Rodney Gunter? Or is it possible Jay Bromley returns?

Chargers DT Darius Philon. 25 years old and a native of Mobile, AL. Coming off a four sack season and plays the run very well. Could be a very good rotational piece with Onyemata.

There's legit buzz of McCoy's offseason training association with Brees that if McCoy doesn't get a wow contract offer if released by the Bucs, he may do a short-term deal with the Saints...

Here’s a fun question...

The Vikings have only $7 million in cap space. TE Kyle Rudolph is going into the last year of his contract and turns 30 in November. The Vikings can save $7.62 million with no dead cap by cutting or trading him.

Would you be willing to trade our 2nd round pick for him?

A 2nd round pick would probably be a little much. I’ve seen the idea of trading him floating around in the Vikings corner of the internet and their fans sound like they would only expect a later round pick.

Nah not at all, not a game breaker and he's 30. We could get a better one in the draft, we really need more receiving options.

Absolutely not.

Jesse James makes the most sense, and I like the idea of adding him to the three we have already...

And if we go with as few RBs as we had this year, we can keep a FB and a fourth TE for jumbo packages...

It appears the Kurt Coleman experiment was a swing and a miss.

Earl Thomas anyone? A game changer on the back end.

saintsfan1976 · 02-05-2019, 07:51 PM

Rudolph? No because I believe a healthy Dez Bryant and Cam Meredith significantly upgrade our receiving options. Dan and Josh are good enough to have 2 big games that exploit a matchup enough to win. We don’t need an all star TE.

What we need is to fill Rankins spot and fix a still-leaky secondary.
