Sure, but you get what you pay for.

Here's the top guys at that position. Josh Hill is ahead of Ertz, supposedly. and we could've resigned him, but didn't. Why would we spend more $ now than what we could've spent with Hill?

We let Dan Arnold walk. He was coming around for us.

Someone will be let go we can use. We just need to have patience.

No timeframe on when we'll get Adam back. Hill retired and apparently lost his fire & I don't blame the Saints for allowing Dan to walk.

Juwan is fresh and learning a new position + he's too light for blocking. I had high hopes for Nick V but he's nicked up too.

Saints need a proven guy ... not necessarily Zach but someone with similar skill set.

This article suggests four guys we could trade for.

Hill would not have retired if he were still a Saint, I reckon. But I don't blame him either not wanting to learn a new system, especially one in Detroit.

Ertz may get cut if his snaps are as low as they say it is. We don't need to pick up his hefty cap crunching $8.5 Million salary, even IF we have $11.5 open.

The CB from Denver makes more sense.

Maybe we call Pederson back for now?

There's always Tim Tebow.
