He just tweeted ...

Who Dat

Methinks he may have re-signed.

That would be good news. He is a solid backup and I like the sets when he comes in and we run the ball.

Keeping most of last years team intact is always good news, especially with the lockout this year

yea he signed

I hope he catches a TD pass this year.

Saints agreed to terms with OT Zach Strief on an undisclosed contract.

The five-year veteran didn't draw a tender from the Saints in March, but he ended up unrestricted anyway. He's likely returning to back up Jermon Bushrod and Jon Stinchcomb at a salary closer to $1.5 million.

I personally believe the Saints would be better with him starting at RT. I think Stinchcomb is a good player and a great locker room guy. But, I truly believe Strief is a better RT. He's a mauler in the run game and has held his own at LT facing some great pass rushers like Peppers.

I still remember him coming in for Jamaal Brown when we faced the bears in 2008, he really did a great job.
I agree that he is a solid tackle, let him battle for the starting position and the better man will get the starting spot.

Stinchcomb will probably be healthier and therefore a better player than last year. I like when we bring Strief in the game......something good is usually going to happen.
