Byrd has to know the Saints can't pay him what he wants.

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

I usually hate this over-used worn out phrase, but it truly applies here IMO.

CHAMPIONSHIP!!!!

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

Interesting discussion....

Byrd or Graham? If you were forced to choose one.

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

... premature jizzing ... we need to keep Drew off his back and a few players to throw to.

Loomis is an evil scientist. The rest of the NFL hates him.

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

Byrd
The offense can be figured elsewhere.The only thing lacking in the defense last year was takeaways.More takeaways = more short fields which = more points

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

If I were making the decision; Byrd! But, I'm a defensive first kind of guy

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

How about Graham for two number ones, sign Byrd and Ware, and sign Tony G for league min.

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

Byrd.

Byrd and Vaccaro. You don't see that kind of players play together. Scary combination.

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

Very interesting question which would probably cause a 500 page thread lol

think I'd choose byrd, he's a game changer on defense. Graham is great but the offense is too predicated on him all the time, forcing passes to him when hes triple covered and when someone gets physical with him you can tell by his body language he loses his concentration and fire

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

You forgot Favre and Tebow!

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

You don't have the cojones to make that poll!

:)

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

Wow! This is nuts! I've been salivating over this guy but didn't dare bring it up because of the price.

Imagine a young, tough trio of Byrd, Vacarro, and Bush. We'd be set at safety for 5 years. I hope we aren't getting our hopes up to only be let down.

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

IF this is going to happen, I don't think he leaves NOLA without his John Hancock on a contract.

IF he does leave, I doubt he comes back...

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

Especially after being on record as saying there ain't no way no how we could afford to sign Byrd. It was a pipe dream that might actually come true.

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

Better sign him ... options are dwindling ...
49ers sign Antoine Bethea to four-year deal | ProFootballTalk

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

Vaccaro and Byrd would give us a strong backend . Pair them with K.Lewis and PROB add some depth @ CB I like that.

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

Ware's injury history scare's me. Dude is an animal when healthy but I can't remember the last time he played a season where the main story about him wasn't injury.

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

With Byrd, Vaccaro, Bush and Lewis, Jason David could have looked good!

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

Waiting for this deal to happen will be like the final minutes before Hartley kicks the feildgoal to go to the superbowl.

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

True lol

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

If we land him,it'll be like the Tracy Porter pick 6:)

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

Doubt it ... Jason David was member of a one man fan club.

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

SmashMouth, change your avatar to chick avatar at once and Byrd will sign. If not, the blood is on your hands sir :)

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

Naw we're going to pay Graham 12 million per season. We can't sign a player like Byrd. I don't think we can sign any marquee free agents.

Am I doing it right?

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

If they are bringing Byrd in for a visit, Loomis must have some idea on a salary that they can make work in mind. And that will be with Jimmy getting a contract also. I don't think they would bring him in if they didn't think there was a reasonable way to sign him.

Plus Byrd probably wants to play for a winner. So we'll see what happens #WhoDat

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

Wow, hard decision to make. I can see how Byrd can help our defense. But I still have to go with Jimmy Graham.

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

Graham can be factored out easily . More balls for everyone replaces that , how can we place value on having a shutdown defense ?

Byrd visiting NO
 

It's a visit.

Remember the Nnamdi visit? Lol


Especially after this article.

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

Different situation as Nnamdi had no gas left in the tank. Saints and Nnamdi probably hit it off on the golf course back then.

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

This could be a bad ass signing if we can manage it.

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

Everyone wants to be wooed and treated like a rock star. Byrd's just enjoying his free agency.

Re: Byrd visiting NO
 

If you go to his twitter, you can see he is a very religous person.
