One look at where the New Orleans Saints were in relation to the salary cap following the signing last week of quarterback Derek Carr, and it might have seemed impossible to be able grab anyone of any significance.
However, this has been a pretty good week for the team with them brining in running back Jamaal Williams (the NFL’s scoring leader on the ground last season), defensive tackles Khalen Saunders and Nathan Shepherd, along with re-signing Jameis Winston as a backup to Carr.
How did all this happen, and where do the Saints go from here? What about the Pelicans? Is their season all but over? And speaking of over, how is your bracket? We talk about all this and more, as WWL-TV sports director Doug Mouton joins Jim Derry (who has a really bad Irish accent) on the St. Patrick’s Day edition of the Dattitude podcast (Ep. 141).
