Re: Free agents 2014
Updated 2014 roster, accounting for free agency, trades and the draft, nearly upon us:
SAINTS PROJECTED DEPTH CHART - 2014 OFFENSE QB (2) Drew Brees, Ryan Griffin, Luke McCown RB (4) Pierre Thomas, Mark Ingram, Khiry Robinson, Travaris Cadet FB (1) Erik Lorig, Austin Johnson (FC) WR (3) Marques Colston, Nick Toon, Charles Hawkins (FC) LT (2) Terron Armstead, Marcel Jones (FC) LG (2) Ben Grubbs, Senio Kelemete (FC) C (2) Tim Lelito RG (2) Jahri Evans RT (2) Zach Strief, Bryce Harris, Ty Nsekhe (FC) TE (3) Jimmy Graham (Franchise, NE), Benjamin Watson, Josh Hill WR (2) Kenny Stills, Andy Tanner (FC), Joe Morgan DEFENSE DE (2) Akiem Hicks, Glenn Foster NT (3) Brodrick Bunkley, John Jenkins DE (2) Cameron Jordan, Tyrunn Walker OLB (2) Junior Galette, Keyunta Dawson, Rufus Johnson ILB (3) David Hawthorne, Kevin Reddick ILB (2) Curtis Lofton, Ramon Humber OLB (2) Parys Haralson, Victor Butler, Kyle Knox CB (3) Keenan Lewis, Rod Sweeting, Trevin Wade (ERFA), Derrius Brooks (FC) SS (2) Kenny Vaccaro, Marcus Ball FS (2) Jarius Byrd, Rafael Bush (RFA), Jordan Pugh CB (2) Champ Bailey, Patrick Robinson, Corey White, Terrence Frederick SPECIALISTS K (1) Shayne Graham, Derek Dimke (FC) P (1) Thomas Morstead LS (1) Justin Drescher, Jed Collins H Thomas Morstead PR Travaris Cadet, Lance Moore KR Travaris Cadet, Pierre Thomas KO Thomas Morstead, Shayne Graham KEY: POS (#Likely Slots) Projected Starter Free Agent Free Agent (RFA) {Restricted Free Agent} Free Agent (ERFA) {Exclusive Rights Free Agent} Free Agent (FC) {Futures Contract} Franchise Tagged/Restricted - Unsigned Observations: Jimmy won't sign till he's ready to come to camp, so no OTA's - hope we don't see some sloppy play as he returns and a possible injury with lack of conditioning... Well, how do you like us now?!? Running Backs Thomas, Robinson are only backs under contract after this coming season... Still real thin on that offensive line... Great depth at cornerback; little thin at Safety though White could be shifted there... Bailey signing may mean we withdraw matching on Rafael Bush... Sure would like to bring Meachem back in a supporting role like this past season... Other than OLine, we've about got things reloaded...

Re: Free agents 2014
Surprised no one has asked the Saints if they'd be interested in RB Chris Johnson...

Re: Free agents 2014
I visited this thread just to mention Chris Johnson. The market on running backs has just about dried up. Wonder if we could sneak in and get him on the cheap. Restructuring a few contracts or even cutting somebody like Bunkley would give you just enough to get him something in the 3.5 million/year range which might be enough.

Re: Free agents 2014
Cutting Bunkley would leave us short with NT and only saves $1.3ml.
It was cost at least half of that to bring in another NT |

Just a thought, I actually like Bunkley a lot and wouldn't particularly love to see him gone. But that kind of speed on offense is tempting. I'm not talking about Darren Sproles shifty quickness, but actual gamebreaking straight line speed. We don't have much of that on offense these days, except for maybe Stills. In our offense Chris Johnson would be a nightmare for defenses. |
Re: Free agents 2014
I hope we find a way to keep and/or restructure Bunkley's contract. The two man rotation with him and Jenkins worked out well last season.

Re: Free agents 2014
And expect the cap space to adjust again, post draft, and when terms will be finalized on the Jimmy Graham contract...
