Deuce re-signing w/ Saints, Chase Daniel anyone??

from ProFootballTalk.com:

A league source tells us that veteran running back Deuce McAllister will be rejoining the Saints in time for Saturday's home playoff game against the Cardinals. The Saints could easily clear a roster spot by cutting quarterback Chase Daniel, who was signed two weeks ago for the regular-season finale, given that quarterback Drew Brees was given the day off. McAllister was released by the Saints in the offseason, and he has since signed with no one. He has a four-game suspension hanging over his head, given his membership in the StarCaps six.

not sure why they are bringing him back though...

UPDATE: 1) its official 2) Daniel will be retained. they placed a DT on IR to make room.

Another Update: Deuce will not be playing, only leading the team on the field and will be inactive.

I would give Case Daniel a look, simply because the Saints seem somewhat interested. He is like a luxury to them who they'd like to have, but not at the expense of other more pressing needs. They're probably are willing to gamble that he will still be there, if and when they decide to throw him a bone.

Sirius NFL stated they thought it was for 2 reasons.....1 Duece has meant a lot to the city/organization and are just brining him on b/c they want to do something nice for him (even though he isn't needed) and 2. The dome reaction from fans when AZ comes to town. They said they had reports it was strictly a "symbolic" move.

once he's introduced pre-game, you'll understand why. If all he does is stand on the bench and wave a towel, it'll be enough.

i'm sure he'll be a good guy to have around when they are picking themselves off the floor because they just lost to the cards.

he's known plenty of disappointment being a saints player for so long so he'll be able to help them through it.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
