Four Veterans The New Orleans Saints Could Release And Their Replacements

halloween 65 · 02-13-2012, 09:49 PM

I agree with the first 2.

I agree with 1, 2, & 4. Greer, though??? He's our best CB. We cannot afford to lose him.

I can't see having to replace Greer as a good/easy thing...

There's no way they should replace Greer, he is a really good shut down corner who's numbers should be even better if the Saints had any pass rush.

I'd even go as far as stating that they should try to negotiate a new contract with him which would keep him with the Saints longer than just this next season while maybe bringing down that annual cap hit a bit. Veteran leadership in the secondary is important, we all saw that first hand with Sharper.

Henderson's future depends on what the Saints do with Colston and Meachem, and maybe to some extent on how the draft goes, since the Saints traditionally pick the BPA on their turn - they might end up with a cheaper replacement to Henderson.

Hmmm no mention of releasing some of the dead wight on the line besides Smith? Instead would rather release the best CB on our team...do they get paid to write this stuff?

Not sure I agree with Greer, but I think Ellis should be in the conversation. I like him, but his production isn't equal to his contract.

No way should we talk about Greer leaving this team.

I have no idea what you guys are reading but all I could see was a rundown of how we lost the 49ers game

The Dude · 02-14-2012, 01:01 AM

Yea Greer stays. If any of our corners go it will be Porter. Is there a way we can get something for Vilma, Smith, and Porter in a trade that wouldnt **** with our cap?
