TD doing TD. Maybe we see a signing today? Poe? Hankins? Logan? Tru extension?

Im pretty sure theyre just a money laundering organization right now.

Probably trying (poorly) to win football games. Just a guess.

It's like people forgot that they traded away Jimmy Graham two years ago and everyone had this same freakout and the offense still produced.

Receiver is the most replaceable position on the team and they need talent and depth at other places, especially for the post Brees years.

Yea, I think it's a good trade for the Saints. Short, speedy receivers are a dime a dozen so to get a 1st and 3rd for him is pretty good. I realize Cooks is very good, but it's not like he is irreplaceable.

For lulz, but not from a roster/needs stand point.

Trufant, Alford, and Poole are a very good trio. Even Jaelin Collins looks like he'll develop into something decent. Alford is mid-grade talent, but he's the one we have locked up the longest at this point.

Sure, but that's outweighed by how little we need Corners, I think.

Now... if he was a safety, I'd probably agree.

We could probably use him in Tampa but first there would need to be qualifiers. Is Sherman married? If so is his wife on Twitter? If she is is she batshit crazy?

If the answer to any of these is no then we don't want him.

Sherman is almost worse than Miko Grimes, because his mouth gets him in about as much trouble AND he's a locker room cancer to boot.

Grimes was excellent last year (led NFL in passes defended) but he's like 35 now so that could fall apart at any moment. Miko wasn't a problem at all from what I can recall. Sherm is still probably very good, but he's a heck of a headache and our defensive leader is happy warrior Gerald McCoy and I don't see that being compatible with Sherm's hyperagressive attitude.

Awesome, Pioli brings in another of his loser slob castoffs. KC came out ahead when they signed Bennie Logan, a far superior player, to the same deal. Poe looked like a Joe when I saw him this season, and it was supposed to be a contract year.

They made two very good pickups in Jackson and Baker and resigned a bunch of their own promising players and didn't overpay for anyone so it was a good free agency period on paper.

What do you want to know?

Basically you can divide the off season into 5 parts. First from immediately following the super bowl until free agency is a mostly dead period where the only interesting things happening are players announcing retirement or getting arrested for doing stupid poo poo. Second you have free agency which begins with the official new league year. This is a time when free agents and unsigned players are able to negotiate with whichever team they wish to see if they can get paid a lot of money somewhere. The first 24 hours of free agency are especially exciting because most of the really good players get signed within that first 24 period. Third you have the time from after the first week of free agency until the NFL draft where everyone obsesses over who their team will draft and reads and makes 1000 mock drafts a day put out by "experts" who rarely make more than 20% correct selections in their analysis. After the Draft you have the second dead period where nothing really exciting happens except for maybe more arrests of players and this lasts until training camp begins, usually in July. Training camp and the preseason are the fifth period and they're mostly exciting for seeing which of your starters manages to get themselves seriously injured without playing a meaningful snap of football and if your quarterback reports to camp 30 pounds overweight. There's always some story about some scrappy undrafted free agent who's definitely going to make the team only to get cut in the first round of cuts too.
