Keep getting better? As a sports fan in general Grubbs signing saves money and replaces Nicks with a top guard in the league so good move Salute to Mickey Loomis, LB needs to be addressed, DT bring Rogers back hes big, lost Meachem I don't hate him for it the offense is an onslaught he gets his touches yeah he dropped passes just like everyone else on the wr corps he's got a Super Bowl Ring and he just got paid hes Charlie Sheen right now goes to a team nice weather Good QB with Rivers.17 was a burner made some of the biggest plays I've seen in Washington. Hes gonna go off with Philip Rivers. Whos replacing him? Arrington? Is he gonna finally do something? Joe Morgan is he ready to go and healthy? Whos out there available I dread seeing Andy Tanner on Sundays! So to say they got better I don't know about that, we may loose a corner in 22, lost 17, Franklin is gone Rogers is gone and MOST OF ALL WE STILL GOT SCOTT SHANLE! Whom ever is,the,replacement for those players needs to to be an upgrade. We had no pass rush haven't for a long time now we need to get after it on the Dline
the safety position needs to play better to many big plays given up when you have an offense that lives in the endzone if these are corrected then I would say the Saints got better but we're months away from the hall of fame game and opening day which I hope is the Giants in NY so I can go to the Game!

RAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH (╮°-°)╮┳━┳ (╯°□°)╯ ┻━┻ *flips table* GET SOME!

We only replaced a G with a G for.
True, we haven't upgraded a single position... yet.

I do have faith that it will happen though.

But the Saints haven't de-graded either.

IMO, Ben Grubbs in New Orleans will be more effective than Carl Nicks in Tampa.

One position the Saints ugraded tremendously was DC!!

I think that will go down as the biggest new addition of the whole off-season!

Carl Nicks is considered by most NFL analysts as the #1 OG in the league, and Ben Grubbs is considered #2.

He blocked for Ray Rice, so he knows how to run block.

I see it as a cheaper, parallel signing!

Is there an echo in here?

Grubbs coming to the Saints takes a good guard and makes him better once Brees rejoins the team...

It's kinda like my kid's video game - she's got this bad @$$ character that finds a magic hat and the hit points and damage points geaux up 50%...

Brees is magic...

Stocking a team with FAs never works. The Saints have done well with their FA's but they also have a good mix of players they build on which is critical if you want to have a good team. I'm glad the Saints don't have a lot of cap room. Too much means a team is rebuilding which doesn't happen in a sytem like the Saints. Tampa is signing a lot of good players but the odds of that creating more W's is not in their favor.

We haven't lost a step so far. Let's keep our fingers crossed.
