Baun v Werner
Tight End: Trautman and then....who?

Keep the hungriest four big uglies and keep five DEs (Cam, Davenport, Granderson, Turner, Kpassagnon...

Could even trade Kpassagnon for a DT...

Sign LB Kwon Alexander and keep Demario, Kwon, Hansen, Ellis, Baun, Werner...

Sign Golden Tate...

You think the Saints front office even called? I think Tate's price tag will be too steep for the black and gold.

Tate is likely asking for more to attend training camp, and his price will come down as season begins...

I'll bet they called everyone and everyone called them. It's called due diligence. I doubt there's a GM or agent that leaves any stone unturned. or they'd be gone soon.

It all comes down to taking two partners to dance.

Very aware of due dilligence and as far as "called everyone", that's not always accurate AG. Ask the Honey Badger about a "call".

I'm not talking about players. I specifically said that "I doubt there's a GM or agent that leaves any stone unturned". Mathieu's agent is Tom Condon and I seriously doubt that Condon did not contact every possible landing spot for his client that didn't contact him. The player isn't going to be aware every every single call his agent makes or fields. I don't doubt that he wasn't directly contacted by the Saints, especially if any preliminary call went nowhere.

Agree. I wanted us to sign him each of the last two offseasons.

What doesn't kill ya makes you stronger; Cooks or Tate, either would be the WRz we need opposite Callaway (until @CantGuardMike gets back)...
