Make it happen Loomis!

The New Orleans Saints will meet with running back Tim Hightower this week regarding the possibility of re-signing him, according to a source.

Hightower, 29, was with the Saints last season on a one-year, veteran minimum contract that expired in the offseason.

I'm all for it. He'd be an excellent backup and spot starter for us. He's a young 29

Great decision to talk to this guy again. We could get him on the cheap and with some incentives he will produce a lot more than his pay.

Earned another shot.

I'm sure he'll be resigned. I think Payton likes him.

What's not to like? Great effort, enthusiasm to rub off on locker room too.

With Robinson testing FA there is a spot for him.

I didn't know the Jets had signed him

Re: New Orleans Saints to meet with running back Tim Hightower, source says
 

the Jets signed him but that injury could be really hard to come back from. I would rather take my chances with HIghtower at this point. He was the best back on the field last year when called upon.

Re: New Orleans Saints to meet with running back Tim Hightower, source says
 

ok he has been out there for a while lets see what happens

Re: New Orleans Saints to meet with running back Tim Hightower, source says
 

As long as we aren't counting on Cadet we should be alright.

I do hope though that we re-sign Hightower. He is a tough runner and held up well for us last year, he's also a feel good story.

Re: New Orleans Saints to meet with running back Tim Hightower, source says
 

Ingram, Spiller, Hightower and Cadet gives us an above average backfield

Re: New Orleans Saints to meet with running back Tim Hightower, source says
 

Payton had no faith in Spiller later in the season putting Cadet in his role.

Hightower was outperforming bith of them
A good boost when Khiry went down

Re: New Orleans Saints to meet with running back Tim Hightower, source says
 

From what I understand it wasn't so much faith as Spiller not being healthy.

Can't compare Hightower to those two, they get completely different plays to run. With that said, I'd love for us to have Hightower back.

I think the issue was in between his ears and the ghost of the injury. Maybe this year he will trust in the repairs. we shall see. like Byrd we are stuck with him for a while.
