Summer Doldrums
7/2 The Saints
are heading towards training camp at the slow, tortuous pace of
a hot summer's day. The Saints haven't signed any of their draft
picks, but they should in the next four weeks. The Saints are also
negotiating with WR Marques Colston on a new deal, this after a
long negotiation between Saints and one of their most familiar player
agents, Joel Segal. Those meetings netted DE Will Smith, the Saints'
top defender, a new
$70 million extension, making him the richest Saints and
the third-richest defensive end in the league. While the Saints
haven't suffered any major injuries, there were a host
of minor knicks but the Saints escaped without major news
breaking. After the minicamp, the Saints shook
up their front office, firing top talent evaluator Rick
Mueller, hiring a cap expert from within the NFL's labor relations
department, and promoting from within. |
