NINE INTS. Captained the freaking secondary during our superbowl run. Helped us to start out 13-0, our best "season" in the history of this ball club. He played hurt, when he could have sat on his BUTT, and still got paid. The "honor", should go both freaking ways.

I'm amazed at how ONE superbowl, changes the entire mind frame of a teams fanbase.

And it's not a sign of desperation to sign great players, that are good at what they do. That is a sign of wanting to win.

What is "Fair Market Value" for a future HOF'er coming off of his best and Super Bowl capped season?

Put yourself in the Saints position, you're about to pay a hit or miss, sparingly used "decoy" 8 million for one year. How do you gauge what Sharper is worth in comparison to what Reggie Bush is getting paid? How do you compare them in regards to how pivotal they are at their position? How do you gauge them on the importance of their role played during the last season? Lots of questions..... I'm curious, you seem to have this all figured out. Is Sharper coming back at about 1/4th of what Reggie's set to get paid worth it? Why does everyone get so conservative and concerned when talking about getting Sharper paid, but no harping on Bush's ridiculous payday? ... seriously?

did you actually say, "so he should be honored that we want him back"?

why does Bush enter into every thread...Bush is Bush and Sharper is Sharper..both valuable pieces to our superbowl puzzel but not the same situation..What we as fans think and what Bush makes next year have no influence on signing Sharper

Well said.

this guy is bringing Bush-hate into a conversation about signing a guy that we all want back, but at a market price

I was kind of wondering that myself.

Reggie Bush has nothing to do with Sharper and vice versa. Can we please stay on topic for once!

I like Ice Cream. LOL

Agreed on the Bush hate. Sharper is nearing the end, so he wants as much as he can get. I don't blame him for that. The Saints are being cautious with their money. I don't blame them either. And I fully expect both sides to get this done soon after the draft.

a fair market deal is a deal in which a player is paid according to their market value. He wants more then what teams are willing to pay him if it wasnt about money he'd be signed already. The team doesnt owe him anything. A future HOF means that he's had a long career and his best years behind him. you answered your own question. Yes i did say he should be honored because again The Team doesnt Have to sign him, They don't owe him anything he was apart of a super bowl winning TEAM but he didnt single handedly win the game so you sell a cow to save the farm not the other way around, but if you can keep the cow and the farm then you do so at the right price. I understand that your excited that we finally had Great Safety Play in god knows how long but he's older now then he was in 09 (is it safe to say each day you get older) Long term plans now not short term, NO LONGER THE DESPERATE SAINTS! read that 2x
