2017 Free Agency thread anyone?

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Continue to sign several mid-tier guys or low risk/high reward players to fill holes. Then draft who we want. If there is any big "splash" made in FA, I'd be happy with that guard mauler from Cincy....

Only thing I know for certain is that everyone will be disappointed in one way or another!

The post Byrd money will likely go to locking up Vacarro.

Still with over $30MM we should land a solid G, DE/DT and CB.

I bet we have a stellar draft again this year.

While he's opening up, ask him 'how he feels about the Graham trade?'

In Byrd's reply tweet to Kenny Vaccaro, he mentioned the Saints should pay the man...

So that would be in line with what you're suggesting...

S - Bye Bye Jairus Byrd? Cap Saving 2017 $3.7m 2018 $7.6m 2019 $9m

$2.4 to $5.25 million Contract Range

Duron Harmon, FS, New England Patriots (26) / 6'1' / 205 / Rd. 3 (91) / NE
A nickel safety trapped behind Devin McCourty and Patrick Chung has proven ability to play deep off the line of scrimmage and still influence play. Harmon has shown his adept skills in pass coverage and tracking down the football downfield and has made big plays for the team, Teams have no shortage of strong safety options, but a legitimate talent at free safety is a rare prize. He has helped in coverage, but not necessarily in one-on-one situations all that often.Belichick has spoken very highly of Harmon, including saying “He’s smart, he works hard, he studies, he trains hard” and even going as far as to say “Duron is, I’d say every team, or most every team I’ve ever coached, there are always a couple guys on the team that I would say, for lack of a better word, that are silent leaders” He is the guy to look to for a big pass break-up, or great coverage downfield, or the big-time interception when needed.

Micah Hyde FS/SS Green Bay Packers 26 / 6'0' / 197 / Rd. 5 (159) / GB
He is a dependable player who offers versatility. Hyde is capable of playing both free and strong safety. Hyde has showcased consistent football despite being trapped in a rotation with HaHa Clinton-Dix and Morgan Burnett in his tenure with the Packers. Hyde has racked up 227 tackles, 24 passes defensed, eight interceptions and four sacks in 63 career games. In addition, Hyde has punt return capabilities, recording three touchdowns throughout his career. He’ll most likely be searching for a starting opportunity.
