Nice going Bobby

Hope he inspires other players to spent some time with our youth. Looks like a good workout too!

That's it?

That's it?

The Saints signed undrafted rookie guard Shawn Flanagan after he tried out during this weekend's rookie minicamp, according to his agents Terry and Kris Braun.

Flanagan, a 6-foot-5, 310-pounder from the University of Sioux Falls played tackle in college. He began his career at Oregon, where he was a part-time starter as both a freshman and sophomore. But he transferred after failing to meet academic requirements.

That's all I'm getting from TP after a whole week-end? Geez...

Sounds like Payton agreed to go for help on D first as a welcome gift to Double-G

Mike Detillier versus John Fourcade

Mike Detillier versus John Fourcade

Our old quaterback wants a bruiser running back. As of Mike:

"The meat of the draft is picks 19 to 60, in my opinion," Detillier said. "That's where some of the best picks will be made. It makes sense to trade down and get an additional pick, especially if you don't identify someone in that 14th spot
who will have an immediate impact."

New Orleans Saints tender contract offer to restricted free agent offensive tackle Zach Strief

The Saints tendered a contract offer to restricted free agent offensive tackle Zach Strief this week - a one-year, $1.545 million offer, which means they would receive a second-round draft pick as compensation if he signs with another team.

Just wondering

And I’ll probably need some help to get the numbers right but….

If «Deuce Is Loose» (copyright on CSC), his present contract is obsolete, right? From what I see with Shawn Alexander, old RB’s, say 28 and over, ain’t that appealing for a majority of teams. Tomlinson will probably get a taste of it next year…

So what about Deuce can’t get neither money nor recognition elsewhere and still is available comes July? How much would that cost? With him having another 5 months to totally heal, I’d be very curious to see what he can do for ONE more year. As much as I like Thomas he ain’t be the one moving the pile….

Could Deuce step on his ego, come back at a reasonnable price, get it done and goes from Hero to Super-Hero in a great year for the Saints? Heck, I like the scenario.

I know, I know. I’m a romantic….

Who knows, maybe one of those guys can follow Lance Moore's path one day.
