I think you can add Terron Armstead onto the list of re-structures/extensions.
Personally, I’d place the transition tag on Vonn Bell and let the market dictate his value. If someone goes all in to sign him away, then the Saints can either choose to match or let him walk.
I think Grant Delpit will be there at 24, and if Bell leaves, he’s the man
I'd love Delpit in New Orleans. He's sort of a tweener FS-SS like Bell has become. Combine that with the SS-SCB we have in Chauncey, and that makes Marcus Williams expendable next year.
What sells Bell for me is that he's grown into a do-it-all safety. Dennis Allen's scheme needs 2 safeties that are almost interchangeable to disguise coverages.
As for Armstead, I agree, he's due an extension and locking him up for a few more years would be ideal, especially if it helps alleviate our cap situation. But I'm on the fence on whether or not this year is the year to do it. I guess, if it came down to it, I'd extend him this season. But it would be awesome to have that option next year.
