Another FB in backfield to love.
The New Orleans Saints have signed former Tampa Bay Buccaneers fullback Erik Lorig to a four-year deal. He visited the Saints on Saturday. Lorig, 27 had been with the Buccaneers for four seasons. Lorig is a 6-foot-4, 250-pounder from Stanford. He caught 11 passes for 47 yards last season. For his career, Lorig has 30 catches for 193 yards and one touchdown. The Saints didn't re-sign fullback Jed Collins, who wasn't tendered as a restricted free agent.  Attached Thumbnails

Re: Saints Agree To Terms With Erik Lorig
At 6'4" and 250lbs Lorig plays FB and TE for blocking purposes. Johnson most likely will stay on the PS for development.
One stat that causes pause, no carries in 4 years with the Bucs. Hmmmnnnnn |

Re: Saints Agree To Terms With Erik Lorig
Sounds like this guy can play a little tight end too. Like his size and versatility.

Re: Saints Agree To Terms With Erik Lorig
I liked Collins, but, no sense in overpaying a guy who carries the ball once a game or so.
Good Luck Jedidiah Gabriel Collins! (kind of cool to have Jedi in your name) And welcome Mr. Lorig! |

Re: Saints Agree To Terms With Erik Lorig
We need a big, mauling run blocker. Hopefully he fills the need.
