Saints flawed, but answers don't reside in Atlanta or Miami - David Gladow - New Orleans Sports

The Saints are scheduled to meet with Thomas on Tuesday, and while it may seem like a good idea on the surface, he'll need to come cheap for the move to make any sort of sense.

There's a truism in sports -- bad teams are made up of bad players. And if the Saints really want to take the next step and make a Super Bowl push next season, they'd be better served spending their money elsewhere ... on players who can actually make a difference.

The Saints do need difference makers, that is for sure. Still, a lot of decent players get cut from bad teams. The reason is once a team bottoms out a new coach is usually brought in. That new coach has a little bit of a window where winning is not necessary. So if a core player does not project to be a core player when the team starts to get good again, it's usually best to release him and start fresh. For teams like the Saints, who already have many of the pieces in place for a Super Bowl run, it makes perfect sense to get a guy who will give you a good season or two.

A little to generalizing don't you think.
