WWL - AM870 | FM105.3 | News | Talk | Sports - Kristian: Saints Back On The Field For Week 2 Of OTA's
The Saints are back on the practice field today, as they open week 2 of Organized Team Activities. Coach Sean Payton said that the coaching staff is doing more teaching than evaluating at this point. "We're installing offense and defense and the same in the kicking game," the coach explained last week. "There are a lot of new faces and a lot of learning." Payton and the Saints have boasted 100% attendance in the offseason conditioning program and OTA's.

"That's the profession that we play and the world we live in," Greer said. "It's results driven. As a collective unit as a group, we didn't have the very best season. P-Rob, Pat is going to be a guy that we're going to rely on tremendously. He's one of the most athletic corners and athletic players on our team. He has the potential to be a Pro Bowl-caliber player.

New Orleans Saints -- OLB Eric Martin, Nebraska: As the Saints transition back to a 3-4 defensive scheme led by new coordinator Rob Ryan, Martin has a good chance to stick on the roster as a versatile pass rusher. He was a little-known reserve as an underclassman at Nebraska, but the light bulb seemed to go on for him as a senior, finishing 2012 with team bests in sacks (8.5) and tackles for loss (16.5). Martin has only average physical tools, but he's able to win with intensity and initial burst and power to dominate blockers one-on-one using his length effectively. There are some concerns about his ability to digest an NFL playbook, but if the Saints are patient, Martin could be a diamond in the rough.

Harper had been scheduled to have a $7.15 million cap figure for this year. But the Saints trimmed that number to $3.66 million. They did that by reducing Harper’s base salary from $5.25 million to $840,000. But the Saints helped cushion the blow by giving Harper a $2.91 million signing bonus.

And Canal Street Chronicles liked the idea so much that they stole it. No, really, there’s a confession: "Such a great idea, in fact, that I’m stealing it. [Saintsational, as I'll always remember him]" And, truthfully, it is a great idea. Okay, I’m mainly pissed that I didn’t think of it myself. I could have a big blogging job with NBC and everything that goes with it: astronomical rent, great restaurants, a feeling of living under siege. Actually, that kinda sounds like New Orleans, so I’ll throw in: no concealed carry permit. There, that’s the difference.
