2019 Saints NFL Free Agency

ChrisXVI · 02-22-2019, 09:35 AM

There’s some strong speculation out there right now that we’re going after Earl Thomas and that the interest is mutual. Reportedly he was in town last weekend and told people he was going to get a deal done with us when free agency starts.

Just something to keep an eye on. Don’t shoot the messenger.

I hope not. Really would prefer signing the 26yo Honey Badger. Reason is two-fold - don't won't the Mathieu reuniting with Bruce Arians in Tampa Bay...

Same "speculation" up this way in Deathstar Nation over the last week or so. Earl enrolled his kids down in Austin, wants to be closer to home yada, yada.

Who knows.

All I know is that Earl Thomas is still ELITE at the Free Safety position. He knows how to track the football, takes away the deep pass & intercepts passes on a regular basis. Rare ability.

Can't argue with his production. I wouldn't be mad if they Saints brass are targeting him Free Agency.

I'm more concerned about the DT position this off season though.
