Depends on the money. Also I like the signing if we get f.e. Butler and the 32 pick and sign Butler long term then I think it`s a good move. Passrush in the draft has to be adressed I think 2-3 times and I would also like to bring in a veteran guy for passrush situations only.

I heard you on that but with all the speed anthony has he's never around the ball. I like a lil speed mixed with football iq not saying he's dumb but maybe not the right scheme fit for DA

I'm with you. IDK what it is. Everybody raved about his IQ coming out of Clemson.

May be in the minority here, but I dont understand taking Butler when we'd be in the same position to pay him soon just like cooks, only alot more than Cooks. I'd rather have a deal with the Titans, but would take Butler & 32

Marcus Murphy replacement.

I don't have a problem with Klein or Ginn signing. Klein can help out in the middle of the defense and Ginn can stretch the field and return kicks.

I sure hope Reuben Foster is still on the Saints draft board @ #11.

I would rather wake up with my face stapled to th carpet than sign these two. No clue what the reasoning is other than depth.
