Don't be surprised if Coleman is right back here at a cheaper number... Saints Front Office are trusting the PFF-type analytics and believe Vonn Bell's is trending up, despite very shaky, inconsistent pass coverage... |

Don't mis-read me, I'm not saying PFF is an absolute (I often take them to task via Twitter to justify their grade); I've always liked Berry and his game (when healthy), but at age 29??? And while Mr. Marcus showed some regression vs his outstanding rookie season where he was ranked as a Top 3 safety - I'd stay with the younger Mr. Marcus and look at coaching, scheme of Dennis Allen... Personally I'd love'd to have locked up the secondary with a big physical Strong Safety who could mirror TEs or WR-X in the red zone, or something fierce like a Honey Badger... With today's cap and the Saints always playing right up against it, there's just no room to go and make any big splashes - we'll have to temper our expectations... |

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

Elite safeties like him play at a high level for a long time. I agree though, the cap definitely restricts us. We have to shop in the bargain bin. Who knows though, Berry might come cheaper than we think.

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Free Agency
Wonderful, another old, broke-down Tight End who can't run, play more than fifteen percent of the snaps a game, and will fade by the fourth quarter of the regular season...

WhiteBread Kittle in San Fran caught more TD passes and did more damage, and with Garoppolo out, and Cook could only get 6 ReTDs in Oakland? Gettin' old sucks, but when you hit that 3-0, it's a b*tch! Even Brees sittin' in the pocket having watched film five days a week with your arse in the seat for 5am is gettin limited... |
