Why didn't the Saints bring in either Greg Zuerlein or Josh Brown?

They'd been better options than Kai Forbath or Josh Scobee...

Draft a kicker.

Hate to waste a draft pick; but I'd take the TCU kid, got a booming leg...

Re: 2016 Saints Free Agency
 

Don't think the kicker position is a pressing need?

Hello Saints nation from the 1980's.

Good read from a few months ago...

Why the New Orleans Saints should absolutely draft a kicker

Our offense has no trouble getting down to the twenty, problem is punching it in...

Re: 2016 Saints Free Agency
 

When I look at some of the talent that is acquired in UDRFA, and the advantage they have over a sixth, seventh round pick, the more I believe the NFL draft should be ten rounds...

Re: 2016 Saints Free Agency
 

I dont see why its not
To be honest if rather be a UDFA than a late 6 round or 7th round pick. At least you can join a team that suits you better as it stands.

Make the draft 10/12 rounds up the roster to 60 players and scrap practise squads.

Re: 2016 Saints Free Agency
 

I think they are thinking that with the shorter field positions they will have more opportunities to score because the opposition will have lesser time to adjust.
