Rather have a CB if we are going to give away draft capital… This is not a need..

It's kinda difficult sitting on B2B Super Bowls with an undefeated record and calling anything a need.

It's all about moving chess pieces around for the playoffs, no? And ultimately Gay is a really handy chess piece for 2 teams we're very likely to have to deal with at some point in the post-season.

Yeah, there's a limited lane in which we might really be able to put him to good use, but for marginal cost, who cares?

If you're churning the bottom 3-5 spots on the roster, 'need' doesn't really enter the equation. It's all about matchups and backups. And in that regard, Gay could end up quite useful.

It's not a need move which is what makes it great, actually. It's just a perfect fit. Willie Gay could be installed in our defense and day 1 he knows all the assignments and is up and contributing right away. If he costs a 6th rounder or something and doesn't hurt us much on cap you pull the trigger.

Can he play Left Tackle?

Gay isn't bringing anything back. Maybe swap 7th picks to move back a few spots and that's all he will bring. In baseball terms basically "Future Considerations".

Count me in on a Gay reunion.

Saints fan sites are all calling the signing a failure and are all baffled as to why he didn’t break through as a starter. This makes him a prime candidate for a prove it “Mecole” style reunion, if Spags sees a need for him.

I know my vote doesn’t count, but I certainly saw a need for him against Lamar, Allen, and most damagingly, Jalen Hurts. Gay had a game-swinging blitz against a previously unstoppable Jalen in Super Bowl 57 - and with so many duel threat QB’s in the AFC, it’d sure be nice to have Willie back next year.

We def could have used him in the SB against Jalen running.

I think our LBs were fine in the SB. Probably the lone bright spot.

I'd welcome him back if the price is right. He swallows up the flat.

Our linebackers did great against Saquon, but Bolton and Tranquil just couldn’t close the gap against Hurts. Jalen extended several drives with his legs and it was the main element that kept Philly’s offense more effective in the first three quarters than San Fran’s in SB58. As elusive as Jalen is, he couldn’t avoid Gay in SB57 and it was critical as it forced their first punt and swung the game back to us.

He’s Willie Gay

we need him back for his ability to hype up the team and the fans with some swag surfin

I came here to post this

I think there are certain personalities that a team needs and Willie G's hype man persona is valuable to get the team juiced.

I think CEH was the same type of guy which is one of the reasons they kept him around so long. Positive energy like a MF

It felt like we were a bit flat down the stretch last season and I think we might have let too many of these "hype men" type of players walk out the door unfortunately.

I would be fine with a low price reunion.

Paying dudes to be cheerleaders? No thanks.
