Free agency isn’t going to take place for about another month, but already one player that might have the interest of the Saints is Vikings Veteran safety Darren Sharper. The 12-year veteran looks as if he won’t be back in the Twin Cities, and ProFootballTalk.com is reporting that the Saints may have their eyes on Sharper.

There is no question that the Saints defense needs to get upgraded in 2009, and Sharper coming aboard could be a great early free agency signing for a team that will have a lot of expectations on it for next season.
