    That's a really solid return. Probably would have had to offer a 2nd to beat that.

    I agree. Saints may be a fire sale, but they are getting some good value in return.

    Ellerbe will probably be cut but that pick is valuable. Glad we didn't offer our 2nd.

    Cutting guys at the behest of Brees does not lend itself well to the "cutting Brees next year" idea :-(

    Wouldn't be shocked if NO will parlay these new picks into trading up for Amare Cooper or Kevin White. This draft is seriously stacked at WR.

    I don't follow NO that closely. Are any of their linebackers worth looking at for an upgrade?

    I picked him up in 2 of my fantasy teams last year and paid attention to his game for a while.

    Not surprised to see he got traded, he is not a physical WR and yes he got decent speed but just not a very good WR with size and good hands.

    I will compare him to just a little bit bigger Keyshawn Martin, not worth to trade any picks for him.

    Surprise to see Spiller going to the Saints, I thought NE is going to pick him up?

    anyone think Max Bullough will get a shot at starting next year in place of Reed or opposite Cush?

    I think the guy has potential--or is he just a special teams/bench guy?

    Nick Fairley signs with Rams is a good pick up.

    I think he has turned the corner and not looking like a bust but rather be a solid player, this division will be very scary on defense. There will be some 10-6 games next year in this division.
