Can we get a list of our guys that have expiring contracts and will be FA's next year? Im busy at work right now and cant research it.....

I'd vote for making a serious run at Nate Clements or Asante Samuel to play at Corner.

Then I guess we should draft a DT, LB or C.

But I have total trust in Coach Payton. Whomever he drafts or signs, I'll be fine with.

Sign, Asante Samual...Draft "Poz"...

We need to start building a solid linebacking core. Fujita should stay, but we need some more solid play on the outside. We also need a ball hawk safety. Someone who is always in the right place at the right time, to make interceptions. We have not created enough turnovers this season.

I just read somewhere that Charles Grant will be a free agent next year.

Isn't it a change of pace to anticipate the free agency market knowing we have a team that players are actually salivating to get on? :hump: Who doesn't want to play for a coach of the year, offensive juggernaught with a smashmouth D? Who doesn't want the adoration of loyal fans of the Saints caliber? I think like Saintsfan, that our free agency this offseason will be momentus!! :crow: :hump: :band: :saintsfan: :band:

oh yeah, I think we should pick up that Grant guy's contract, too. For old times sake.. :wink:

I want to draft fans who focus on this season when the team's in the playoffs with a bye. Let's see how we fare against the elite to figure out the deficiencies.

I agree with this and hope it helps us land Adalius Thomas. Having him, Fujita, and our other LBs will make us hard to run on. Hopefully we can get a solid CB in FA and draft some young secondary players. Our CBs are thin so we need to beef that area up.

Hollis Thomas is in the last year of his contract are we going to resign him or go in another direction?

No Draft talk until after we take the big prize! :-P Seriously, draft all depends on who comes and goes during FA.
