    Are you sure? I thought it was reported a couple of weeks ago, that they won't resign him. If that happens we get nada.. I know we get 4th or 5th pick for D-Rob

    "Adam Schefter writes that the Saints have done what was expected of them with their draft picks. The team will not re-sign Vilma, and thus will save themselves higher draft picks for their trades for Vilma and Shockey.

    The Saints did not re-sign Vilma, and will not attempt to do so until he becomes a free agent, thus the value the Jets and Giants receive now can be determined.

    The conditional fourth-round pick the Saints traded to the Jets for Vilma will become a third-round pick in 2009. The Jets used the Saints fourth-round pick in 2008, but they will have to return a fourth-round pick to New Orleans this April.

    Although he’s headed to free agency officially, I’ll be shocked if Vilma signs with another team eventually. I’m sure they’ll draw it out a little so it looks convincing, but I’d expect to see Vilma back with the Saints."

    So as usual the Jets don't know how to write a contract. That's our illustrious GM who Johnson loves so much.
