Are we?!

I have no idea what the current salary calculations are for the projected 53 man roster, and if the lack of cap room is really the main reason why they haven't been able to reach an agreement with Brees.

I for one am pretty sick of talking about Brees and I find it rather refreshing to talk about other potential signings whether or not it's actually possible for the Saints to sign anybody else at the moment.

If someone like Winslow would be available for around $2.5M-$3.5M/year for 2 to 3 years, it would certainly be something I'd think the FO would have to give some serious consideration to regardless of the situation with Brees.

Winslow signed with the Seahags.

Winslow traded to Seattle after Tampa signs Dallas Clark

Well, there goes that...

The 'Hawks only gave up a "conditional" pick for Winslow, which does reiterate the fact that teams were not willing to pay a high price for him with all of the uncertainties surrounding his health.
