Normally im all for building the lines but when you have nothing at QB,RB,WR thats alot of cash

Leads me to believe they are trading with the Pats back up QB!!!

Hey at least we're proactive this year. They're pushing it and trying to land some quality FAs.

Ian Rapoport‏ @RapSheet

Source: The #Saints are signing G Larry Warford to beef up their OL. Was a big area of focus for them.

After a great rookie showing Warford has issues with minor injuries and quality of play. Last year he was serviceable and showed signs of his old self .. at times.

If we get the rookie player out of him it will be huge. If not it is a so so kind of signing.

Crap shoot with upside

IMO this is a nice signing that we needed at the position.

Hagan, Major brought up Roushar and rightfully so...

I really liked the idea of getting Zeitler who'd probably need just a little coaching to get up to speed on our offense...

Then we could build a second offensive line that Roushar could really focus on developing behind the older vets...

When we see the guaranteed money on Warford, that'll balance against what we get out of him...

Excellent in pass protection. Solid choice ... solid.

Larry Warford signs with Saints

Had a bad feeling Zeitler would end up in Cleveland. Between their enormous cap space and his familiarity with Hue Jackson. Hope all that cash is enough to ease the misery of one abysmal season after another after another. Good luck with that Kev.
