troutman Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Who will be your field goal kicker?No one knows! Not sure who is available, Do you know? It might come down to tempting some one to come out of retirement.Whoever we end up with will probably miss a couple of crucial kicks from 20 yards! It's amazing actually, How crucial the kicking game is. Punting and field goals. Back in the day, Ray Guy save the Raiders asses so many times.

treeduck Posted July 14, 2016 Author Share Posted July 14, 2016 Saints make an offer to veteran receiver Anquan BoldinPosted by Michael David Smith on July 14, 2016, 2:31 PM EDTSANTA CLARA, CA - OCTOBER 18: Wide receiver Anquan Boldin #81 of the San Francisco 49ers in action against the Baltimore Ravens at Levi's Stadium on October 18, 2015 in Santa Clara, California. (Photo by Ezra Shaw/Getty Images)Getty ImagesIt’s been a fairly quiet offseason for free agent wide receiver Anquan Boldin, but with training camps two weeks away, Boldin may be getting close to finding a team. Of the teams that have reached out to Boldin, the Saints are making the strongest push to sign him, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. If Boldin goes to New Orleans, he’ll reunite with Saints receivers coach John Morton, who was previously Boldin’s position coach in San Francisco in 2013 and 2014. The 35-year-old Boldin is coming off a down year in which he managed just 789 receiving yards, the second-lowest total of his 13-year NFL career. But a few teams have shown interest in Boldin on the theory that he at least has a little bit left in the tank. The Saints have one of the youngest and least experienced receiving groups in the NFL. Signing Boldin would change that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treeduck Posted September 7, 2016 Author Share Posted September 7, 2016 Drew Brees agrees to third deal with Saints after prolific decade with team http://i.usatoday.net/sports/_photos/2012/06/07/Source-Saints-make-new-offer-to-QB-Drew-Brees-HE1KKNGG-x-large.jpg METAIRIE, La. -- Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints waited until the 11th hour. But they finally agreed to contract extension Wednesday, according to league sources -- four days before the quarterback's self-imposed Week 1 deadline. The extension will be announced as a five-year deal but contains an automatic void to two years, sources told ESPN's Ed Werder, meaning Brees is contractually committed to Saints for this season and next only. His $20 million salary this season and $24.25 million for next season -- a total of $44.25 million -- is fully guaranteed, the sources said. The deal also includes a no-trade clause and forbids the Saints from using their franchise tag on the quarterback. In essence, the Saints get Brees under contract for one additional season but by spreading the contract over five years they significantly reduce Brees' $30 million cap hit for 2016, which was the highest for any player in NFL history. This is now Brees' third contract with the Saints after he originally signed with the team in 2006. In 2012, he became the then-highest paid player in NFL history with a five-year, $100 million contract. Brees was headed into the final year of his previous contract, with a league-high salary-cap cost of $30 million. Drew Brees is signing his third deal with the Saints, after a decade in New Orleans that has been the most prolific of any quarterback in NFL history. Photo by Sean Gardner/Getty ImagesHis decade in New Orleans has been the most prolific run of any quarterback in NFL history. His 48,555 yards and 348 touchdown passes are the most of any quarterback in any 10-year span, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. Brees has won exactly 100 games with the Saints -- including the only Super Bowl victory in franchise history, a 31-17 win over the Indianapolis Colts after the 2009 season. It's possible that Brees could pass Peyton Manning for No. 1 on the NFL's all-time passing yardage (71,940) and passing touchdown (539) lists before his next deal is up. He's on pace to do so within 3 to 4 years. Brees ranks fourth in NFL history with 60,903 passing yards and will likely pass Dan Marino for third in Week 2. He and Tom Brady are tied for third in NFL history with 428 touchdown passes. And he is still thriving at age 37. Brees has led the NFL in passing yards in four of the past five seasons -- including last year when he threw for 4,870 yards in just 15 games played. Re-signing him was easier said than done for a Saints team that has been spinning its wheels at 7-9 in each of the past two years, stretching the salary cap to its limits. Re-upping with Brees signals a desire to get back into playoff contention quickly, rather than going into a full rebuilding mode. Because of Brees' age, the length of his contract and the total amount of guaranteed money was expected to be a sticking point in negotiations between Saints general manager Mickey Loomis and Brees' agent, Tom Condon. Brees is expected to hold his weekly interview session with the media Wednesday afternoon -- as the Saints also go about the business of preparing for their home opener Sunday against the Oakland Raiders.
