Re: Bryant McKinnie LT

It seems that there will be a lot of one year signings. The Teams aren't handing out big paychecks. There are a lot of vets not drawing any interest.Prices are dropping. I think that we have. made offers and said respectfully. Take it or Leave it.

Damn, wanted Butler and McKinnie. McKinnie still has another year in him, he held up against that 49er defensive pass rush. Get McKinnie cheap and pay a little for a stud LB like Butler.

Dang it seems like not that long ago McKinnie was holding out for the Vikings for his entire rookie season. Where does the time go?

Re: Bryant McKinnie LT

hey guys I'm new to the board, I've been reading some of the post and I finally feel like I've found a place with true Who Dat fans. With that being said I think we should look into Sebastian Vollmer or Eric Winston..I'm not sold on McKinnie

No money, McKinnie is cheap ans defensive needs are mandatory. When you have the worst defense in the league you have to make changes.

...and you don't think there's already been quite a lot of changes with the defensive unit as a whole?

I'd certainly take either Vollmer or Winston over McKinnie, but I just don't know if the Saints' FO is really looking at filling the LT position with any of these guys mentioned.

Really, they made a bunch of changes by signing 1 CB and 1 LB, other than that that's the only changes that have been made. I forgot restructured a few washed up veterans big undeserving contracts. Rob still needs pass rushers, I don't care how many corners they sign.

You don't think the Saints wouldn't take either of those two guys for a LT, who's the one player on the saints team that the team goes as he goes ? Yea you're right, Drew Brees. So,lets depend on a rookie to protect his blindside. If they could afford either of those two guys and plug a few more holes on defense they would be all over Vollmer.

How about changing their defensive coordinator?

How about changing from a base 4-3 defense to a 3-4 base defense?

How about finally seeing waste of space and cap players like Ellis depart?

When did I ever state that I thought that the Saints wouldn't take any and all of those OTs mentioned if they could afford them and fit them on the active roster?

I merely stated that I don't know what the Saints' FO's plans are for replacing Bushrod as the LT, and I think that's probably true for 99% of the posters here - accounting for the slight chance that some FO members are trolling around on these boards.
