Strange to be even in the mix
Maybe they are not confident in Lewis staying fit long term. That secondary could be something special though. Norman -Lewis - Breaux-Williams

Maybe they move Williams to Safety

I can only surmise that this corresponds with a Brees restructure, and maybe a Byrd restructure as well. Hell, probably 3 or 4 more restructures too.

Wow. This would be great. Guy is legit.

We do need help at CB. But can we honestly work this one?

lee909 · 04-22-2016, 06:28 PM

Yeah easy,small cap hit this year and Brees extension
59ml of cap space next year,though Brees eats a chunk of it

Good point. We can't afford a big hit this year, but the next few years look great.

We have a 3 or 4 years Brees window, max out the cap every year until its over. Don't cut costs yet while we have a superbowl QB on the squad.

Whatever it takes.

Well that was over barely after it started...

Glad that doesn't happen too often...

I just saw on wiki this receiver is a free agent. And I don't really know if he was even bad for KC. He's got the size we want for sure and Payton said speed is just a bonus so.......
