Saints interested in DJ Fluker

Also should be noted that he's a New Orleans native

lot of beef at guards for sure.

I like it if its at the right price.

Would still want to draft a G/RT somewhere in the middle rounds.

No, he's a troll. How he hasn't been banned I have no idea.

dude is a good guard and can play tackle in a pinch. Would be worth a look.

you love throwing around the word "troll" anytime someone doesn't agree with you. What's so trollish about my statement? Fluker would be a terrible signing. He's an unmotivated slob who doesn't care about football. One of the laziest players in the league. All he cares about is collecting a check. You want that type of player in the locker room? The Chargers have one of if not the worst offensive lines in the entire league yet they still decided to cut him when he was only going to make $8 million this yr. If that doesn't throw up red flags everywhere then I don't know what to tell you. So please quit trolling the board by making people think this would be a good signing

Nah, plenty of people don't agree with me and I'm wrong all the time.

You are a troll. You know it. I know it. You're part of the grillnut group. Why even deny it? We both know it for a fact.

All of this might be true and how you should approach posting. However, he graded out pretty well at G from my understanding.

"only" $8 million?

yes when he was a 1st rd draft pk for them and they refused to pick up his option. As I said the Chargers have one of the worst lines in the league and they still decided to cut bait.

Last offseason, the Chargers exercised the fifth-year option on Fluker’s four-year rookie deal, and he was scheduled to make $8.82 million in 2017. His career got off to a solid start. He played right tackle in 2013 for 15 games and finished with a positive grade at Pro Football Focus. He also earned a spot on the NFL’s All-Rookie Team. However, things took a turn for the worse in his sophomore campaign. While Fluker played every game that season, his production sharply declined, so the Chargers decided to move him inside to right guard. That plan didn't go well either, as Fluker struggled at right guard for the past two seasons. The Chargers finished with the 31st-ranked offensive line in 2016 and surrendered 36 sacks as well.

He graded out at 63.7 last year which isn't great but not catastrophic. It is sometimes hard to know if its as a result of how bad the rest of the line is or its him. He has the ability and played well year 1 and 2.

It would depend on the price.
