Possible reasons Sharper on Market

Most Saints fans would think the Saints would be crazy to not resign Darren Sharper. I would love to see Sharper return as he is definitely the best current FS we have on the team. The Saints are possibly in perfect position to compete for several Super Bowls over the next decade; so I could possibly see Loomis' logic in trying to revert back to the younger players in an attempt to prepare for the long haul. Malcolm Jenkins has potential to be a star at the position, as seen on several plays this season. His pass reading skills are top notch, and may eventually end up being the better choice in a year or 2. Sharper is the proven player though, so the decision is sure to disappoint a lot of people if it does happen.

I don't think Sharper would be out signing DVD's if the FO wasn't talking about resigning him.

If we dont sign him we may move up in the draft. I believe Berry is a beast and would stat right away

I think they are just showing him that nobody will pay him the 6 million he wants, and whatever he is offered they will pay. If the highest offer he gets is 3 million and he was asking for 6 and the Saints sign him they save themselves 3 million.

Ding Ding! That's it! Exactly! He really has an inflated sense of self worth. This is the only thing that bothers me about Sharper.

Look, he was awesome this year, and a big reason we made it to the big game, but I really doubt he is going to put up those numbers again.

Aparently, Loomis doubts that too and isn't going to sign him to a contract for what he did in one season.

I hope they bring him back, but at at a price that is reasonable (which is much less coin than he wants).

Could it be that the Saints just want to get younger.

I think Sharper will come to his senses and realize that the Saints are not going to pay him $6.455 million for one season. When he realizes his true value, and the fact that GW's defense is exactly right for him to do his thing, he will come back and sign a 2 or 3 year deal with the Saints.
