Bottom of the Barrel: Saints Off Season Moves Grade Poorly

Danno · 04-02-2016, 08:44 AM

I agree we overpaid for Fleener, but the rest were pretty good deals. Maybe we were dinged because several of our additions were really back-ups and special teamers.
Considering the cap space we had I thought we did an excellent job filling some holes.
All things considered I'd give us a C-plus or even a B-minus.
We're in a youth movement. We have a ton of young talent from last year that should keep developing nicely.

Hell Danno says we have a C-plus! WTF... a C-+? That's practically an "A" for most of us.
Plus you forgot the Roddy White deal.

Yeah, the Fleener deal was $5 million too much, but all of the others are low-risk High reward.
If 2 of the 4 defensive players crack the lineup and produce then the grade is an A just based on price
But, outsider looking in, hard to disagree with C-
