    our center in 2006 will be a Kia, not a Bently...badump bump
     
  2. IF I could choose any player for us to add in FA..it'd be Bentley. He'd be a great start to fixing our OL. He's talented, versatile, young and considered a quality leader.

    I'd bet that Bentley told him he didn't want to be with the Saints because of their situation. I don't blame him, but it's going to be terribly hard to get players to play in NO/San Antonio.

    Me too. This would be a quality signing, and give us a strong foundation to build on.

    No doubt this would be a great sign but we are most likely not going to have the dough to pony up and bring him in.

    If we have to trade Abe because we cant afford him, then I would doubt that we would sign a player like Bently who will command top dollar at his position.

    Plus there is going to be crazy competiton for him. Teams like Dallas, Car, Atl, are all in line for O-line help.

    Sign the Saints center FA, and draft Giles.

    would love to sign Bently, but I'm 99.9% sure this team doesn't have the $$$ to do that.

    I think one of the reasons why we want to trade Abraham is because he has been injury prone too.

    I'm thinking they didn't re-sign him because they need cap room (just like us)...and they're going for more depth than all-stars (just like us)...

    so as much as it pains me to say this... we shouldn't take bentley
