Re: 2013 Saints - Free Agency Targets
Take Connor Barwin off the list.
Sounds like he is just about to sign for the Eagles |

Re: 2013 Saints - Free Agency Targets
The Saints are high on free agent OLB Victor Butler's wish list.
Butler is currently visiting the Steelers, and they're reportedly pushing hard to land him to replace James Harrison. If he makes it out of Pittsburgh, then the next stop would likely be New Orleans with old defensive boss Rob Ryan. Butler, Martez Wilson, and Junior Galette would be a solid trio of young pass rushers. The Jets are reportedly targeting Butler, but the interest may not be mutual. Source: New Orleans Times-Picayune We landed the number 1 guy on our list... might as well get the other one too. |

Re: 2013 Saints - Free Agency Targets
If the BS about Ryan wanting CB Nnamdi Asomugha is legit, then we will have two new cornerbacks to start the season with several good candidates to man the nickelback...
What would really send this thing to another level would be to sign a safety that can cover like FS Michael Huff, OAK... This would either allow you move Jenkins to SS and recoup the Harper cap hit by releasing Harper or you could pass on the Lone Eater and keep Harper at SS and pair Jenkins with Lewis at the corners... We still need an OT, a backup QB, another TE, and a better DE than Will "paid & done" Smith... |
Re: 2013 Saints - Free Agency Targets
2013 New Orleans Saints Defense (Projected)
LDE Cam Jordan, Greg Romeus, Jay Richardson NT Broderick Bunkley, Akiem Hicks RDE Will Smith, Tom Johnson, Tyrunn Walker WLB Jon Vilma, Chris Chamberlain MLB Curtis Lofton, Austin Johnson SLB David Hawthorne, Martez Wilson JLB Junior Galette, Braylon Broughton CB Jabari Greer, Keenan Lewis, Corey White, Ryan Steed FS Malcolm Jenkins, Rafael Bush, Jerico Nelson SS Roman Harper, Isa Abdul-Quddus, CB Patrick Robinson, Dion Turner, A.J. Davis A couple of things of things jump out: Lewis is replacing Greer, not Robinson; if Nnamdi signs, as rumored, both Greer and Robinson are definitely gone... There is no way in hell Will Smith plays OLB; can the team stand pat with him at DE in the 3-4? With a friendlier cap number, Smith is tradeable to a 4-3 team, but with the Saints doing the espirit de corps/loyalty thing, that's unlikely... Can Martez Wilson overtake a Healthy Hawthorne? We are lacking in depth at the Middle Backer spots... Michael Huff is a talented safety that can cover (move to CB to help with a lack of depth for the Raiders) and is available... With a change of scenery and a winning atomosphere, Huff should be seriously considered and courted heavily by the Saints... |
Re: 2013 Saints - Free Agency Targets
2013 New Orleans Saints Offense (Projected)
QB Drew Brees, ??? RB Mark Ingram, Pierre Thomas, Darren Sproles, Chris Ivory, Traveris Cadet FB Jed Collins WR Marques Colston, ???, Nick Toon, Chris Givens, Saalim Hakim SR Lance Moore, Joseph Morgan, Andy Tanner, Jarrod Fayson, Preston Parker TE Jimmy Graham, Michael Higgins, ??? LT Charles Brown, Marcel Jones LG Ben Grubbs, Eric Olsen C Brian de la Puente, Ryan Lee RG Jahri Evans, Andrew Tiller, Ricky Henry RT Zach Strief, Bryce Harris Wow, we have some serious needs, holes on offense: No Backup Quarterback... Charles Brown at Left Tackle? Hey Drew, want to get away? I love Strief's heart, I just don't like his week to week starting... We have no proven receivers after Colston and Moore? Can Morgan perform consistently? Guess we kinda gone miss Devery afterall? Can see where Edelman would be a huge addition to this and special teams unit... This logjam at Running Back needs to be addressed... We're gonna miss David Thomas even with his concussions - Thanks Dave for your game! |

Well, we can look forward to the Mark Ingram v. Steven Jackson discussion this fall... |
Re: 2013 Saints - Free Agency Targets
Brad Jones GB ILB maybe? lets see if gets out of Tenn. I am surprised we have not herd his name
Victor Butler, DE/OLB, Cowboys still no word on his visit to pitt? those two young proven 34 LB would be a great addition securing our LB corp and setting my mind at ease about the LB we have now. some what. |

Re: 2013 Saints - Free Agency Targets
Dummervile has been cut.
He screwed up,sent the restructured contract back 7 mins after the deadline.The Broncos have cut him and taken a big dead money hit and might not be able to re-sign him |
Re: 2013 Saints - Free Agency Targets
They're saying he's might re-up for 8 a year... which is probably the most anyone will be willing to offer him.
|
Re: 2013 Saints - Free Agency Targets
He agreed to restructure for 8ml then didnt get the contract faxed back to the Broncos till 7 mins after the deadline and they cut him before the deadline.Costing the Broncos nearly 5ml in deal money according to Albert Breer
Albert Breer @AlbertBreer Some math: $4.869M in Bronco dead money from Elvis cut. Reworked cap charge w/paycut woulda been $9.623M. So maybe Denver offers Elvis <$5M? |
Re: 2013 Saints - Free Agency Targets
If Freeney makes it out New England, he'll probably become a Bronco then.

Re: 2013 Saints - Free Agency Targets
Thats my guess,with Dummerville to pats

Re: 2013 Saints - Free Agency Targets
The Pittsburgh Steelers had a small group of visiting free-agents Friday, but all left without a contract. Sounds like a theme in the AFC North today.
According to Gerry Dulac of The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, running back Beanie Wells, outside linebacker Victor Butler and tight end Kellen Davis all finished their visits without any contract talks with the Steelers but that doesn't rule out the possibility of negotiations later. http://espn.go.com/blog/afcnorth/pos...e-agent-visits looking good it's reported also he is looking for around 5 mill a year. which afer seeing JR contract i say thats fair. i do not like either but market is market |
Re: 2013 Saints - Free Agency Targets
signing both would definitely take the pain from any moves we make next year on defense
|
Re: 2013 Saints - Free Agency Targets
Free agent OLB Victor Butler left his Steelers visit without a contract.
The New Orleans Times-Picayune has been on top of Butler's whereabouts the last couple of days. Butler reportedly wants to join the Saints, but it's unclear if they'll bring him in for a visit. Source: New Orleans Times-Picayune |

but there in lies the the rub. Harpers carry over and length of contract is the issue. how much money do we want to tie up at the safety position?

Re: 2013 Saints - Free Agency Targets
Huff takes Harper's salary slot would be fine with me...
