The New Orleans Saints didn't have to break the bank for new veteran linebackers James Laurinaitis and Craig Robertson.
Laurinaitis' deal is worth $8.25 million over three years, with a chance to increase by $500,000 per year with incentives. Robertson's deal is worth $5 million over three years, with a chance to increase by $1.5 million per year with incentives. All of the incentives are considered "not likely to be earned," which means they won't count against the salary cap unless they are reached.
Laurinaitis' $1.8 million signing bonus is the only guarantee in his deal.
