New Orleans Saints salary cap situation heading into 2021

bobdog86 · 01-21-2021, 05:25 PM

Well, one of the few things consistent in life is change. We all new it was coming. Honestly, for so many years I found myself watching our organization work through the labyrinth of the salary cap and often time being impressed how were able to get things to work....Loomis has a reputation of getting it done year after year, troll any forum from the south, people can't believe how we are able to do it. Yes, I'm a little masochistic, but I'm looking forward to seeing how this goat rope/circus plays out. I trust Loomis, to put a competitive product on the field. Didn't say power house or all world, but we probably wont be dog crap.

I'll be honest, i would rather be dog crap for a season or two than be a Jeff Fisher 7-9/8-8 team. Them teams get stuck in the mud, too good for a to get the best draft picks and to crap to ever make a run. The difference in a top 7 pick and 15 is massive most years,especially in the 2/3 rounds. Gives you that chance to get a haul of picks in a trade aswell.

I hear ya, and a lot of truth there......but an ass load of picks doesn’t guarantee success. A 10-6 even a 9-7 gets Ya a seat in the dance more often than not, where as 4-12 gets zippo. Some teams perennially have a lot of picks and don’t do sickum, some teams aka Seahawks get value and develop talent. The old days, pre Jim Mora, brought a lot of pain and we had plenty of draft picks each year.

I disagree, I want the Saints to win every time they take the field - you play the game to win.

Yep. PROFESSIONAL sports or otherwise. DO everything you can to be the best, better.
