Mike Detillier gave me his views on the Emmanuel Sanders and Andrus Peat free agent
signings by the New Orleans Saints. Mike believes these signings will have
"SEAN PAYTON'S FINGERPRINTS" on the contracts for the Saints.

Mike, the Saints have one of their first big free agents. Wide receiver, Emmanuel Sanders will be coming to New Orleans. Mike, you know how Coach Payton coveted Sanders or tell us a about that and what his signing means for the Saints?
Well, I think when it comes down to veteran free agency, the key is finding the right fit guy and I think Emmanuel Sanders is a perfect fit for this offense. He's thirty-three, but he still plenty fast…he's a very crafty route runner and he gets out of those cuts and breaks so smoothly. He doesn't lose a lot of speed when he comes out of the breaks. He’s sure handed. But the important thing is that he knows how to work that short to intermediate area that plays to the strength of your quarterback in Drew Brees.
