Former #Saints C Luke Fortner has Signed a 1-Year Deal

Got to imagine that we still draft a center in the mid rounds. A one-year deal tells me this dude is only a rental

Looks to be a lateral move going from Mays to Fortner. Saints fans wanted to keep him according to their forums. It’s a 1 year deal. He’s betting on himself to have a monster year beside Lewis and Hunt and then cash in next year.

This was my thought as well

Seems like an okay move. Saints fans being mad about losing Fortner is a bonus. But can we get an actual center in the draft, please? It's only the guy that touches the ball the most every game along with the QB.

he started 10 games last year after replacing the injured center and no starts in 24

 

What happened?   I like the signing just trying to understand him

Curious indeed.  We have to be eyeballing a C in the draft (guessing third round).

Let’s just hope they draft a center for the first time since 2007 for Christ sake they’ve had so many good ones pass them by 

agree with you 

Maybe. The Panthers don’t value Center position in this offense

only position they aren’t paying for on that line is Center 

hard to figure with a little fella at qb 

regardless, probably will draft one in rd 3 to 5
