Probably. He could be had for around 8.5/year with more guaranteed money.

Mike Glennon or even Brian Hoyer would be great signings, upgrades behind Brees.

What would we spend on a 2-down thumper? Rather upgrade our coaching at LBer first.

I'd go after RFA Kiko Alonso and give up the 2nd round tender. We should've scooped up ILB Jordan Tripp before the Packers did - he also will be a RFA.

Like the idea of letting our Safeties come back healthy (and from suspension) and letting another rookie come in and make Byrd and his contract expendable...

We can then use the money on Vaccaro among other positions...

Now, if we do need a short-term rental at Safety, how's Seattle's FS Jeron Johnson, Carolina's Colin Jones or even getting Raph Bush back at around 1.5 to 2 mil per year?

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

When he does he does a solid job any where they put him. I always like the guy back to his college days.

Two down thumper? AJ is a three down LB and does really well in coverage at either OLB or ILB.

Alonso? so you want to roll the IR dice and a 2nd round tender? got a bigger set than I do. way to much risk to begin with. I may bite. But toss in a 2nd and I am out

I am looking at upgrading safety depth with a player that is a proven special demon.

Keep
Kenny Vaccaro,
Erik Harris
Vonn Bell

we will see
Roman Harper
Jairus Byrd,

The rest can walk

Yikes! So that leaves us with Moore, Webb and Harris against the Failclowns. Maybe Calhoun gets called up from the practice squad with Dixon being signed recently by another team. Most of them will be free agents after this game so let's see who shows that they want to be here.

Re: 2016 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook

Another corner back down ? What are they doing in practice drills? I understand all teams have injuries but the Saints seem to have more than most at the position.
