Most of them will play for the Saints next year. Which guys do you think play elsewhere?

QB - Luke McCown
RB - Khiry Robinson
RB - Tim Hightower
TE - Ben Watson
TE - Josh Hill
TE - Hooman
OG - Tim Lelito
OG - Senio Kelemete
DT - Kevin Williams - might retire
CB - Kyle Wilson
S - Rafael Bush

There are a few others, but these are the main ones that get playing time.

Would it shock anyone that khiry(or possibly spiller) gets moved for a 6th?

Hightower, Saints have 4 RBs on the roster and unless he takes a team friendly team he'll take the money and sign elsewhere

I'd like to keep Khiry. He will probably accept league mininum and is very productive. I'd love a 6th for Spiller. Hell, I'd take a 7th. Spiller counts 4.5 mil against the cap. We can't cut him ,b/c he would only save us $750,000.

6th is too cheap for him considering our lack of depth

I agree. I'd want more than a 6th for Khiry.

Won't be able to keep both, I think Khiry has enough tape to get a decent contract somewhere else. I think we can hold onto Hightower for a low cost deal.

Bush is gone

Wilson should get more on the open market than the Saints will offer.

The Saints aren't getting anything for Khiry or Spiller. The RB position is devalued now especially since both are coming off injuries last season.

Hard to get a team to give you a 6th round pick for a player you don't have under contract.

So glad Snead and Breaux are locked up another year or two.

S - Rafael Bush

He gone. Was shocked he didn't sign with ATL last offseason, wouldn't surprise me if he does this offseason.

Is Khiry even going to play football anymore? That was a pretty devastating injury for a FA who was never a starter or superstar player.

He was still under contract with us.

Bush can leave, even when he got playing time he was very underwhelming. Wasn't white and him the ones who blew that bomb by kaep a couple years back?

I think Hightower needs to stay. He showed he could be a complete back last year. Hopefully he will come cheaper than most.

If he showed he could be a complete back, why would he stay here for cheap where he is guaranteed only going to get partial playing time?
