Saints Most Indispensible Players, 1-5

Attached Thumbnails · 01-19-2011, 11:19 AM

A year ago, we put this list together as the Saints were coming off of a Super Bowl.
New Orleans was heading into free agency with the league at its back and rules in its favor – because of the collective bargaining agreement coming to an end, free agents that otherwise would have been unrestricted were suddenly restricted.
In other words, the Saints’ Indispensible 10 were fairly easy to see and even easier for the team to hold onto.
This year? Not so much.
The Saints have more than 25 players who more than likely will be unrestricted once the league and players association come to terms on a new CBA.
It’s a little tougher to figure out No.’s 3-10. I’ve got a fairly good idea who No. 1 and No. 2 are. There’s really no drama in those two.
And remember, this is one man’s two one-hundredths of a dollar. The list is for discussion purposes. Leave (healthy) comments below.
So, with that in mind, away we go…
