At this rate he is an instant improvement over Coleman and Bell...so I’ll say it was a need based on their production through the first three games.

Coleman has been nonexistent. Sometimes I seriously forget he’s even on the team.

We can’t truly address that in free agency right now. We have to trade for that need. I don’t know who all is on the block:

I'll probably get roasted for this but ...

The AZ Cardinals are a really bad team right now. How about we offer them... say a 2020 high round pick or a mid rounder next season (4th rd). Who thought the Rams could get Marcus Peters for a 3? I sure didn't think so.

These corners we've brought in recently apparently aren't gonna pan out or help us make a serious SB push. I'd be interested to pair Lattimore with a guy like Patrick Peterson. He is a mentor, teacher, leader & high quality player on those boundaries.

With some of our off season moves with players (specifically the draft choices & corners) being cut, I wonder if the Saints front office is even interested in entertaining the thought of acquiring a legitimate presence opposite Latt.

Sorry but the Sterling Moore & Amerson's of the world aren't gonna get it done for us. What's up with Dominique Cromartie?

Thoughts?

Re: 2018 NFL Free Agency

The Panthers waived CB Lorenzo Doss to make room for Eric Reid... He’s New Orleans born and raised so I’d think about claiming him on waivers.

Good young player right here. He'd have to clear through waivers right?

I'm sure JP could give us good feedback on Lorenzo (Tulane). My guess is that another team would snatch him up before us ... assuming we have any interest.

Doss has adequate size, athleticism for the position; his problem is that the very aggressiveness that gives him his edge can be used against him for big plays...

With today's NFL game, he's a PI, Defensive Holding call waiting to happen. Can he be coached up? Possibly, but that free-lance element of his game is what made him...

Re: 2018 NFL Free Agency

How's that 30 mil we spent on DeMario Davis looking now?!?

Look we all thought we finally had gotten past our deep ball defensive ills and it's obvious we still haven't...

But I sure thought we could use more help in the secondary after Patrick Robinson and it didn't happen...

Re: 2018 NFL Free Agency

The Seahawks want a 2nd for Thomas. I don't think the Saints could draft someone as good as Thomas in the second.
