2013 Saints - Free Agency Targets

SaintsBro · 03-02-2013, 09:35 AM

Dunta Robinson is one of those guys who dances around the field and celebrates like he just won the game, on every routine play, then suddenly gives up a big one. I don't see him being a fit in this locker room, but I could be wrong.

They may not be looking, but I really like Danario Alexander, he is a Robert Meacheam type reciever something the Saints sorely missed last season.

Really?!

I think Morgan was very effective as the guy who could stretch the field, and he made some really nice catches down the field, the few he dropped were mostly on shorter passes.

Alexander offers excellent size, can stretch the field adequately, and uses his hands in disciplined catches...

Smith, Phillips, and either Knighton or Hill would make excellent FA additons on defense with appropriate salaries, but can we afford anyone?!?

We're down to 10 days before the market opens!

NFL.com says that OT Jake Long, Miami is seeking 11MIL/Annum; that's more than the franchise tag for an OL for 2013 which is at $9,828,000 for 2013 per USA Today...

Value of franchise tags determined for each position

That's insane...

When I first read that Miami wasn't tagging him, I looked at an opportunity...

...then I realized Miami didn't have a bad plan of it's own - they just don't have a quarterback playing at a top 10 level, yet...

Morgan is effective; but a No. 2? I don't think so...
