NFL Rumors: Jermon Bushrod Is No Longer A Top Priority For The New Orleans Saints

One Two Three throw the ball. Charles Brown at LT and Strief at RT is scary! Just may happen.

I'm not really happy about this. I know the interior line is the most important part of the Saints protection scheme but you still can't plug just any scrub in at tackle.

I appreciate what Bushrod did for the team, But...
Maybe now the team can get a lineman that can block the edge on his own and Jimmy Graham won't have to stay in or chip on third down.
Then we get our TE back.
We'll be fine. Just like Strief, De La Puente... even Goodwin... We'll find another guy and Brees will make him look like a pro bowler.
You can't pay everyone...

But he's Drew Brees... he can't be blamed for anything
I mean I don't blame him. He's only had a 60 million dollar contract with the Saints so he needed his big pay day. Families have a hard time making ends meet off 60 million dollars..

1. This is a rumor...not a foregone conclusion.

2. If we lose him fine, if anything that'll force Payton to run the ball even more to protect Brees. Which i personally think is a good thing considering the number of RBs we have.

3. Please stop cryin about Brees' contract. Yes its a lot of money but we would all be sitting here cryin about how we don't have a capable QB if the Saints would have let him walk. Cuz if it wasn't gonna be us then he would have got paid by some other team more than willing to break the bank. And we would be stuck with a horrible defense AND offense.

This is why you don't "JUST PAY THE MAN!"

Drew's contract is gonna hurt in more ways than one.
