The cost concerns me, we'll see what a "home town discount" actually does for us, if it is true that we're actually going to get one.

That last thing I care about is cost of getting any player. Bring him in.

I hear ya & agree but at some point, HB is gonna just have to start lowering his demands. There are other teams out there with the cap space but no one has budged. Not even the Rams

.

I do recall reading an article from Underhill a while back stating that HB is willing to sit it out through training camp (someone will get injured) if he has to but I don't foresee him getting the money he wants.

I'd love to have him, however at the end of the day ... it's all about money. Hopefully, the numbers are close & the front office brass can make it work. It's obvious the Saints still have a legitimate interest in closing the deal.

To be continued

Honey Badger would be cool for sure, but I'm worried about length of contract and amount of guaranteed money. How much longer can he remain productive?

This statement make 0 sense, so no matter how it cripples our teams ability to sign additional talent, no matter how it cripples us with the CAP going forward well heck let's sign him, after all he's a LA product, and it all important we have the #1 safety prospect whether or not this is our greatest need currently? Nope.

Myself I've been glad we haven't been over paying either with salary or draft picks like a lot of the dumber teams have been doing this offseason.

Sir Loomis needs to ante up on this one and handle it out of his own black and gold billfold..

He's made alot of money here and with all of the hair loss he's endured due to the financial acrobatics he's put on full display..He still deserves no slack!

I just read that the Eagles GM said they are pretty happy with what they have at safety and don’t appear to be interested in Tyrann that much which appears to leave only us. My question is, is why are we the only one that seems to be interested in him....or is it that Saints and Eagles are the only two he was interested in?

It's all about the Benjamins ... HB wants more than teams are willing to pay. Maybe his price just got lowered?

There's a huge benefit to getting him in early for all the offseason programs. If I'm DA, it's critical that Tyrann be 100% integrated ASAP
