Wow! Didn’t see that coming!

Re: Saints Signing LB .Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

Big. Very big.

Looks like we are drafting offense.

Re: Saints Signing LB .Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

Sweet!

Re: Saints Signing LB .Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

But is he any good? I've never heard of him.:?

Re: Saints Signing LB .Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

FWIW, Davis was PFF’s #8 LB last season.

Re: Saints Signing LB .Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

Coming off a career best season.

Re: Saints Signing LB Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

We just might have a VERY good team this year. FO isn’t ****ing around. I agree, looks like they are gearing up for an offensive draft.

I love this pic, get jordy Nelson or Maclin,,,preferable Nelson and today going to make my month

Re: Saints Signing LB Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

So do I, that was years after I was hoping we were going to draft him out of Miami!

Re: Saints Signing LB Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

Oh hell yeah. Speed at linebacker. And he's from Collins, MS. Went to Brandon High School. This makes sense.

Love this signing. Move Klein to SAM and let the chips fall however they may at WILL. For the second year in a row our LB group is trending up. That probably hasn't been the case since the dome patrol days.

Damn, a linebacker with speed/instincts, arrives with bad intentions AND can cover? Bobby Wagner comes to mind.

We're cooking with gas now.

Re: Saints Signing LB Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

So what we thinking will be tbe starting three next year?

Klein and Anzalone?

Hope Robertson sticks myself,really like him as a depth player.

Does Te'o stay around

Re: Saints Signing LB Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

We only have DE and DT to draft then LT and a couple of guards. Maybe WR in the 1st.

I grant this signing a grand total of FIVE dancing bananas!!!!!

Keep Robertson at WLB
Klein, Teo - MIKE
Davis & Stupar - SLB

Anzalone? ... WLB (hopefully he can stay healthy).

I'll be interested to see how the real coach (Nolan) lines them up though.

Re: Saints Signing LB Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

I read a tweet from Underhill on Davis ...

"He plays on all 3 downs & has participated in 79 of 80 games". With all the guys we had on IR last season ... that's HUGE. You can count on him to play every Sunday.

Demario is a reliable player.

Re: Saints Signing LB Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

For me personally,

WLB- Alex Anzalone, Craig Robertson
MLB- Demario Davis, Manti Te’o
SLB- AJ Klein, Nate Stupar

Re: Saints Signing LB Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

I see Teo being the odd man out. We will save 2.5 million by cutting him. Only 300k dead money. Stupor would be next. 400 k dead with 1.7 million saved.

Re: Saints Signing LB Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

Right
Good savings there for 2nd string players
Shame for Te'o as he played well but at least he has restored his rep and will get a job

Re: Saints Signing LB Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

I hope we keep teo cause you never know what will happen better to be safe than sorry

Re: Saints Signing LB Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

LOVE this signing

Re: Saints Signing LB Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

This is a good person and good player that wants to win from the video. Have to be a contender to get these guys. Great sign.

Re: Saints Signing LB Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

My Browns support friend not a fan. Says nothing but a down hill thumper. Though it seems to be the Browns trading him that switch the lights on upstairs according to Todd Bowles

Re: Saints Signing LB Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

you’re right Lee. I’ve read multiple articles about him being a new player and how his approach to the game changed hence the career year. He’s matured and there’s evidence of that from recent tweets about his former organization. I like the move

Re: Saints Signing LB Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

Sounds like what happened with Malcolm Jenkins.

Re: Saints Signing LB Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

Yeah,gotta hope the upwards trajectory continues. I respect his opinion though,he was the one that told me we would love Robertson

Re: Saints Signing LB Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

F**k! I hope we're not looking at another victim of the Big Mo...

Re: Saints Signing LB Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

I'm a little worried about the PRob but this is a slam dunk. I am hyped about this season. There are a lot of players that where injured last year and its basically like we are adding them also. This might be our next Super Bowl team. I can not wait.

Re: Saints Signing LB Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

Gang, there be linebackers on this team now! We'll likely keep six (6) linebackers as we had last year...

Well, this is where we are currently at linebacker going into the draft:


SLB (2) 53 - A.J. Klein, 54 - Nate Stupar, 59 - Shayne Skov (FC)

MLB (2) 56 - DeMario Davis (FA 2018), 51 - Manti Te'o, 99 - Adam Bighill (FC)

WLB (2) 47 - Alex Anzalone, 52 - Craig Robertson, 44 - Hau'oli Kikaha, 45 - Sae Tautu (FC)


Most vulnerable are Kikaha and Te'o as they lack the versatility that Davis, Anzalone, Klein, Robertson and Stupar have...

Re: Saints Signing LB Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

Lee if you watch this video, it seems that the trade back to the Jets from the Browns opened his eyes on improving his craft kind of like what happened with the Saints letting Jenkins leave via the free agency.


Seems like a legit leader and I've already read a lot of good things about him - having not even known the guy's name before this signing.

Re: Saints Signing LB Demario Davis to 3 Year, $.24mil Deal
 

Good signing. Brings some it in his game. :)
