    The good news is, he was one of our highest cap figures. A whole lotta green just got freed up.

    Nick Easton to sign a 4-year deal tomorrow. Best available; hope that's good enough.

    Missed all is last season with a neck injury and mostly played LG the year before... Be interesting to see what his guaranteed money looks like...

    Unless Unger just sprung the retirement decision up last week, maybe we could've given Mark the money?...

    ESPN says Cam Meredith is taking a pay cut, freeing up another $2.3mill under the cap. Close to signing Jared Cook, according to other reports.

    Not going to downplay Ingram's contributions, but history suggests the Saints will turn up an unknown gem in the undrafted rookie pool. That's how we found Pierre Thomas, Chris Ivory, Khiry Robinson and Travarius Cadet.

    cook could get us to the sb if he opens up those seam routes. expect kamara to be the biggest beneficiary....now if we can come up with a true #2 receiver
