The Saints have released 31-year old DE Charles Grant.  He played all 16 games for the Saints last season and he made 44 tackles, 2 tackles for a loss, he had 5.5 sacks, forced 1 fumble and he defensed 2 passes.  Grant played in 118 games in his 8 years with the Saints and he finished up with 424 tackles, 47 sacks, 31 passes defensed, 16 forced fumbles and 1 sack.  Despite Grant getting older the Saints will miss him because he’s a playmaker.
