Lets ASSume the rumor is true, What else needs to be done?

I am not sure the Saints are a high enough revenue team to bring in both of these guys...Samuel I would imagine will bring in $20+ million to sign and Briggs probably $15+...throw in Will Smith, Colston,and others, and that up front cash seems like it would be too high.

I think that's a better argument although we bring in just as much money as the Colts who have several high-paid guys from Manning to Wayne to Harrison to Freeman to Mathis to now Sanders and Clark. It can be done but you just have to make sure you do it with the right guys. And I am sure Addai will get his when he becomes a FA.
