little harsh on Arrington, I'd say jury is out. Casillas is worth it for the right price.

With the increased expectations, player costs, and the ability to source quality free agents... Players are going to have to show up and preform PDQ, we cant afford to let players take years to develop.
Gone will be the days when players are around for 3 years and never break the starting line up but make the 53... Unless someone is brought in from the outside because we had multiple injuries at one position, we should not be in week 15 and see a player on the field and ask "who in the hell is that?" |

If Toon gets more playing time this year than Arrington expect Arrington to be gone next year. |
Im surprised how little we are paying Ingram.

Keep in mind... Ingram is about to go through his first NFL camp! He had no rookie camp.

Any time people start to freak out about dudes with contracts that are coming up down the pike, I always remember that right after the lockout we had a ton of free agents up that year, really a lot, and everybody was freaking out -- I mean it looked just impossible, like it was time to pay the piper and the ride was maybe over -- and Loomis found a way to make it work. Except for crazy stuff like the Olin Kreutz experiment, we did pretty darn good that year.

Jimmy Graham present contract
Jimmy Graham Tight End7/28/2010: Signed a four-year, $2.455 million contract. The deal included a $665,140 signing bonus. 2012: $540,000, 2013: $575,000, 2014: Free Agent My thoughts on what will happen if Jimmy keeps playing to his potential. In 2014 Brees cap hit will be 18.4 then explodes after that due to expected TV deals, Brees is cap friendly until 2015. Either Jimmy is offered a new contract next year to squeak the bulk into a salary cap friendly year, or he is franchise tagged in 2014. The FT for 2012 was $5.4 mil.... Next Years TE FT will be around $7.175M Reports that Rob Gronkowski being the highest paid TE in hostory are wrong... He is 5th of the top 5. Jason Witten, Dallas: $7.4 million/yr, $18.5 million guaranteed Vernon Davis, San Francisco: $7.35 million/yr, $23 million guaranteed Antonio Gates, San Diego: $7.235 million, $20.4 million guaranteed Jermichael Finley, Green Bay: $7 million, $1 million guaranteed Rob Gronkowski, New England: $6.9 million, $18 million guaranteed Rob Gronkowski breaks mold with Patriots extension - NFL.com |
Yeah, there are only a handful of guys on that list of free agents next year that the organization should even consider bringing back. We could survive without most of them.
|
It's going to look like this many FA's will happen almost every year.
|
Jimmy's contract needs to be hammared out and ready to go at the end of the year. JMO

Quote:
Other than JG, no way we use the tag on anyone else next year: Bushrod, Ellis are not top 5 players. Maybe Morstead? |
Quote:

Next year will actually be pretty easy as far as Saints' FAs are concerned as there really aren't any absolute must haves on that list - well maybe Morstead, but I'm not willing to risk another thread debating his worth. ;-)
Bushrod should be gone after this season as he'll probably want a bigger contract than the Saints are willing to give him - or should - because that O-line Kromer has implemented is highly guard driven and Bushrod can be replaced. Galette, McBride and Casillas are all potential re-signings, but as was already said by others - the jury is still out on those guys and the coming season's performances will probably determine their future. De La Puente might return if he plays as well as he did this past season and Drescher hasn't made any mistakes with the long snaps, so he'll probably be back as he won't be looking for a big contract anyway. Amaya, Hall, Higgins and Tanner are all intriguing young players who might just get a new contract if they are able to play to their potential. I'm more of a fan of Hall than most here seem to be, because he has been a ST standout, which he was also with the Packers before that and why McMahon wanted him in the black & gold. While having two FBs on the 53 man roster isn't really ideal, Hall doesn't really play FB, but is a special team stud, who the coaches seem to like and want in their line-up. The Saints might need to use their 1st rounder on a LT in next year's draft or then again they might find another "diamond in the rough" from the Big 12 North. Lets just hope that Marcel Jones is coachable enough to become the starting RT in 2013 dropping Strief to be a backup, because that right side of the line has been in trouble and without the stellar play of Evans it would've been a disaster on many occasions.

I also think the Brees deal sends a message to the Football World that the Saints DO BUSINESS and make deals happen. Great for free-agency. It's why we attract players like Lofton. |
