Re: 2018 NFL Free Agency

What I like this off season is that the Saints Front office has been reasonable & responsible. No "superstar signings" or monster contracts (Suh & Jimmy were offered fair deals but chose more money elsewhere) but solid contributions at positions of need.

It's hard for me not to like what's going on this off season.

Does this mean the just drafted Chubb will suck worse than Davenport?

I'm told former Ravens first-round pick S Matt Elam is getting a tryout with the Saints at their rookie minicamp this weekend. Had a few legal issues last year but all charges were dropped

Matt was a BIG hitter coming out of Florida. I thought he would have a more profound impact in the league. Well at least it cost nothing to have a "looksy" & kick the tires.

Further solidifies that the Saints staff/coaching staff have little interest in bringing back Kenny V. Not even at league minimum.

Re: 2018 NFL Free Agency

Pretty telling article from 2016 which gives some background on the former first round pick...

Matt Elam will take Kurt Coleman’s spot.

Don't bet on it...Elam may be superior athletically, but you have to execute...

Look at the Patriots - hardly athletes - but they execute because of the coaching...

Elam is gonna have to get his head on right, Aaron Glenn and DA are gonna have to find the right role for him...

His scouting report read like Roman Harper's - And I'd prefer a DB who can legitimately cover no matter what else he can do...
