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.

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?

I’d trade them whatever the **** they wanted for Patrick Peterson. And is anyone else remembering the fact we passed on Tyrann Mathieu in free agency?

I wonder what his agent was asking? He signed with the Texans for one year at $7 million. It would have taken some creative cap work but it could have been done.

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...

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...

Well, we're outta first round picks - so that's out...

'Zona needs offensive linemen, but Peat's injured and we're an Armstead toe-jam away from being short...

And I'm not sure Armstead for Peterson is gonna fly in 'Zona, at least not without a 1st rd pick...

And then there's the possibility that if we could get Peterson, he flops here because of DA's system/Payton's meddling - just speculating...
