20 million ? A year ?

It's been a full two weeks since that report. Expectations are possibly lower now. However, a contract can be structured in a way for him to "save face" with a $20 million average that is realistically far less with incentives and such. With the way the cap is about to explode a backloaded deal should be very manageable.

All signs point to Jacksonville and that crazy Christian Kirk contract this off-season.

Yeah, he got $18 million per. And then you had Tyreek Hill ($30 million) and Davante Adams ($28 million). The article says that $20 million would be tied for 6th highest receiver number in the NFL.

As long as the cap keeps rising that CBA mandated percentage (48% to 48.8%) of revenues going to players has to go somewhere. We may be able to get him for less if the market slows now, but in the long run it may be best to bite the bullet because $20 million average may become a bargain.

Don't see us adding another WR.

RB, however.... Sony? Darrell?

We resigned 3Quan, Lil Jordan and Deonte.

There are 10 WRs on the roster now.

I'd love to have Jarvis - I think he could be the missing piece.

There's not a huge cap hit for cutting these younger players. But I just don't see us shelling out a ton of money for a 3rd WR unless something drastic happens.

I'm probably wrong.

Honestly, I didn't think the Saints had any shot at getting Mathieu.

I'm just not as confident as most when it comes to our supporting cast at WR.

I hope the Saints find a way to make it work with Landry. Adding one more proven chain mover, playmaker, route runner won't hurt one bit.

Landry won't take hometown discount is the issue... So be it .

Saints were clearing over 30M for Watson and no one saw that coming.

Let's see how this plays out.
