PFW whispers
 

Sources tell us to keep an eye on ex-Pitt Panthers QB Tyler Palko, who was signed by the Saints after going undrafted. We're told Palko could be Sean Payton's next Tony Romo, the former undrafted signalcaller whom Payton molded into a Pro Bowler while an assistant with the Cowboys.

• Word out of New Orleans is the Saints were eager to sign DE Charles Grant to a long-term deal because they did not want Grant turning into a cancer in the locker room like ex-Saints DE Darren Howard became after having received the franchise tag in consecutive seasons. The Saints signed Grant to a seven-year, $63 million deal about two months after designating him as their franchise player.

Fair enough. I don't care why they signed Grant, I'm just glad they did.

And I don't know about Palko. I mean he had some good success a few seasons ago, but has fallen off since. I don't know if that's because of a lack of help around him or if that one season was a fluke. Let's hope Payton can coach him up.

I hope Palko is legit, 5 years from now

I am with you on that frankee. In no way am I ready to push Drew aside.
