I'd rather keep Mike Bell and Reggie. I think Reggie is extremely important to this team. whether he is a pro bowler or not, just his presence changes the way teams try to defend against us. I hope we keep Reggie

Here is my take on it. You sit down with Reggie and see what kind of deal you can work out long term. Reggie needs to face facts that he isn't a feature back. Therefore he will not get feaure back money. But he is a important key to this team. You try your best to get a longterm deal done. If he won't go for it, you ship him off to Seattle. Take whatever picks you can get for him and add to the defense or maybe a TE ( Shockey isn't getting any younger )and TE is very important in the Saints offense. Then maybe in the 3rd you can get Dexter McCluster from Ole Piss. He would fill Reggie's spot nicely if the Saints lose him. If that doesn't work then you talk to LT about coming to N.O. LT will be available after the draft, I just can't see anyone snatching up very quickly.

For the life of me, can't figure out why we need to sign LT.

There is no doubt that Reggie is >>>>> than LT.
But Reggie is also >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> more expensive than LT Would be so that (along with Drews aching man love for LT) is what makes this a real possibility.

I dont know about you guys but I have been paying attention to L.T. the last 3 years hard, and I havent seen any explosive plays out of him or and hard nose runs. It seems to me from watching football that L.T. has lost whatever it was that made him so great (youth). Think about it, every big explosive play by a running back from San Diego you have seen the past 3 years has been by Darren Sprolles. I am highly opposed to bringing in L.T. over ANY of our current backs. I would rather have Mike Bell than L.T. at this point in there careers.

Signing LT for $1.5 Mill a year and giving him 8-12 carries and 4 catches a game is a no brainer.
quote:I'm all for dumping Reggie's salary to sign a DT/DE/OLB but LT is not the answer. The Saints running game is sound as ever and adding a probable distraction that hasn't proven to be productive in 3 years has no chance of improving it.
If he replaced Reggie that would be $6.5 Million dollars in savings! That's a new DE or DT or OLB for Christ sake.

if we sign LT for 1.5 mil wouldn't he be making more than our starter?

Reggie is the starting RB I believe. So he'd be making a LOT less than our starter. That's assuming, of course, Bell is the one to go.

He started 10 games this year at running back, including the NFCCG and Superbowl.

I'm kinda on the fence with LT yeah he hasn't been producing lately and age is a factor... But you can't forget about all the players on the 2010 super bowl team that wet looked at the same way

LT can cry on Tom Bensons shoulder. Come get a ring before you retire!
