I really don't think the players supposedly involved and made aware of it hold a grudge or let hurt feelings to linger on. They are professionals and know what the deal is, and entering the FA period all of them udoubtedly, at least subconsciously, prepare for the possibility that they are switching teams.

Now, what happened with Mayfield and Ryan is different, especially the situation with Ryan.

You are correct that probably most of the anxiety created by the situation was amongst the fans, but that is nothing the Saints' FO should concern themselves with.

Very true. Saints “fans” were heavily trolling CJ about being traded and telling him he’s not worth more than Watson. They basically told him he was dispensable. We’re having conversations about the front office but with social media the players hear the people loud and clear. Like I said before, y’all don’t think Marcus Williams heard all the hate? Michael Thomas definitely hears it. So when these players say **** it and dip nobody can really be mad. Fans don’t often have loyalty to players.
