Re: 2013 Saints - Free Agency Targets
Like it was suspected, the Bills tagged Byrd, so he won't be available on the market.

The few who do make it to market will likely be way over-paid. I'm growing tired of that scenario. |

Re: 2013 Saints - Free Agency Targets
IDK, I have a feeling that someone like Connor Barwin could be had for very acceptable money, especially with this year's draft being so heavy on defensive talent.

Re: 2013 Saints - Free Agency Targets
Thats a great point. But you'd think that would adjust/set their fair market value before they decided to leave or stay.

Re: 2013 Saints - Free Agency Targets
What about bringing one of the Breadline Three just released from the Clowns just for fun? Think there'd be a place for Abraham or Robinson?

Honestly, at this point in his career I would stay away from him, but who knows? He might be a fit for a 3-4 DE since he wouldn't need that explosiveness of the LOS in that position in comparison with a 4-3 DE, although I'd like to see him put on some weight if that were the case (6-4, 263). But I don't think he'd be a good pick up for the Saints. Robinson or Grimes on the other hand could provide some nice talent injection on the Saints' backfield, but there might be better fits out there than these two. |
