Heck of a list

Can see re-signing the top 10 (Brees, Vaccaro, Kelemete, Okafor, Bush, Hodges, Mauti, Moore, Kuhn, Line) with Vaccaro being the biggest wildcard...

Saints FO probably know whether Vaccaro was limited more by the torn groin muscle (from bone) these past couple years or poor play; then there's the asking price...

I want Jimmy Graham back in Black and Gold. Don't know exactly what he's going to cost but he would fill a huge need on offense. I think if he came back we'd see him regain his pro bowl form with Drew as his QB.

I don’t think it’s even an option. I think he was part of the locker room purge of “me first” players.

We've still got interior defensive line to address, interior offensive line, probably now safety...

Graham isn't coming back at Fleener's salary slot which is what the Saints are gonna want to spend...

They'll probably get the franchise tag, but I'd love to snag DE Demarcus Lawrence and DT Dontari Poe...

During Drew's best years he always had a playmaker at TE. It's a position that needs to be addressed. They need to bring someone in, draft or free agency, that they feel confident can make some plays on 3rd down and in the redzone. Doesn't have to be Jimmy but it needs to be addressed along with the positions you mentioned and at lb and wr.
