As far as Winston he's earned another chance to start IMO but he's not under contract with us for next year yet is he? Somebody could out bid us, right? |

Re: 2022 New Orleans Saints Off-Season Decisions
No. He's a free agent. Could someone outbid us? Sure. They could have last year as well, but he chose to re-sign with the Saints on that one year incentive laden deal. From all indications he'd be willing to do it again at $10 million, almost twice what he inked for last season at the contract base.

Re: 2022 New Orleans Saints Off-Season Decisions
Somebody could definitely throw the bag at him if they want him bad enough. Pittsburgh would be a great place for him. I’d do 2 years, $20 million guaranteed with the possibility of earning upwards of $50 million via incentives. That leaves him with the chance to make $25 a year which is about right for a starting QB.

Re: 2022 New Orleans Saints Off-Season Decisions
That's coming straight from GM Trent Baalke according to something I read a couple of weeks ago.
Here we go. I found it: Jaguars head coach search: Retaining GM Trent Baalke will hinder team's ability to attract top candidates "Baalke has also recently been pushing Alabama offensive coordinator Bill O'Brien to ownership as a possible candidate. O'Brien earned accolades as a play-caller under Nick Saban and has previous experience as head coach in Houston. However, the bitter end to his time there, and his history of power struggles and personality clashes, won't likely do much to stem the tide of public sentiment in Jacksonville against the early stages of this hiring process." |
