1) Jarvis Landry - we are one Michael Thomas injury away from having a sucky offence. Another receiver gives us options
2) Kwon Alexander - dude is a stud. Yes Pete Werner played well but Kwon gives our defense another stud
3) Darryl Williams - We need another RB and he is a perfect fit in case of an injury or suspension
All 3 are former tigers and are local. this should give us the edge to get them.

You know what gives an edge for free agents?? Money and winning. I don't think it really matters to them what city they do it in.

I actually do like Darrell Williams if at least short term. AK has us in an unknown and he's a proven commodity.

Are there no more Tigers you could think off of the top of your head to try to cram onto this roster?

OP might as well change his list to 5 and bring in OBJ & Minter

It's like you didn't even watch the Deshaun Watson sweepstakes. Money over everything

JL & KA, yes. DW, no. We need a RB that plays a similar style to Kamara.

I am all for signing one that plays like Kamara. There are none. I am suggesting signing players that will help the Saints and they happen to be local. Tell me why we don't need another receiver? Who other than Thomas and maybe Olave is better than Landry? All the free agents left are not getting top dollar or they would have already signed.

Call me crazy but in the NFL money is the edge.

I'm on board with Kwon, but I think that Ingram and Jones and the new kid Smith can handle things until Kamara returns from any suspension.

Kwon has been a beast since signing with us, and I'd love to see him back.

I think even if MT were to get injured, we still have a formidable WR opposite him, versus last year when we basically had nobody at WR. I just think Jarvis wants too much money but after the draft, he may consider dropping that price?

the times he's healthy, yes.... problem with Kwon is, he's not healthy all that much... on a cheap deal, sure, let's go for it... but his strength is his ability in coverage, and apparently that's a strong suit of our draft pick, Jackson, too, so i'm not sure how big a "need" he'd be at this point...

You obviously didn't read thoroughly. I specifically said "Yes" to being in favor of signing Landry and Alexander.

I am not sure about Landry, but the Saints do need another receiver to fill out the top 6.

Landry, OBJ, Jones, Cole, or Fuller would be a great addition.

Agreed with the last 2 but not Jarvis. Just too much money when we have Olave now. Sign Kwon to another 1 years $2 mil deal with incentives to go up to $5 million so he can hit free agency again at a young age. Same with Williams. I’d give him a 1 year deal a little above the vet min with playing and workout bonuses included in the deal.
