2022 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook

Dead Cap situation in the next few years

After closer examination, it appears the dead cap for the players in the secondary take up a significant portion of the dead cap. It very likely the reason Ceedy was traded since they didn't want to tender what Ceedy wanted them to.

We're still cap strapped in the next couple of years, the result of the previous contracts, including Mr. Glass himself, Terron Armstead... and Drew Brees of course. Yes, the cap is going up. Nonetheless the cap is the cap. Why did they then restructure Vannett's contract today?

I think they might try to make a move.

Right. Maybe a LB or a TE.

Wait, oh damn Roach to IR?

He had a good camp & pre season.

I’d love to bring back Malcolm Brown. He was SOLID in New Orleans.

Yep I thought Roach has been a solid rotational player. Agree on Brown if he's out there.
