Now, if they want to send over something we need, say TE Mike Gesicki, I'd send Williams and exchange like our fourth and their sixth round picks... |

Re: 2018 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
Clapp's performance will determine whether we keep eight (8) or nine (9) offensive linemen...
If Clapp is awesome, we keep eight and let LeRibeus geaux; if he's solid, still showing inexperience, we keep nine... Ranking our offensive linemen - Unger, Ramczyk, Armstead, Peat, Warford, Bushrod, Clapp, Leonard, LeRibeus... |

Re: 2018 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
Saw that. He'd been graded in the mid-70s by PFF the past couple of years and was going into the third year of a five year/$30mil contract...
Guess the Bengals didn't feel he was worth the coin... See us keeping four (4) safeties this year: FS (2) 43 - Marcus A. Williams, 31 - Chris Banjo SS (2) 29 - Kurt Coleman (FA 2018), 24 - Vonn Bell With Natrell Jamerson has the CB/S/NB hybrid... George is a big boy at 6' 4", but I wonder if he hasn't lost a step??? |

The reason I like the Coleman signing so much is I don't see much of a future for big strong safeties and two-down thumper linebacker in a pass-happy league... That's why there's such a premium on guys like Polomalu; if Iloka can no longer cover, then it's like Kenny V, Harper and it becomes a problematic matchup headache... |
