I didn't include QB, FB, TE(we have 3 decent options already, but we might draft one), OT(if we add one, it will probably be acquired through the draft), C, K, P, LS. Using NFL.com Free Agency Top 101
RB - We need another legit RB. Ingram is good, Hightower is unsigned & doesn't have many years left, Lasco is a question mark, Cadet is a 1 trick pony, & Murphy just flat out sucks.
#9 - Adrian Peterson - old, injury history, & too much $$$.
#33 - Eddie Lacy - He'll get starter money, & he's not as good as Ingram. Not an option.
#42 - Jamaal Charles - Knee problems.
#52 - Latavius Murray - Power runner. Not a passing down RB.
#56 - LaGarrette Blount - Same as Latavius Murray, but older.
#72 - Rex Burkhead - Great receiver & spread back. Could be a steal for us imo. Still young.
#89 - Christine Michael - Explosive runner. Not good in the passing game, & has bad vision.
#90 - DeAngelo Williams - 34 years old. I'd rather Hightower & Lasco.
WR - Assuming we don't trade Cooks...we really just need a deep threat/solid WR for a reasonable price. If Cooks leaves...then we need to replace him with a legit WR. I'm assuming he doesn't leave, so I'm just targeting good deep threat/solid WR for a good price.
#10 - Terrelle Prior - high risk/high reward.
#37 - Michael Floyd - Horrible year in 2016. Buy low option.
#59 - Kendall Wright. Potentially really good slot WR. Buy low with potential.
#65 - Cordarrelle Patterson - Still not a polished WR. Gadget play WR & returner.
NR - Stevie Johnson
MLB - Hightower is the only guy that played in a 4-3 last year.
#5 - Dont'a Hightower - complete LB.
#21 - Zach Brown - complete LB.
#39 - Kevin Minter - Might not have reached his ceiling yet. Only played 2 years as starter.
#51 - Lawrence Timmons - Age concern, but is still a 3 down LB. Could be a good stop gap for the right price.
NR - Gerald Hodges

4-3 DE - I'd like to draft a DE in the 1st/2nd round, then sign one for depth.
#30 - Jabaal Sheard - Great in 2015. Got benched in 2016, then got it together & produced in the playoffs.
#50 - Jared Odrick - not interested.
#57 - Mario Williams - not interested.
#60 - Dwight Freeney - Should be a cheap 1 year deal.
#69 - Datone Jones - played in a 3-4 last year, but he's more suited as a 4-3 DE.
#91 - Devin Taylor - 4.5 sacks as full time starter.
#97 - Chris Long - 4 sacks & led the Patriots in QB pressures.
NR - Connor Barwin - 5 sacks in 2016.
***I didn't include the 3-4 DE's: Lawrence Guy & Margus Hunt
4-3 OLB - 1 guy
NR - DeAndre Levy
***There are 8 guys that played 3-4 OLB last year, and might be able to transition to a 4-3 DE or 4-3 OLB: Elvis Dumervil, Julius Peppers, DeMarcus Ware, John Simon, Lorenzo Alexander, Erik Walden, & Jarvis Jones.
CB - Need a legit guy.
#24 - Logan Ryan - Great tackling CB, & can play inside/outside.
#40 - Prince Amukamara - Steady production. Safe pickup.
#44 - Morris Claiborne - Injury prone. Had his best year last year...then got injured.
#54 - Brandon Carr - He's been solid. Getting older.
#83 - Nolan Carroll - Solid. Could be good value.
#85 - Captain Munnerlyn - Cheap nickel CB.
#94 - Nickell Robey-Coleman - Small corner relegated to covering the slot.
NR - Brandon Flowers, Davon House, Sterling Moore, Darrelle Revis, Shareece Wright, & Phillip Thomas.
SS - Need a guy that can cover.
#19 - T.J. McDonald - Great in run support.
FS - Need a guy that can cover.
#63 - Bradley McDougald
#98 - Jairus Byrd - I'd take him back for cheap if nobody else wants him.
#100 - Darius Butler
NR - Kendrick Lewis

I'm so with you on Pryor. Think about what he did last year as the only target on a sorry team with backup talent quarterbacks and compare that to what he would have here.
Posted on 3/8/17 at 6:54 pm to TigerLunatik
Doesn't he want like $10M+ though?
Posted on 3/8/17 at 6:58 pm to 1BamaRTR
I'm not sure what he's asking for. I just think it could be a good fit, especially in the redzone.
Posted on 3/8/17 at 7:02 pm to GMoney2600
man would this place go nuts if somehow, someway
the saints signed both Kevin Zeitler and Ronald Leary and our o-line would be the best thing we have ever seen
you cant say we don't need two guards, just that the basic logic is that we cant afford to sign two, but what if they found a way? I mean they do have some money to work with and we cut "someone" loose if need be to do it

we need a RG and a RT not 2 guards
Posted on 3/8/17 at 7:07 pm to TPecoraro23
you see any RT available anywhere? I sure don't, so that a position you have to draft for if you want one
Posted on 3/8/17 at 7:09 pm to GMoney2600
Woodhead
Torrey Smith
Chance Warmack
Nick Fairley
Datone Jones
Zach Brown

Peat will be our RT eventually.
Posted on 3/8/17 at 7:11 pm to Fun Bunch
Landon Turner and that other Guard udfa fellow may be someone soon
Posted on 3/8/17 at 7:13 pm to Chad504boy
Still need to sign a guard. Kind of why I'm intrigued by Fluker because he can play both.
Posted on 3/8/17 at 7:53 pm to GMoney2600
I want Dre Kirkpatrick. Don't kill me
Posted on 3/8/17 at 8:00 pm to jamal
Kind of want a healthy Danny Woodhead. Feels like Payton has been looking for the shifty receiving back to fill that Sproles role since we traded him. Woodhead could do that on the cheap.

Mine isn't that far off. Probably won't have enough money, but this would be my preference.
RB - Rex Burkhead
WR - Ted Ginn(assuming we keep Cooks)
OG - Kevin Zeitler
DT - Nick Fairley
DE - Datone Jones
MLB - Zach Brown
CB - Prince Amukamara
Draft a DE & Safety in rounds 1 and 2. OT in round 3. Draft a RB if we can't get Burkhead or Woodhead.

Posted on 3/8/17 at 9:35 pm to GMoney2600
Danny Woodhead to the Ravens so scratch him off.
Posted on 3/8/17 at 9:40 pm to GMoney2600
Calais Campbell signs with the Jaguars
Tony Jefferson signs with the Ravens
Danny Woodhead signs with the Ravens
Malcolm Smith signs with the 49ers

Yep just saw that. Looks like Burkhead or the draft for us at RB.
