Adam Schefter: I expect the Saints to have some level of interest in Mike Vrabel [mod edit]

My mind is starting to warm up to the idea of Vrabel. If not Ben Johnson, who might have his sights set on a bigger media market, then Vrabel would be a stabilizing hire.

Monken would represent a similar gamble to that taken on Payton in '06. An assistant hungry for the opportunity sounds good to me. Wish he was younger, though.
