Do like the Jets and the Raiders. Trade Payton to Dallas for all of their draft choices and their linebackers. Be proactive in this. If he wants to go "home" let's get something for him.

First of all, why in hell would SP WANT to coach Dallas? Second, what the hell happened to make him want to leave? Third, if SP leaves, my opinion of him would be that he's a POS and better not come back to LA and after all this BS, I'm done with the NFL and football all together. That will be the straw that breaks my back with the NFL. However, if that does happen I hope Benson hires either John Fox or Gruden because SP can't beat those two consistently.

Oh, and we should leak that he was in contact with the team during his suspension so he can't be reinstated.

Payton signed a new contract last season with the Saints, but the NFL voided it because of language in the contract that they weren’t happy with.

I’m not sure how Benson can sue the league and win when the NFL has the right to void any contracts they want.

Benson could possibly bring an action for tortious interfence with the contractual relations of others. If Benson thinks he can survive a motion for summary judgment, then it would be worth it. Just because the NFL says it can void contracts or reserves the right to do it, doesn't mean that will be enforced.
