already know what he's asking for.

I don't know why you gave me an article about how bad our defense was. I know this. I said we either roll with the safeties we have (meaning it might be financially necessary) or we might draft a safety. We have a lot of holes to fill on defense, and unfortunately it's not all going to be fixed at once.

You somewhat repeated my point when you said we could save by acquiring a need in sending one of our corners as compensation. I agree with this, and that's why I said the only way to save is to find a trade partner. But who is going to give us anything more than maybe a late round pick for these vastly under performing players?

This is why I say the Saints can't overpay for anyone they sign right now. Because we're going to be eating some dead money as it is, and we can't simply continue to backload contracts. We've done that before, as you've mentioned, and look where it has put us.

The last thing I want to say is that I don't read much into tabloid-style information about Nnamdi not eating with his teammates. Maybe he felt like the others didn't care enough on the field and he just didn't want to be around them? Or maybe, he just likes to eat alone perhaps? I can't believe anyone would buy into that story as being important. And with Hollis Thomas (who never played with him) citing unnamed sources, there isn't much reason to even believe the story is true.

We'll see what happens, though.
