An ealier report stated that the New Orleans Saints had offered free agent tenders to three players they are hoping to retain throughout free agency. Those players are Lance Moore, Jeff Charleston, and Jermon Bushrod.

On top of signing defensive tackle Shaun Rogers and agreeing to terms with kicker Garrett Hartley, the Saints actually stayed really busy on Tuesday by offering tenders to 10 players in total. Not all financial terms for offers were disclosed by the team nor how long each was for.

Saints players offered tenders on Tuesday:

RB Pierre Thomas
OG Carl Nicks
TE David Thomas
S Usama Young - third round restricted free agent tender
S Roman Harper
DT Remi Ayodele
K Garrett Hartley
WR Lance Moore - second round restricted free agent tender
DE Jeff Charleston
OT Jermon Bushrod - second round restricted free agent tender

Again, the NFL and NFLPA's Collective Bargaining Agreement expires on Thursday so it will be a shock if all or any of these deals get signed before then. That's excluding Hartley of course who is said to be signing his new five-year deal on Wednesday.
