Well, the Saints have until April 8th to match Atlanta's offer. That said, it does look like Bush will be, regrettably, an Atlanta Falcon.

2 year deal is surprising.

Re: Saints sign Champ Bailey

I like the move. Adds depth and knowledge. I still think we need to add one more CB in the draft. Having Byrd, lewis and champ teaching a young CB is a good thing.

Slowly but surely we're plugging the holes. Now we just need to address receiver, oline and add some speed at linebacker. I like where we're headed this offseason.

So, basically he could have an instant impact or just be an expensive coach. Either way I'm down with the signing.

Re: Saints sign Champ Bailey

Not opposed to this signing at all... I didn't see many Denver games this past season (or two), so I don't really know how effective of a player Bailey still is.

But if RR, SP and ML thought he was worth bringing in and giving him a 2-year contract - then I can't help but to think that he still has some worth as an on-the-field DB.

Re: Saints sign Champ Bailey

Bailey was released by the Denver Broncos earlier this offseason because of a lofty price tag and declining production. But the 12-time Pro Bowler is said to be healthy after being plagued by a foot injury last season, ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter reported earlier this week.
Thats encouraging, because he looked awful last year.

He actually had a great 2012 season, so he isn't far removed from greatness.

And he rested a lot last year. So he should be fairly darn healthy.
