Rod Coleman officially a free agent...

I'm not sure how much our system favors TEs, but I'll agree with you that 800+ yards and 8-10 TDs a year would not be a stretch at all for Crumpler with Brees pulling the trigger.. Hopefully our QB's willingness to spread the ball around, his previous use of TEs and accuracy would sway Crumpler to sign with us..

Our system heavily favors the TE position, especially running out of a two TE position.

Payton is all about match-ups, three wide, power formation, single back with two TEs, five wide, multiple motion... Crumpler is tailor-made for this offense -if he can get back to his pro bowl level.

I wouldn't sign Leftwich, though. He has a slow release that is exacerbated by his long wind-up, and he is injury-prone.

I'd like to see the Saints make a run at Josh McCown as a back-up to Brees. He strikes me as someone better suited for this offense.
