I think he is going to be a hard sale for any team to take him... but someone will. Will it be the Saints \'HIGHLY UNLIKELY\' but I guess anything is possible. But what I think would be more interesting is his take on playing in the black and gold. Facing the Bucs twice a year.

Might be able to scratch KC off the list soon:

The Chiefs are checking out Sapp, the Tampa Bay defensive tackle, and may have him in for a visit. The same goes for two free-agent wide receivers, Dez White of Chicago and Chris Cole of Denver.
But their priority still appears to be nickel back William Bartee, the last of their still-available unrestricted free agents they wanted to re-sign. If the Chiefs accomplish that, it appears they will deliver on coach Dick Vermeil\'s promise that they wouldn\'t be active in free-agency if they re-signed their own.

Didn\'t know he was even considering the Saints. I too find it highly unlikely he lands here, and a part of me is happy about that.

Before we signed Brian Young, I thought Sapp was the DT we would sign. Haslett said (last season) that Sapp is still the best defensive player in football. Which kinda shows how dumb our coach is...but...

2 years ago you could have argued he was... Haslett was a bit smart why say somthing to infuriate your opponet and give them something to shut you up.

Let\'s go ahead and get him.

We could rotate him in and out of the d-line then line him up as FB or TE on offense.
He would be able to put out some crushing blocks for Deuce.

IF he signs for minimum AND agrees not to wag his toungue all the dang time, I might think it was a good signing. Otherwise, please GOD no!

I think this could potentially be a great signing, as long as it\'s done right. I think he is serviceable for at least 5 more seasons. I say sign him to a 4 or 5 year deal with a good signing bonus(so we save money under the cap). He will help Sullivan mature faster. Come on guys....sooner or later we have to make moves for marquee players, rather than hoping to find diamonds in the rough. That seems to be this regime\'s M.O. and it is hit and miss. Lately they\'ve been missing a lot more than hitting. Young is not an upgrade. It\'s top notch vereran players like Sapp that help young players realize their potential. This team seems not to want to create headlines when free agency comes around.
