2013 Saints - Free Agency Targets

In about a month, FA will be underway...

I expect Will Smith to be the first cap casualty...

Probably a re-structure or a waive and re-sign.

Danno, I can't see him playing in 3-4 defense; he's been as fast as a Nose Tackle the past five seasons which he doesn't have the size, ability to play...

He played in many 3-4 packages as the RDE under GW. He's not the player he used to be but he could play that RDE position OK.

Papz pointed out in other threads that he's just barely under the prototypical size for one.

I'd welcome him if the price is right. I do think he'd get better offers as a 4-3 DE though.

Since the draft if deep in D-linemen I would just as soon see Smith go some where else and be average at best.
