NFL network flashing Johnson signed by Saints to a 1 year deal for $2 million.

TE

Sorry, Eric Johnson TE.

WOW! 1 year 2 mil would have been perfect for us. I wasn’t to excited about the possibility of us signing him before because I thought he would want a long term deal. This would have been great for us for one year.

So TT... who have YOU signed? oh yea nobody. Come on TT your wallets bulging and you need to make a move

Low risk move.

But I'm comfortable with the Franks/Lee/Alcorn triumvirate.

The best thing about Free Agency is that since it became a race, it's much more exciting to watch.

Wait...

It's not Eric Johnson, it's "the oft-injured" Eric Johnson. He's a David Martin type.

He didn't really sing for that, did he ? Gosh that low deal makes me we could've actually had a shot at a signing by March 7th.

More talent
Better Blocker

When healthy he's just flat out a better football player than David Martin

We no longer have a running back, so.... this is the LEAST of our problems.

Yep. He's singing with BB King tonight on Bourbon street. They've got a new tune called "Move me to San Antonio"...

I would like to see what Alcorn can do. He seems to be the right mold but I haven't seen much of him because of his injury last year.

That last happened in 1993, when at 7 he was healthy for the full year Pop Warner season.

Let me know the next time David Martin has 82 catches for 825 yards in a season.

Move

Really, it's a very smart move by Johnson. He's gonna play for a very good QB, in a very good offense run by an offensive minded coach. IF he stays healthy, he will have a great year then cash in on a HUGE more money than Graham got pay-day.
