2019 Saints NFL Free Agency
So this ghost may still be out there from last year...

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Free Agency
Looks like Green Bay figured our Jimmy can’t block.

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Free Agency
Graham is probably not fully healthy either which they found out quickly after signing him to more insane money than us - but, no, he still can't block...
Kinda like my ex, she couldn't cook because the will to cook wasn't there - where there's a will, there's a way... |

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Free Agency
Please God no Jimmy Graham. He’s completely done.
Give me TE Jesse James as JP mentioned or even take a flyer on Austin Sefarian-Jenkins. Also, there’s a chance the Buccaneers could cut Cameron Brate because they’re tight on cap space and cutting him frees up $7 million with $0 dead cap. |

James could really make that right side of the line sing in the run game (we still need to do something at RG, C)... And James is a receiving weapon as well... |
Re: 2019 Saints NFL Free Agency
Tyler Eifert would be a gamble because of his injury issues, but there could be some upside if the price is right.

This is pretty much all I have for a wishlist:

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Free Agency
Wow, was reading this morning that Todd Bowles is expected to come in and install a 3-4 defense as the ATL has...
WTF?!? Tampa has among the best, top 5, 4-3 LBers on that roster and you're gonna blow that thing up? Tampa needs defensive backs to make that defense special... Anyways, some of the fallout may mean DT Gerald McCoy won't be a good fit in the new 3-4 and as he didn't make the ProBowl for the first time, he may get cut loose... Contending teams may be able to get a one year rental on him if his market doesn't materialize as expected and he decides to enhance his portfolio with a championship ring... Just something to stow away... |
Re: 2019 Saints NFL Free Agency
While I'm not saying to break the bank, Saints really should try to bring back Davison to try to keep that defensive line chemistry intact...
And then there's the matter of how much do we spend to retain Mark Ingram... Those two contract questions will be among the first to be answered... |

You bet we should go after him! I’d like it a heck of a lot more than last year’s pursuit of Suh. |
Re: 2019 Saints NFL Free Agency
Not one mention of an O-lineman? Who do ya'll like? Please enlighten me.....
|
Re: 2019 Saints NFL Free Agency
Could see the Saints going after Saints Killer WR Golden Tate opposite WR Michael Thomas - cost might be prohibitive though...
Really like Chris's idea of WR Adam Humphries working the underneath stuff - giving Brees a safety release... |

I'm on the Jesse James train (blocks, catches well and is young) in Free Agency. Whatever the Saints do, I hope we aren't relying on rookie (via draft) at TE to start and make an immediate impact. Trotting out undrafted (Hill, Arnold), lower round TE's and expecting them to perform like Gronk or Kelce' in crucial situations has got to stop. |
Re: 2019 Saints NFL Free Agency
I'd even throw in Mr. Cole Beasley @ slot duties. It's pretty clear that Stephen Jones is moving in a different direction up this way @ DeathStar Nation.
The guy knows how to get open and keep the chains moving on 3rd down. Even with Dak Bortles throwing him the ball. |

Besides, you're gonna pay him that much to be a two-down linebacker when he has to come off in nickel-dime packages with Anzalone and Davis first up? |
Re: 2019 Saints NFL Free Agency
This may seem unrelated, but you gotta admire the Honey Badger's competitiveness...
I'm with Chris, we need to sign SS/NB Tyrann Mathieu after RB Mark Ingram, NT Tyeler Davison; move Coleman to natural position of FS behind Mr. Marcus, let Bell finish contract as reserve... |

Seriously speaking, when we signed PRob last season I knew Mathieu wasn't going to happen in NO. |
Re: 2019 Saints NFL Free Agency

Circle back to last season when we tried to bring in Wilkerson & Suh ... if either would have signed, they would have ultimately pushed Tyeler out the door. I think the Saints will try to upgrade his position this off season. IMO, I don't think he returns to NO. There will be a GM/franchise owner that pays him because of experience, youth & the fact that he's a pretty decent defensive tackle/rotational piece. To be continued... |
Re: 2019 Saints NFL Free Agency
Biggest needs this off season..
DT that can pass rush TE WR O line Re-sign Ingram and Dez We have everything else, let’s just put some money in the refs pockets and we’ll have it locked up. |

As I stated in an earlier post, which you also alluded - it'll probably be a case where a GM will come in and pay him for than what we may have slotted for NT... |

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Free Agency
Well, I'll say this about the potentially signing the Honey Badger, it'll take adding a couple of competitive-infectious-types to pick this team up off the mat after the officials ripped their heart out on that no-call...
This loss is as devastating to the team and as Marcus Williams' missed-tackle in the divisional playoff was to Mr. Marcus... |
Re: 2019 Saints NFL Free Agency
I think we're sticking with Griffin, Hill and Arnold.

Good... now we don’t have to hear about bringing him back for the next month or two.

Re: 2019 Saints NFL Free Agency
We don't really have to much of a choice in signing good FA's. we don't have enough picks to upgrade unless one falls out of grace before the draft. I hope we keep Davison but add another NT to the mix. I could see going after a dynamic lb. in FA ours haven't played bad by no means but add a true stud to that group and it's set. I still don't think we get enough pressure upfront, close but not great. I think if we take care of those 2 positions the backend looks much better. Apple will be even better next season.

Plus one. But, you can't underestimate the boost Jimmy would get playing with Brees under center. But I'd rather have a younger, healthier, available, Jesse James who can block like a mule as a Tight End... If we geaux with four (4) tight ends next season, assuming we sign Jesse James or better (not sure there is), this position could be a wrecking force against opposing defenses... And also allow us to bring in some young tackle and give him help with jumbo packages... But the real upgrade will come from within the organization with Dan Arnold having a whole season under the belt, along with a few extra pounds... |
