They should have signed JG AND kept Nelson. Rodgers would go bannnas.

Sounds like he wanted to be paid as the #1 weapon when he would be #3.

Are we bringing in Sefarin Jenkins?

I am rather glad, TBH. Give us one or more of the new bloods coming in the draft.

Last I read he was on his way to Seattle (he is from the Washington State area).

Really don't want any part of Austin Jenkins...

Don't trust guys who can't make up their mind on their last name anyways...

Would even prefer if they went the Prince, Bono or Topol route with one name...

Relax Saintfan... Saints will very likely draft the Nine Fingered Wonder who will be an All Pro with Drew Brees! :bng:

I really wanted to see Jimmy back here, but not at the money he got from GB and not on a 3 year deal. Good for him though, I hope he does well.

Agreed... that's crazy $.

I don't think I would have been comfortable with paying him half that.

Yep. I commend the Saints FO for drawing a line in the sand on contract talks.

Saints weren’t thrilled when they agreed to four years, $40 million in 2014. No way they were going to go that route again. https://t.co/zv64bHFhGn

Of course if he puts up "Saints" numbers it'll be 'WHY DIDN'T WE, SHOULD WE?.......CHEAP AT TWICE THE PRICE........BLAH BLAH"

They did overpay. That being said, Aaron Rodgers and Jimmy Graham together scares me. I think the Packers front office has a vision of how that combination will work together. Jimmy Graham doesn't need much separation to make plays. Aaron Rodgers ability to move outside of the pocket is going to leave Jimmy him with a lot of easy catches. It may not work out the way they envision, but I can see why the Packers would be the one team to significantly overpay.

I really wanted to see Jimmy come back, but would have cursed the front office had they matched GB's offer. Way too much money at this point in his career, especially with the other weapons we now have on offense.

And it would have allowed us to mask anything in the way do drafting a Tight End...
