Yes, the cap is going to skyrocket but I would rather not spend that money on a veteran who will give us two or three years maybe, but is already past his prime. I would rather draft a young quarterback and put these resources into building a better team for him to succeed. I understand that any quarterback that is available will need time to develop behind a stop Gap veteran.

I wouldn't quite call Derek Carr past his prime. He's only 31 years old. Barely out of his twenties. Brees played at a high level for eight years past that age and then a few more after that.

How the Saints can get under the salary cap and make room for Derek Carr

Re: I'd like to try and get Derek Carr

I'm hoping it's a wink, wink deal with Carr. Loomy says o.k. D.C. we want you to be the face of the Saints but don't want to give up picks so we can use to beef up the O. D.C. says I can live with that. Loomy says we'll wait for you to get cut then bring you in to sign a new contract. D.C says I'm fine with that Mr. Loomy. Loomy then tells D.C. load up and I'll take you to some of the finest seafood places money can buy. D.C. says I love it here already. That's the way it goes down, a simple wink, wink deal and we have our qb,

I’m okay with Carr. I’d be ecstatic to have Carr if Payton was here.
