There’s our nickel CB! Do it!

One year deal for him to re-establish himself? Problem is, we already have that player in Kurt Coleman...

That sure is a pretty sizable market - looks like he'll be very expensive to sign for a 30yo pass rusher...

Yeah but think about last year when they brought AP on board, then Kamara falls into their laps. If you have a chance to upgrade, you should take it IMO.

But two recent examples really just have me shaking my head...

Slammy Watkins, 3 years, 48 million, 30 million guaranteed

WTF?!? Really?!? WTF has this guy done to deserve that kind of money?!? How the hell with the current cap structure are we going to be able to afford to keep Mike Thomas in two years when you signed this busted potential to that kind of coin? Attempting to sign Thomas a year early is not likely going to get it done. But why o why KC did you blow the freaking market apart like that? I've got tremendous respect for Andy Reid the coach, but his is absolutely stupid...

Malcolm Butler, 5 years, 61 million, 30+ guranteed

While the average per year is slightly better on this deal, why are you signing a No. 2 CB to No. 1 money; well the Titans may hang their inability to get to the legit circle on Marcus Mariota, but it really should be on GM Jon Robinson. Robinson went from being a grad assistant/LB Coach at nearby Nicholls State, worked his way through the Patriots Organization to be the GM of the Titans, held all the cards in the draft just two years ago, now goes and schitts this deal? This would be the coup de gras in his run if he was with any legit team, but the Titans are used to sucking balls and they'll keep him with some lame excuse. But in the meantime, he just set the market way out for free agent cornerbacks that are not No. 1s...

WOW! As I was saying, Chiefs must have some crystal ball...

Coleman at strong safety, Mathieau at nickel CB. No problem there.

Idk chris, you think we are willing to pay him what he wants or him take a hometown discount to come home. He seemed dead set on getting paid every penny in az

One small problem ... Mr. Loomis & company aren't going to over pay anyone in Free Agency.

I agree with ya JP. Teams are way overpaying for everyone this year. We should get what we can and rely on the draft more. 1 or 2 good ones reasonably priced in FA is a bonus. We killed the draft last year and it will happen again this year

Re: 2018 NFL Free Agency
 
I want to take a moment to throw some perspective on the 2018 Free Agency Season for the Saints...

If we're not that busy, that's not necessarily a bad thing - it means we've got most of the parts we already need...

It also means we're likely done signing the JByrds and Junyahs of the world eating 20%-25% of our cap with dead money...

Just gonna leave that right there for y'all to mull over...

We will sign Patrick Robinson. Forget about Mathieu.

Could Jerry Hughes hit the market?

As with anyone id love Honey Badger in black and gold vut financially i do not think it makes sense with the signings already made. That money better spent on securing depth on both lines.

Bring back Kelemete and go get a DT who will need double teams.

Suh will go to the highest bidder imo.
I dont see him as the type to put winning over cash

Agreed. Saints FO have already made it clear (Graham) that they aren't over spending in Free Agency this season.

I'd like to see Kelemete re-signed and bring in Hagan's guy, Daquan Jones. I'd happily call free agency a wrap at that point and wait for the draft.

Now there is the TE worth picking up. Give him a great QB and he scores TDs

Replace Kelemete and Sign NT Dontari Poe - and the Saints Front Office gets a grade of A+...

And that grade would reflect showing the restraint in not overpaying for Graham...



Kelemete was worth the 3 years, 12 million, 5.5 guaranteed he got; I really wanted to keep SK and ship off Mr. Glass & his every other week act out...
