What players on our team have the ability to get BETTER?

cool, see above comments on few players

my stock watch off the cuff report, I relate to contracts/keepability as well as performance...

UP
Graham to superstar
David Thomas steadily more significant
Charles Brown to possibly replace Bushrod
Tennant to replace Goodwin
Nicks- some think he might be better than Jahri. Affording the highest paid guards in history could be tricky tho
Jahri- not as good of a year as '09, needs to return to be on HOF track
Bushrod still can improve (he's not studly but not a terrible LT)
Strief I've wondered if he might be a better RT starter
Ivory to learn how to block and catch
Arrington might finally force his way into a role
Meachem has a role, improved, but has more potential
Lance Moore could reach all pro level beyond '08 numbers
Daniel as a continuing backup might score a draft pick in a trade one day ala Charlie Whitehurst
Brees reducing the picks back to his career average will keep him in the top 3 discussion
Ellis had his best year ever and can elevate to elite
Ayodele went from stopgap to kinda okay, still can do more
Casillias we were looking for him to be a starter
Patrick Robinson can reach a point to challenge for starting
Porter/Greer- either could elevate to all pro, might be who can stay healthy enough
Jenkins has All Pro potential at FS
Hartley showed all you need to be the kicker of the future after his return, no more slumps
Morstead will do some pro bowls before he's done
If the replacement LS can stick that's upside

DOWN
Shockey- age, injuries, and budding cheaper players mean he could be gone or back in a decreasing role renegotiated
Bushrod- could not be re-signed and replaced or moved to RT or backup if affordable
Goodwin- performance wise he still could have some miles left but the contract will determine if he's back at all
Stinch- may have had the most decline from '09 of any Saints player. Being not too spendy contract wise and a clubhouse leader might keep him employed as much as his play.
Devery seemed to lose some quickness which is his job, recurrence of his old dropsies
Will Smith and Alex Brown could be at diminishing returns age
Gay- contract, age, injuries, budding stars at CB make him unlikely to return
Prioleau GW likes but what is he 40? lol
Sharper only back if he takes Saints money offer to be backup mentor again
Kyle- an old LS that IRs can't have much left

Flat
Shanle is what he is
Dunbar and the other assorted rotating LBs ditto
Vilma defined very good player maybe not elite
Colston Mr. Steady
Harper is how he is, good pts, weak pts, I dunno if I think of him nearly as highly at bigger money


Special category for all RBs other than Ivory: I can imagine a scenario where they clean house and say let's pay somebody that can stay on the field. I can also imagine PT & Reggie (Hamilton, Hill, etc)back at affordable deals and doing better than ever. The ying yang RB dichotomy I call them.

Based on this year, Brees could make better decisions, if that counts.

If the staff doesn't believe that Charles Brown is ready to become a starter, then we definitely need a OT in the draft. Stinch's performance went way down and he needs to be a backup next year, and Bushrod failed to make any progress from last year. We can't win with an average LT and a mediocre RT.

Call me crazy but I still think Roman Harper's best years are ahead of him

I wouldn't expect anyone with your sig pic to say anything else.

Crazy
