Re-Signing Jermon Bushrod Saints Top Priority This Offseason?
this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; There is literally a dozen FA tackles, that are as good or better than Bushrod, on the market this year. I really hope that drives the market price down. I don't have anything against Bushrod. But I know the Saints ...

I really hope that drives the market price down. I don't have anything against Bushrod. But I know the Saints can't afford to pay anything more. This is a position where the Saints are very thin. So I'm hoping the Saints can pick up a good quality back up, on the cheap, relatively speaking. |

I used PPF's ranking. As papz pointed out the other day, they're not perfect and their rankings can be subjective but I think it shows there are quite a few good offensive tackles on the market this season. Hopefully, that will drive the market price down. https://www.profootballfocus.com/blo...nsive-tackles/ |

The PFF list you linked is for both LT and RT and is ranked based on their 2012 performance. Some have less than 3 or 4 games. |

Eight of the tackles ranked ahead of Bushrod had over a thousand snaps. And only one has under 400 snaps. And you are correct this list includes both right and left. I haven't seen a free agent ranking list that differentiates left vs. right. I'm sure we could find one somewhere or we could go through the list ourselves. But I think the point I was making is still valid, there are literally a dozen free agent offensive tackles this season that are as good or better than Bushrod and that should drive the market price down. |
