Saints: Free Agency and The Draft
Posted on 1/14/18 at 10:29 pm
Posted on 1/14/18 at 10:29 pm
CONTRACT ITEMS:
- How much will Drew Brees cost ?
- How many years for the contract ?
- Mark Ingram.... do we trade Ingram ?
- Vacarro..do we pay $ 8,000,000 a year to re-sign ?
- Time to let go of Fleener ?
DRAFT & FREE AGENCY NEEDS:
Draft WR (Speedster)
Draft Tight End (Pass Catcher)
Draft LB
Draft Penetrating DL
Draft OT and OG in late rounds
Free Agent WR
Free Agent LB
Free Agent OT for depth
**** QB: don’t waste any Draft pick or FA $ on a player not deemed to be the future. Go through training camp seeing what Taysom Hill is about. If he is not long term answer and Brees is signed for more than a 1 yr contract..... then skip this draft and FA per QB and get one the following year.

Ingram is not a F/A he had to be All-Pro to be a F/A.

I would love it if we drafted Mark Andrews TE out of Oklahoma. Dude is an awesome pass catcher for a TE.

Same thing I said last time we were here. If Drew Brees wants to win a Super Bowl once more, he should have it in him to not demand an outrageous contract that hamstrings our ability to support him. I don't know the numbers on contracts - it's not a care I have - but, if the argument is $10 or $15 or $20 million, I mean what the frick ever. If his final years are to collect money, screw it. We cannot win a Super Bowl in the next couple years without him, but we cannot win it or in the next decade if we pay him too much. He has to understand this...he has made over $100 million...he's not hurting.

You need to add another pass rusher in FA or the draft.

It will be important to resign Okafor. He was playing fine and there are bigger needs on D. We need better safety production and a badass, athletic LB. we can get both in the draft.
We can get WR and Jimmy in FA

Free agency will be more important for our win now window. We were spoiled this year with the rookies who contributed, but that is very rare in the NFL
We need a vet LB and WR at least. Rookie OL or TE can help early on

It’s simple. Resign Drew for 2 years. Let Vaccaro go bc he wants too much. (We more than likely resign him tho) Breaux is a free agent you let him go just bc if his injuries. Fleener walks. Try and resign Kelemente and strief. And re sign okafor. In free agency and the draft you take. An opposite WR to Thomas. A pass catching TE. DT (if fairly can no longer play). Another pass rusher. Safety if Vaccaro goes. LB either middle or OLB. And the. A CB to replace Breaux with.
