New Orleans Saints
Potential UFAs: QB Mark Brunell, TE Dan Campbell, PK John Carney, DT Kendrick Clancy, TE Darnell Dinkins, OLB Scott Fujita, C Nick Leckey, CB Chris McAlister, TE Billy Miller, S Pierson Prioleau, S Darren Sharper.
Potential RFAs: DE Remi Ayodele, RB Mike Bell*, OT Jammal Brown*, OT Jermon Bushrod, DE Jeff Charleston, OG Jahri Evans*, DE Anthony Hargrove*, S Roman Harper*, ILB Marvin Mitchell, WR Lance Moore*, S Chris Reis, WR Courtney Roby*, OG Zach Strief*, TE David Thomas*, RB Pierre Thomas, CB Leigh Torrance*, CB Usama Young.
Analysis: Seventeen of the 28 Saints players who will become free agents will be restricted in an uncapped year, which should give the Saints much more flexibility than they would have had with a salary cap in place. GM Mickey Loomis should be able to keep a promising, young core of players in New Orleans by issuing Jammal Brown, Jermon Bushrod, Jahri Evans, Anthony Hargrove, Roman Harper, Lance Moore, Zach Strief and Pierre Thomas one-year tenders, since all of them will be restricted without a CBA extension. Each of them is either a full-time starter or significant contributor. Loomis will also focus on re-signing two key unrestricted free agents on defense. Scott Fujita and Darren Sharper will both hit the open market, and each will warrant interest from other teams. Sharper could be particularly expensive since he's having a career year. Other restricted free agents who should see moderate-to-low one-year tenders include DT Remi Ayodele, RB Mike Bell, DE Jeff Charleston, WR Courtney Roby and S Usama Young.
