2022 New Orleans Saints Off-Season Decisions

BakoSaint · 01-15-2022, 03:11 PM

We should offer the Texans Michael Thomas and Taysom Hill for Deshawn Watson. This allows the Texans to save face of trading their franchise QB for peanuts by instead trading him for former fantasy football greats who they can pass off as a fair return, like when they dumped a healthy prime Hopkins for a 2nd round pick but dressed it up with David Johnson who was clearly done being valuable but allowed the trade to look like getting an all pro for an all pro. Then once we have Watson, we should trade him for some draft picks it wouldnt look good for the Texans to take, like two second rounders. In the end, we get picks for Thomas and Taysom that nobody else would give us, and the Texans get to tell fans they got two electric starters for Watson when really they had to dump him for spare parts. After trading Watson, we resign Winston and use the picks to draft receivers.

NFL teams don’t package multiple players in trades (MT and Taysom in this example.) That’s a baseball/basketball thing.

Trading MT ? No offense to Callaway or Harty (they both had respectable seasons), but have ya'll paid attention to what we trotted out there for pass catches & route runners?

Who is replacing Mike's production in 2022?

Saints aren't trading Mike.

Yup. Player for player trades in itself is pretty rare, not to mention multiple players. Too many hard salary cap implications. That's not a issue in baseball or basketball.

Yeah. That seems pretty obvious, K. I don't see why some don't get it.

We can replace MT’s production with AB for cheaper.
Neither will play much due to injury and attitude, and AB will produce a similr volume of excuses on social media to MT. Bonus AB less likely to punch teammates in practice.

I wouldn't mind seeing 2 good FA WR's brought in. Keep Calloway and Harris and let the rest of those no catching cat's fight it out. Good year for FA WR's. Then we have options to see what Thomas puts out this season, puts him in a spot to perform?

Other people will think differently than you. The fact that you don't get it is obvious. The fact that you have to broadcast that you don't get it is what makes you obnoxious.
