Jimmy Graham or help on our offensive line??

The Dude · 12-22-2013, 09:21 PM

It could come down to a choice between the two. I am sure we will draft along the line, but doubt we will get a year one contributor. Do you think Loomis will try and go offensive line in free agency, Michael Orr maybe? If so where does that leave us with Graham?

Either way Brees has got to restructure. If we had a decent offensive line we would be 1 seed right now.

I'd draft O-Line in the first round, and sign Graham...

Remember that Vilma and Will Smith are almost guaranteed gone. That's a ton of money we can save. I'm hopeful that will be enough to help us keep Graham and rebuild the O Line.

We can do both

Somewhere along the way let's teach Jimmy that it's easier to catch a football than whine about how someone denied you the opportunity. Extend your arms and it's YOURS.

O-Line first and third draft picks. Secondary on second pick.

I don't think there is anyway possible that they would let Jimmy walk. I think both Brees and Colston will restructure their current deals.

Too early to make a judgement call on the draft. Normally that will change with who we get in free agency.

Brees and Colston MUST restructure - Brees' contract alone has crippled any ability to acquire and improve the team through free agency...

I like Michael Orr the person, but I don't think he is any better than what we have.

Every time I see Orr play(not often), he seems to be struggling

Are we talking about Michael Oher? Big Name, Big Salary Cap Hit, Small Reward...
