Agreed. I hope the Saints keep Maher around as long as possible.

Lutz is coming off a serious injury & subsequent surgery.

No one knows for sure if he'll ever be the same kicker. A groin injury on a kicker ? ... boy o boy. who knows how long that muscle will take before it's completely healed.

Take your time Will.

*** Edit

Maher has been waived :( .. as of today 2/22/22.

At least it's EARLY and he can latch on to a team rather quickly.

Yup. The Saints did him good letting him go early.

I hope they have him on speed dial - in the event he doesn't get picked up elsewhere. I'm not sure I can stomach another kicking carousel.

Good question about Lutz though.

21 - Bradley Roby

Any chance he returns? That salary is quite steep.

I know the NFL is a business, but I'd like to keep as much of the defense intact as possible. They were deep playoff contention good.

Bradley is the only player on the roster that has a significant salary that would not result in a dead money hit if released. Savings would be an even $10 million against the 2022 cap. The success of Adebo makes him expendable. I'd be surprised if we keep him as a part time player for that amount.

An extension/restructure is the other option, but once again for a part time player?

I got you but the NFL is a 17 game grind.

God forbid Latt or Adebo gets injured/hurt ... then what?

And I do believe Roby is gone. As well as PJ played in 2021, we could lose (free agent) him as well.

Yeah. We definitely need the depth. I wish we could keep him, but out of the entire roster he is the most likely to be released due to financial constraints alone. We really don't need to cut anyone else for cap saving purposes. Simple restructures will buy us $101 million in cap without letting anyone go.
