Free agent bits and pieces......

I don't know about you guys, but I'd give up a 2nd round pick in a heartbeat to get Roy Williams. Thoughts?

Sounds like that Haynesworth deal could get nasty if they don't get something worked out. I'd love to have him in N.O. I'd trade our first rounder for that guy.

I agree with you.

I've answered this before. The Saints should have no focus and give up nothing for any player that doesn't play defense. That means that even if the Patriots wanted to trade Brady, Moss, and Welker for next year's 7th round draft pick, the answer should be no.

I know that sounds stupid. But I fervently believe that the thought that adding any more offense to this team is a significant part of the problem for the Saints. If you've watched the Patriots the last several weeks, you can see what I'm talking about. The best offense in NFL history has been inconsistent. It's been the defense that has stepped up enough to get the team to where they are now.

Trade for Shaun Rodgers? Great idea. Roy Williams? Not a chance.

The Saints sole focus should be on impact defensive playmakers and absolutely nothing else until the defense can compete with the offense.

Sounds like that Haynesworth deal could get nasty if they don't get something worked out. I'd love to have him in N.O. I'd trade our first rounder for that guy.

Now you're talking! I'd probably even throw in some change. Proven mountain of man in the middle of the defensive line? That's a winner.

Oh we've had a very long discussion on that already.

It's probably a page or two back.

If it gets nasty, they'll just franchise him and wait it out... pretty much like the Briggs and Samuels' situation last year. He isn't going anywhere. It's amazing how night and day their defense is with Haynesworth in that lineup... the same with Bob Sanders.

Not again! I'd give up a second for a defensive back with the same talent level as Williams. Or a LB. Or a DT.

But i'll only give up that second for a proven productive defensive player.

Now that's something I can agree with.

	Super Bowl Championships: New Orleans Saints:1, Carolina:0, Atlanta Chokers: STILL ZERO Only Atlanta choked in an unchokable situation... Life is definitely good.
