I think Lynch will find a way to retain (long term deal) Arik for 2020. IIRC he (Arik) did say he would be open to the tag .... so there's that.

Good pass rushers ... pricey & I don't think the Saints will call.

IDK St. T... 2019 was a great year for him but what about the previous 2 or 3 out in San Fran? Very sub par.

Yes. Armstead said that he would be very open to the tag.

Wow, Offensive Player of the Year, Only No. 8?

PFF … SMDH

25 - Eli Apple ... initially he played well but is there confidence issues? Was a bit inconsistent in NY, same applies in New Orleans.

Rez mentioned a name that I like too .. Byron Jones. Vet and he's consistent at corner.

Isn't Janoris still under contract for this year? isn't it for about ~10mil? That's seems to be on par for a top-flight CB2...

Final year with $10.15M base, $1M roster bonus, $100K workout bonus - none guaranteed. He can be cut and re-signed at a lower base and bonuses or extended/restructured to free up even more 2020 cap hit.

Yep.

I was reading one of your tweets on "several teams interested in Eli Apple". Watch how much money is thrown his way in Free Agency.

If the Saints are "all in, Super Bowl or bust"

) this season, cutting Janoris makes little sense. Top performer on short notice in NO & locked down a very good WR (Diggs) when it mattered most in the playoffs.

For a skilled player of his caliber, 11M doesn't seem all that bad to me.

Can you imagine how well he'll perform with a full camp in Metarie?

Latt & Janoris would compliment each other well.

17 - Emmanuel Butler (UDFA 2019)
18 - Keith Kirkwood
80 - Austin Carr .. he plays a mean piano though.

^^^^^

I think we have at least 5 UDFA's on the current roster ... there is a lack of talent. The lack of talent shows up when you go against more talented (PLAYOFFS) players.

Ginn, Tre both below average production in 2019. We have NOTHING behind Michael Thomas. Saints have been fortunate that CGM has been in pristine health, however a injury could happen on any given play.

RE TOOL must happen this off season.

Side bar on the WR core ...Take some Taysom Hill had more TD's, higher catch %, more catches than Tre'quan Smith. Taysom Hill. Blows my mind that some think "we are fine" with the current WR core.

If the Saints moved on/benched Tre' in 2020, I'll understand.
