I know this is likely wishful thinking, but I can't help myself drooling over the thought of the Saints somehow pulling this off by signing these three free agents.
(Info on players obtained from NFL.COM) -
Calais Campbell - There's no other player quite like Campbell, as thoughtful and savvy as he is physically overwhelming at 6-foot-8, 300 pounds. Still only 30 years old and able to play in any system, he would make a great "get over the hump" piece for a team looking for a title.
Dont'A Hightower - Author of two of the most important plays in the Patriots' last two Super Bowl victories, Hightower also has emerged as the best blitzing inside linebacker in football and a leader on New England's defense.
A. J. Bouye - No NFL player raised his value more in 2016 than Bouye, who started the season as Houston's fourth cornerback and finished as a Pro Bowl-caliber starter on the league's stingiest total defense. He will emerge from the shadows to become a household name once he gets a mega contract.
The Saints' defense desparately needs upgrading, and there are several other free agents, besides the three listed above, who could also come in and have a dramatic, difference making impact.
Ok .. I'm a big boy, I can take it .. let me have it
As much as I would love it, I would dread the endless whining about us spending our cap.
