Could it be the Saints are trading with the Patriots straight up?

Desperation mode. At this point Evans is below average NFL starter. Great career but he is done. Our O-line have been underperforming for years. It's all on GM and coaching staff.

At this point (last season) Jahri Evans was the 28th rated OG according to PFF. That puts him at above average given there are at least OG's 64 that started last year. He knows the system and knows the position. I don't see it as desperation, but as taking advantage of a opportunity.

Well if 32 teams start 64 guards and Evans while injured was ranked 28th it still puts him comfortably in the top 50% of guards

Of course that makes too much sense for the sky-is-falling crowd.

Evans knows our system and can plug and play week one

Now let's get a solid starter guard in a trade or FA

wish Brees had pulled the trigger earlier

then again we didn't know our OL had as huge of issues till pre season
