Saints sign Shaun Rogers; Hartley extension

03-02-2011, 01:25 AM

This is a great move. He will likely be a starter at 1-tech drawing the double team to help Big Sed get pressure in the middle.

It also gives the Saints more flexibility in the draft. Now DT isn't a MUST have.

Personally I'd like for the Saints to look for a DE in the first round. I still have faith Casillas is the solution at OLB.

Good! It would have been folish to let Hartley go. He's really developing into a fine kicker.

I think Hartley is going to be fine. He did have his struggles, but I like the way he kept his head up and rebounded.

i co-sign to that, i think casillas is the answer and now we can take the best player available at de or rb... but i dig the signin, Roger Dat!

NFL network just reported that Shaun Rogers turned down a 6M offer from a team because he wanted to join us!!!
How good is it that players are looking at this team, like it's the one where they can do great things with a great organisation!!

Wow... 4 million. I figured it would be less with some incentive clauses built in. Nonetheless, if we get a motivated Shaun Rogers next to Ellis, and draft an effective pass rusher in the draft, our defense could get ugly... in a good way.
