That's because Winston is looking for a contract and, therefore, he has to put out a positive narrative on his recovery.

Thomas is under contract, so he has no need for such things from a business point of view.

He's barely 25 and has incredible range. Does he take a bad angle from time to time? Sure he does but who doesn't? They all do.

Let me be clear, his range is a trait only a select few FS have at this level.

This is a perfect example of the over the top harassment which he has been displaying for weeks.

Of course, unless I've missed any of his recent interviews saying he's 100% returning for 2022.

Three (3) moves I'd like to see the Saints get done in Free Agency:

1. Sign/Extend FS Marcus Williams
   
   
2. Sign a WRz (e.g. D.J. Chark, Christian Kirk, Will Fuller)
   
   
3. Sign all our RFAs/ERFAs

Are you leaning to QB in draft then?

I'm super pumped for the pending WR free agent class

No idea if/when the league will hand down a suspension on AK however ...

KC Chiefs RB- Darrel Williams becomes a FA next month.

Capable starter however with the emergence of Clyde Edwards-Helaire & McKinnon, Darrel has fallen down to #3 on the depth chart.

Even with Kamara we're going to need help at that position. Time to start looking under rocks.

Saints need to be aggressive here. Average joes = average results.

I was high on Michael Gallup before the injury (torn ACL) but I have a feeling Jerrah will take care of guys who put in work.

Quite possible he may end up re signing with the Cows.

Good selection for FA WR's. Chark would be my 1st pipe dream but might overprice himself, I personally could go with any of the other up there but I really like Goodwin and Williams also. Going to see what type of O Allen has instore.
