Saints GM Mickey Loomis has announced that the New Orleans Saints have agreed to terms on a five-year deal with unrestricted free agent TE Coby Fleener.
Mike Triplett of espn.com says he knows a guy who says the deal is worth $36 million. Wow, is this guy really that good? That's not JAG money. Since getting drafted by the Indianapolis Colts in 2012, he's played in 60 games with 45 starts, 183 receptions for 2,154 yards and 17 touchdowns. OK.
So there's your big splash in FA!! A shiny new, young TE for Drew Breeeees!!! to phase into the offense.
Fleener's not too active on Twitter, but a couple weeks back, he did a Throwback shoutout to his 2012 Combine experience...

Evan Woodbery's got the LULZ for us...
New #Saints TE Jacoby "Coby" Fleener is actually named after Redskins lineman Joe Jacoby. Not this Jacoby... pic.twitter.com/2t9IdHn180

And now Ralph has some questions for Payloo...
The team that fought Jimmy Graham tooth & nail over money, just gave Coby Fleener 36 million? Ok pic.twitter.com/batX55QtPY
