Cutting MT to draft another WR were going to end up paying the same amount or more money doesn't make sense to me. If we already had another a WR lets s ay Callaway with MT production this year I would understand that a bit more but MT is your best option hands down....Why did they sign MT anyway if you're going to trade him when his value is more now than ever as far as the saints go. I honestly feel like the trade talk has no real substance really believe its just blog talk
I dont believe no one pays the what the Saints would want from a trade for MT....IDK I feel like trading MT rn would be bad for tht business the Saints are in it for so they say....WINNING

File this in the "WHY NOT LAST SEASON" folder:

Jared Cook. Los Angeles Chargers, TE
Cook earned $1 million for catching 48 passes this season, his highest total since 2018. He hit the incentive number exactly but fell four touchdowns shy of the eight TDs he needed for an extra $500,000.

My take WhoDat brothers is this:

Prepare for Jameis to be our QB. Two years invested. Affordable. Performed admirably. He's awkward as hell but the team loves him.

"Saints Cap Issues" is the new global warming - it's the fear we hear year after year. Yet we are but pimples on the earth's a$$.

Convert salaries. Use the money to surround crab legs with talent.

That probably includes MThomas unless the situation is untenable. And only a team who thinks to themselves "How can I get another Antonio Brown on my roster" will be interested. Al Davis is dead so it ain't happening.

Armstead. Yes. While it seems like he's been here 15 years, he's only 31 at the start of next season. Leader. Cerebral. Monster games.

Peat. We're stuck with that jar of mayonnaise unless someone else likes gross condiments more than we do and I don't see that as possible.

Ruiz. Has to improve. Can he with a more stable line? I think so. But I hate Michigan so I won't be hurt.

Trequan. Pass. Only idiots pull their helmets off and then immediately try to head-bump their helmeted teammate.

PJ Williams. Keep him. At 29 years old he should retire in New Orleans as the guy who gets paid to start on of three positions when called.

Kwon. Energy. Skills. Obviously a cyborg. Keep him.

Trevor. Good luck on someone's practice squad man. You've earned it.

We have the convertible cap to keep any player we want ... easily.

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.
