this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I believe we are paying him close to the minimum. Chargers still owe him $5 million for 2013 in a guaranteed contract...

Add to that all the other talent they've let walk out the door: Drew Brees, Darren Sproles, Michael Turner, Vincent Jackson.
Crazy, crazy, crazy. |

Re: We tried to trade for Meachem??
Who could the Saints have traded? Surely not Mark Ingram, since the Bolts already have Ryan Mathews (I realize Mathews hasn't set the world on fire, and has had some injury problems; but the same can be said of Ingram).

I sent an email to Triplett to see if he knew anything about this, maybe we'll find out.

Re: We tried to trade for Meachem??
I seriously doubt we did. We didn't and still don't have the money under cap for what his contract would have cost us. Picking him up as a free agent was the only way we could bring him back.
