Contract talks with P-Rob

blackangold · 02-23-2015, 12:19 PM

The Saints have held preliminary contract discussions with cornerback Patrick Robinson and there is “mutual interest” in reaching an agreement, according to a source.

Robinson, a former first-round pick, is set to reach free agency. If a deal is not reached, the cornerback will be free to sign with another team when the league year begins on March 10.

Robinson served in various capacities last season before settling into the slot, where he held opposing quarterbacks to a 57.5 quarterback rating, according to Pro Football Focus. If he is brought back, the Saints would likely eye him for a similar role next season.

How about the Saints offer to pay his cab fare to the airport? Sounds good to me

Say what you want, but Patrick Robinson has shown slivers of talent at times; I don't see anything wrong with allowing Dennis Allen the chance to work with him.

Just look how he had Tracy Porter playing...

Waiting on potential is what gets GMs fired

well apparently; those involved think otherwise seeing as there is mutual interest in a new deal...

That's the positive approach to what has been a less than fruitful first round selection...

And I can totally get on board with a performance-based contract and see what could happen with Dennis Allen thrown into this equation...

I would also add Terrance Frederick and Dixon to the mix. These guys also had "flashes" last season. Surely Allen can coach them up just the same.

Edit : SJB ... for a moment I forgot to include our 2nd round corner. How sad.

That's OK, he's forgettable. Clearly a mistake to have taken in 2nd round. May the pick be rescued by some creative coaching in the next year or so (just in time for him to go FA).
