1. Will be interesting to see how much Saints paid. Cowboys wanted to re-sign him and Seahawks wanted him

2. Wonder if this alters the Saints draft plans at all

Spencer just turned 31 in Jan 2015. For his whole career until 2013, he was a very good strongside OLB opposite DeMarcus Ware in the 3-4 defense. As a DE in the 4-3 last year, he recorded 27 combined pressures across 457 defensive snaps.

Anthony Spencer was ranked 21st (out of 59) 4-3 DEs by PFF in 2014 with a +2.1 grade.

Hope #Cowboys bring back Anthony Spencer (at the right

price). 4 QB hits, 11 QB hurries, 1 sack, 1 FF & 1 FR for a TD in

final 4 gms of 2014

But going back to a 3-4 team is better for him. The last time he played for Rob Ryan in a 3-4 (in 2012) he had 11 sacks and was a Pro Bowler

If we sign Anthony Spencer we'll draft a WR at 13

31 years old and often-injured, he wants a chance to start, and wasn't going to get it with Hardy now in Dallas. Spencer will move to OLB in New Orleans. It should be noted when he had his Pro Bowl year in 2012 under Rob Ryan in a 3-4, DeMarcus Ware attracted most of the attention away from Spencer. Cameron Jordan and Junior Gallette will not be drawing attention away from Spencer.

Eh.

 

Everyone will be sucking the Saints off like they signed a key peiece, Saints fans will act like we did when we signed Decoud  and Harper in the off season last year of signing a former pro bowler, when really this is just a solid veteran signing that alters te team but won't change the coer needs.

 

 

But lol @ the saints drafting WR at 13. Okay.

How can they afford to sign anyone at all?

 

10 days ago, G Jahri Evans signed a 3 year re-structured extension to lower his cap number this year by $4 million. There are no more easy fixes for the Saints this year from converting roster bonuses or base salaries into signing bonuses. They will now have to add years and money to existing contracts, and I doubt many more Saint players will agree to sign extensions until they know if Breesus will be back after his contract expires in March 2017.

      Not sure who said it first, but Tepper is the correct answer. Still, I'm gonna go with Kasay keeping it inbounds. If, you subscribe to the butterfly effect version of time travel consequences.... When we win SBXXXVIII everybody's lives change: Moose never breaks his leg, We win it all again in 05. Tommy Jone is unknown and Peppers stays home, Champs once more 2008. No artificial pig heart turning JR into a creepy weirdo, no lockout, no Clausen. Fox and Jake ride off into the sunset on their own terms. No 2-14, no #1 pick. But, no laptop, no Blinn, 3 years behind The Golden Calf of Bristol, we still get Cam. JR let's him grow his locs like he always wanted, Smitty sees Cam in a new light. Dreads swinging, (and Smitty with his 3 Lombardis behind him) Cam is old enough to get those calls. No Manning narrative, Cotchery TD, PI against Talib on Philly Brown, 10,000 RTP calls and Kony Ealy SB50 MVP. No Jeans Fridays, no Tepper. KB doesn't slip on his own meatsweat mid-route in SD, Cam becomes the 1st QB to win 10 straight SBs. Retiring after being elected 47th president of the US of A, Cam ushers in the Permanent Proletarian Revolution across the globe, Xi Jinping bows in awe. "ẄøŘƙƐṛ§ őF ŧĤə ŵØRłð, ŮŊÏŦƐ!!!"

      I mean not surprised the Patriots took him in and aren't trying to push him out. They've been the most morally bankrupt team in the NFL for a long while. Wouldn't be surprised if Vrabel has his own dirt on Kraft/Brady and other assholes from that organization over the last couple decades.
