Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

I know we sometimes we (Saints fans) question T Armstead's durability down the stretch ...

Same can be said about Brandon. Ending the last 2 seasons on IR (shoulder issues) would definitely sound the alarm but he's a risk worth taking.

Nonetheless he'll be costly in Free Agency.

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

Just a couple of names to throw out there in Free Agency ...

B Breeland - CB ... assuming we aren't able to retain Janoris J, BB would come cheap, came up BIG in the Super Bowl and has a veteran experience in crucial moments.
A Armstead - DL ... Rankins can't stay healthy and no guarantees David O stays a Saint.

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

Cory Littleton - LB Rams

Speed, above avg coverage skills & can blitz. He played lights out (contract year) in 2019. Would be an upgrade over Klein (assuming he leaves in FA).

Not so sure the Rams would be willing to slap the tag on Cory.

Tre'Quan for Ted Ginn Jr? ... wtf? At best this would become a lateral move.

Saints need to find replacements for both via Free Agency & the draft.

The organization needs to stop ignoring the #2 WR spot. Michael Thomas is great but get him some help this off season.

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

Can’t argue with that.

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

I wouldn't mind a one year rental Lee from the cowboys if they don't resign him. Played 16 games last season, boom or bust, but would look good out there with Davis? Could be hard to throw on in the intermidiate also, both cover well and are tackling machines?

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

Yes.

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

Agreed.

Hard pass on Nelson. He can't seem to catch the contested passes.
Our current roster is filled with those types not named MT.

Robbie Anderson/Breshad Perriman are Free Agents I hope we target, then draft another one in the April.

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

Robbie Anderson. Would be the best fit Super Bowl babieeee. Love that guy route runner, soft hands fighter it all fits. What don’t is can we afford him?

Robbie is a guy I thought we were targeting pre free agency deadline in 2019.

But you're right St. T ... probably won't come cheap. Sticker shock is too great. We could potentially land someone cheaper, younger, higher ceiling @ 1/3 the price.

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

Sooner or later we will hit on a practice squad player , it’s what your saying is all about; the cheap we trying to hit on the cheap.period

Naw, the Saints MUST hit on a WR in the draft ... EARLY. Brees can't bail out un drafted guys anymore. When I use the word "cheap", I'm referring to a 2020 draft pick. If the draft is as deep as scouts have been projecting, we should be in good shape. We don't necessarily need another Mike Thomas but a solid #2 WR changes things.

We were handicapped with limited weapons most of 2019. Deonte was a diamond in the rough.

Jared played lights out latter part of the season but he's a year older.

Southlake Humphries, Austin Carr, Emmanuel Butler can't help us.

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

I didn’t mean u K I meant the saints are all about the cheap . When u have Drew freakin Brees throwing u the ball u better get open and catch the dam ball . If u don’t it’s —- Nexxxt ——

Tajae Sharpe - WR Titans

Not the "sexy" name however he's a good route runner .. not a lot of targets with Brown and Humphries on the roster. At only 25, he would come relatively cheap. As a #3, he still managed to get 4 TD's on the season.

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

I'm thinking he retires. I seriously doubt he would pick his family back up again after having just moved to west Florida.

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

That's the mistake some of the talking heads are making. Just because he is in the state of Florida doesn't put him in proximity to any NFL city. He moved to Destin.

Destin to Tampa - 438 miles.
Destin to Miami - 645 miles.
Destin to Jacksonville - 327 miles.
Destin to New Orleans - 250 miles.

Rivers was born and raised in Alabama and his family still lives there. He moved there to be closer to his extended family and still take advantage of the Florida tax breaks.

When the Chargers moved from San Diego he commuted from there to LA.

SD to LA - 124 miles.

None of those other locations would make a commute from Destin a reality and he refuses to live away from his family. One other factor is that he has an open invitation to be a high school coach like his father.

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

Josh is 32 and has performed poorly a few years now.

Hopefully the Saints don't bother calling.

** Edit - just read a tweet from PFF on JP's draft post as it relates to Josh Norman ...

"In his first 6 seasons in the NFL, Josh Norman surrendered just 13 TD's in coverage.

Over the past 2 seasons he has allowed 16".

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

Not to mention that he'd probably need a cruise ship to move them all. He has like what 15 kids?

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

Speaking of veteran cornerbacks ...

My hope is that the Saints brain trust find a way to retain the services of Jack Rabbit Jenoris Jenkins this off season.

Nine.

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

There was an article i saw recently showing how we could easily free up $54 million in 2020 cap. It does involve Brees staying active, however. Cap space is not an issue.

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

Let’s do it

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

It would only be done on an as needed basis. It basically means that cap shouldn't be an obstacle in free agency. Value, however, is another matter. Some teams are willing to overpay for a FA they dearly want.

Re: 2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 

Always believed in building thru the draft with a special pick up here and there on a up and comer like demario Davis .

Cut Kiko ...

Saints need to do what they need to do and retain Janoris. Solid, consistent #2 corners are difficult to find at this level. Would much rather retain his services than potentially over paying lesser #2 corners.

I'm pushing all my chips to the center of the table.

Imagine losing Jack Rabbit, Apple & PJ this off season. Suddenly#2 CB position becomes a real issue.
