Both Brees and Ingram would benefit from those moves.

I think Lelito can be that center. In every game he entered last year, the offense got better IMHO.

After the Byrd deal last year, might it be out of the question to reach towards someone like Mike Iupati?

Team and player have 'agreed', but has the deal been signed? Are they waiting until Tuesday bc of the cap?

Hopefully this season he'll keep up the production.

There's no reason it shouldn't. I think changing over to ZBS really helped him.

It was his contract year and he wanted a raise, BFD. Look for his past production to come back

Dude, you're so wrong.

Ingram was drafted because Payton decided to implement the ZBS - the same scheme Ingram ran behind on the way to a Heisman trophy.

Ingram's success last year was due in part to two things:
1) Health
2) Carries

Health is obvious but his carries were 226. His previous high was 156...

The guy worked hard, stayed focused and was given the opportunity to have a good season. And he produced. To the tune of 4.3 yds per carry.

Demarco Murray, the NFL's leading rusher, was 4.7ypc

Just imagine what Ingram can do with a HEALTHY offensive line... Guess we'll find out in 2015!

I'm on the fence with this one, he probably is the best choice out there and I should be excited with this. But I think I'm just waiting to hear good news for the defense.

Jairus Byrd cleared to play in 2015 for New Orleans Saints, according to tweet | NOLA.com

What healthy offensive line, only Armstead is under 30
