Andy in Charleston, S.C., writes: I saw one Falcons fan mentioning the possibility of their bringing in DeAngelo Williams to complement Michael Turner in the backfield, but what about the Saints? If the rift between the coaches and Pierre Thomas is as wide as it seems right now, do you think they would consider dropping Thomas and picking up Williams instead? A backfield with Williams, Reggie Bush, Lynell Hamilton, and Chris Ivory would certainly be an incredible asset?
Pat Yasinskas: I like that idea. Williams is an excellent overall running back and can help any team in a lot of ways. The thought of him in a Sean Payton offense is very intriguing. We’ll see what happens with the labor situation and if the Panthers allow Williams to become a free agent. If he does, I think he’s a guy the Saints should consider strongly.
