The #Jets are expected to sign #Titans FA LB Avery Williamson, source said. A perfect fit for a 3-4 ILB.

The Saints front office hardly over paid for a solid contributor.

Is Coleman a top 20 Safety in the league?

Based on last years #'s, probably not however he's versatile and can play both free AND the strong spot. Coach Allen stated he wants to be less predictable on D & Sean wants consistency at the position.

Kurt is a locker room leader and gives consistent effort. He'll be a key cog in 2018 defense. Saints coaches like his mental makeup because he's a smart player & weakens a divisional foe.

KC isn't great by any means but no worse than Kenny Vacarro and will cost a lot less.

Side note - his cap # is only 3.3M for 2018. That's a good number & a win for the Saints.

How did he make a mistake? He went exactly to the team I knew he would go to. They were a superstar TE away from being a big time offense again. And they brought back Philbin as OC.

I'd take Clayborn and Jordy Nelson though!

Clayborn or Dontari Poe? We really need a good-to-honest NT that draws double teams consistently...

And Clayborn will be 30yo in July, wrong side of the hill to be bringing in pass rushers...

I just think having 6' 3" of 343 lbs of goodness pulling some heat off of Cam would due the pass rush more good...

Then get Taven Bryan as the 3T or DE (he can play both) on the other side and start ruining opposing passers game days...

I really don't think our receiving situation is that bad that we'd need to spend a lot on a receiver...

We won a Superbowl with Colston-Henderson-Moore-Shockey; we currently have Thomas-Ginn-Snead (RFA)-Fleener...

Snead had, without a doubt, a season to forget, but two great seasons before then, so hold off on the write-off...

And if Snead connects with Kamara on the WR option pass, everyone is wanting to keep him right now...

Where we need help is Tight End where Fleener really hasn't fit in on this team and where Graham would've been ideal...

We need that TE threat for 3rd downs and redzone, but not a bad TE deal like Shockey for two draft picks or dead money on a broken-down FA TE...

This makes sense with Amendola departing for Miami...
