He deserves it. Our stay in salary help is extended lol.

Re: Report: Saints make Ramczyk highest-paid RT with 5-year, $90M extension
 

Him and Armstead are the two best tackle duo in football. We knew this was coming, couldn’t let him test free agency

Re: Report: Saints make Ramczyk highest-paid RT with 5-year, $90M extension
 

That should help afford a free agent or two.

Awesome move. Just Awesome. This will be a big help to any Qb we have going forward. Our Oline needs to be better than ever now that Brees is gone.

Ram is the man. Total stud. Glad they locked him up.

Re: Report: Saints make Ramczyk highest-paid RT with 5-year, $90M extension
 

Absolute no-brainer. He deserves every penny. Congrats Ryan!

Re: Report: Saints make Ramczyk highest-paid RT with 5-year, $90M extension
 

Agreed. Just wish Armstead could stay on the field. Man he's had a rough go the last couple seasons.

Re: Report: Saints make Ramczyk highest-paid RT with 5-year, $90M extension
 

I agree with Armstead injury issues but IMO when healthy he is the best LT in football

The Saints are going younger and healthier not older and injury riddled.

Where do you think his replacement will come from out of curiosity JP ?

Article from earlier this month on Armstead …

Re: Report: Saints make Ramczyk highest-paid RT with 5-year, $90M extension
 

Over the "last couple of seasons" Armstead has started more regular season games than any two season stretch of his entire career. He only missed two games in 2019 and one game last season.

Completely earned - even more so if he moves to LT at some point.

Mickey I don't know how you do it!!!

Re: Report: Saints make Ramczyk highest-paid RT with 5-year, $90M extension
 

I cannot yet see who gets what in the short term. Need to wait for the details of how the $60 million GTD money is apportioned.

Longer term it's simple what Loomis does. He charges against future increases in the salary cap. And for every year except 2020 he's been right on the money. The cap is already scheduled to jump $26 million next year. He'll pay Ramczyk out of those funds and further increases in 2023 and beyond.

SFIAH

It is extremely sound accounting fundamentals. We learned those principals in my favorite accounting course - Cost Accounting. Loomis has translated it into the NFL realm with the players being material cost. Labor, expenses, and overhead costs are on the management level in the NFL.
