Saints sign OL Khalif Barnes [update, released] (1 Viewer)

[SaintfromOZ]

Played for the raiders from 09-15 including last season, maybe some inside information on their DL also? I'm just thinking outside the box now... couldn't hurt though.

We have lots Of young players. We need veteran leadership and synergy. So I like this signing.

Well, to those who said we'll stand pat on the players we have...

...you have to give the FO their props.



IMO, Lelito is history.

Kalif Barnes is better than Peat, Lelito and the other lineman. He also becomes the replacement for Terron Armstead who may not be healthy enough to play the first couple games. They need to pick up 2 more guys. Khalif is a poor mans Streif

The team will just ignore the O-Line problems, as others have said...

It's as plain as day that we've ignored the o-line problems. The statistics speak for themselves. We did ourselves no favors by failing to address the issue this offseason, and now we'll probably pay for it.

Fun fact: Barnes is a blackbelt in Taekwando.

Hey, he can play.

Hm. Not sure if this is the only move we make. He's...got a record. And someone said "Imagine Brandon Browner, but as an offensive lineman."

"Barnes played both right tackle and left guard in 2014 but struggled heavily at both spots, finishing the year with a negative grade in pass protection and as a run blocker."


at least he'll fit right in

So, Schwartz gets cut and we sign Barnes? He has not done anything in years. I honestly figured he had retired.
