Do the Saints plan on offering a player too? Any deal involving the Lions sends Shaun Rogers.

Lions are thinking of giving them Rogers AND a third? Damn.

Probably not a THIRD and Rogers. But any deal would include Rogers and perhaps a lower pick depending on what each side thinks is fair.

Looks like the Saints could be the front-runners now.

I'm guessing it will probably be for a draft pick.

UPDATE: According to a league source, the Jets will receive a conditional draft pick from the Saints based on Vilma's production, likely for the 2009 draft.

Tatupu and the other elite MLB in the NFC are good players, but Vilma is on another level. He's got everything you want physically and he's arguably the smartest player I've seen on the field.

Good catch Saints!

Third, possibility of second.
