Remaining Free Agent Wish List

LKelley67 · 03-17-2006, 10:00 AM

if one has to go if bennett is signed it has gotta be antowain even though i thought he was great in the role he played last year.

i'm starting to chuckle remembering the bufoonery of the haslett era. how bout keeping ki-jana carter around after he had gained a whopping 72 yds in his previous 5 years in the league. haz always came across to me as if he thought he could see things in players no one else could see. like giving up 3 draft picks for tebucky jones LOL.

Antowain Smiyh and Anthony Thomas are both UFA. We do not have either of them on the team. All we have is Duece and Stecker.

So either we need to pick up a back or draft one.

RB 19 Antowain Smith UFA 9 6-2/232 Houston New Orleans

This according to Fox Sports, he's already a free agent.However he's still listed on the Saints roster. But, it sure is nice to see a certain QB not listed.

SaintsJam · 03-17-2006, 10:30 AM

I also feel that we need to fill quite a few holes through free agency. I think that LB, CB, C, OG are probably the most pressing. The rest I think we would be able to get through the draft. I also feel that DT is now very thin in the free agent market.

Bellow are some free agents I do like:

Seth McKinney C Miami
Trey Teague C Bills
Maurice Morris RB Seattle
Jonathin Wells Rb Houston
Na'il Diggs LB Packers
Tommy Polley LB Ravens
Will Allen CB Giants
Reshea Townsand CB Steelers
Stephen Neal OG Patriots
Tom Ashworth OT Patriots
Senaca Wallace QB Seattle
Jaime Martin QB Rams

I would be happy and feel any of these guys could contribute and not break the bank. I feel that Bennet is hurt to much and will ask for a steep contract, as well as Arrington, Woodson, and Peterson.

I've liked Wallce since he was at Iowa State. Doubt Seahawks will let him go though. He also lined up at WR

Well, if we're going to do this, then I'm going to go ahead and throw out my expert opinion and say we should draft Chris Barclay. One of the biggest snubs from the combine, he just had a workout at Wake Forest this week:

The NFL teams on hand were the Bears, Bills, Chargers, Colts, Giants, Panthers, Ravens, Rams, Saints and Steelers. The temperature was in the low-60's with winds between 10 mph and 20 mph. The outdoor portion of the workouts were conducted on Wake Forest's FieldTurf.

Barclay, Wake Forest's all-time leading rusher and the 2005 ACC Player of the Year, was not invited to the NFL Combine in Indianapolis last month. Tuesday was his first workout with NFL scouts since the Las Vegas All-American Classic in January and he posted impressive numbers. In the weight room, Barclay displayed a 42-inch vertical leap and a 10' 6" standing broad jump. In the 40-yard dash on FieldTurf, Barclay ran a 4.35 with the wind at his back. Against the wind, he recorded a 4.4 40-yard time. The fastest time among running backs at the NFL Combine was UCLA's Maurice Drew, who ran a 4.39 indoors.

And here's a bio on Barclay:

i would like to see about gettin keyshawn... i know u guys will think i am crazy but hear me out... we dont really have a possession guy... i know u guys will say joe horn but he is not really a true guy u can send over the middle... joe takes a serious amount of punishment and putting him on the outside is much better for his ability.... keyshawn isnt fast and is a possession reciever and he has great hands... putting him with joe n dante and devery henderson will give us speed on the outside n size on the inside to go along with our big ass TE hilton

TheDeuce · 03-17-2006, 11:18 AM

I've been saying that exact thing pak (see the thread I started entitled Keyshawn Johnson), but then the haters came out saying how awful it'd be. I think with the right coach he can shut his mouth and just catch the damn ball.

pakowitz · 03-17-2006, 11:22 AM

i dont really care if he runs his mouth... he an joe can B/S each other... but he can catch the football and is fearless goin over the middle an he suits our wr corps... we dont really have a big physical WR and he would give us that... it would make life hell for the defensive secondary...

4saintspirit · 03-17-2006, 03:48 PM

I think Arrington would come here - He would be the man and that is what he wants to be.,

SaintsJam Rookie Join Date: Oct 2004 Location: Ponchatoula, La Posts: 22	I also feel that we need to fill quite a few holes through free agency. I think that LB, CB, C, OG are probably the most pressing. The rest I think we would be able to get through the draft. I also feel that DT is now very thin in the free agent market. Bellow are some free agents I do like: Seth McKinney C Miami Trey Teague C Bills Maurice Morris RB Seattle Jonathin Wells Rb Houston Na'il Diggs LB Packers Tommy Polley LB Ravens Will Allen CB Giants Reshea Townsand CB Steelers Stephen Neal OG Patriots Tom Ashworth OT Patriots Senaca Wallace QB Seattle Jaime Martin QB Rams I would be happy and feel any of these guys could contribute and not break the bank. I feel that Bennet is hurt to much and will ask for a steep contract, as well as Arrington, Woodson, and Peterson.
