Saints could remain active, all the way through draft weekend

Saints coach Sean Payton made it clear last week — during an impromptu media ethics lecture — that he had no intention of ever including quarterback Drew Brees in his team’s extreme makeover.

But that doesn’t mean some more significant changes aren’t coming.

According to Peter King of Sports Illustrated, the Saints are expected to remain active on several fronts leading up to the draft.

Two deals he mentions are possible trades of guard Jahri Evans and defensive end Cameron Jordan.

Evans and Jordan aren't going anywhere.

I could however see a possible trade of one of the 10 safeties we have on our roster....

God knows we need more. What was the last team to win a Superbowl that didn't have AT LEAST 20 safties on the roster?

Josh Brent would be a great pick up. He's really good at playing safety. You know, because he's such a safe driver and never drin... ah screw it, it's not funny.

We have a lot of safeties.

And WR's.

Don't forget WR's... You KNOW Sean is going with a WR!!

saintsfan1976 · 03-30-2015, 10:41 AM

And he's trading UP to get one!

If Jahri Evans restructures i will be floored if he is traded. well at least before the draft. if he does not then anything can happen.

Cameron Jordan not sure if i buy into this one unless his agent is way out of line for a new contract. then there might be something to it

Ellerbe's cap hit is now higher than thought. Look for Jahri to restructure in two weeks. We need room to sign draft picks!
