They worked on this deal the whole of yesterday, which explains the lack of moves by the Saints' front office on the first day of free agency.

I don't know much about this guy. Ok he's a long snapper but does he play Guard, center or tackle the other 95% of the time?

He drinks gatorade on the sidelines 99% of the time - I can't even remember him taking snaps in the preseason for any other purpose than to be the LS.

Actually no. He only played LS in college. He was recruited to Coloradeo purely to snap.

Thats a resigning. A good one. We haven't had any problems with the longsnaps and I expect that to continue.

Special teams signings are always unsexy (unless its a great returner) but still very important to the longterm succes of a team.

True, and I didn't mean to belittle his signing - just look at what happened with the Raiders last season during a game where they lost their LS.

in other news Bernard Pollard was just released by the Ravens. Wouldn't mind giving him a look see.
