His targeted return should be the Raiders game in week 8 according to that timetable.

Why put him on IR now when he should be nearing the projected recovery time for that injury?

Put the prima donna out to pasture with my cow. grade 2 turf toe; grade a milk.... lmao. Thomas is gone.

All That Money... just sitting the bench and scratching his ass.

I really don't understand your thinking. Are you upset with MT13 because he in injured? Or instead do you think he's not actually injured and just doesn't want to play?

It seems like in Mapcow world that the team should never invest any money into any player ever. Players like Cam Jordan are unicorns. Each and every player in the NFL is subject to injury. Injuries that will keep them out of games. Even the most talented get injured. But you have to pay the talented to stay.

So, are you saying that the Saints should become a farm team? That they draft talented rookies, work them on rookie contracts, then let them all go to free agency?

I mean Lattimore is injured too. Should we get rid of him too?

Explain it to me like I'm 5, please.

The prima donna has not played a full season with his team in 3 years....get rid of him. his injury is suspect, but convenient....Simple

As for Lattimore... he is inconsistent

Still doesn't clarify. We have many players who haven't played a full season in 3 years. Are they all prima donnas? Do we get rid of all of them?

Lattimore is inconsistent. So, do we not pay him and let him go to free agency?

I understand that you want more value and more production from players. What I don't understand is what to do when you don't (or more likely can't) get the players you seem to be wanting.

It looks like the Cardinals will be minus their starting left guard and center. And also their starting OLB. Not to mention Hollywood Brown.

Just to give an idea of what some other teams are going through with injuries ... the Ravens had 13 players listed as DNP today.

Brutal on many rosters.

simple... prima donna has not done squat for the saints for quite a while now....we should have gotten rid of him 3 years ago when he failed to stay healthy....move on... get somebody that wants to play and win.... fire him....

Trading Michael Thomas at this point is the worst idea.

The man was breaking records and got a huge contract to reflect his output on the field. After the contract, he suffers multiple injuries that prevent him from getting back on the field. The Saints would get very little in trade value for him and still have to spend millions on a contract for a guy that isn't even on the team.

Not to mention he is still leading the team in TD receptions this season and should have plenty more as soon as he returns.

Indeed Ice. His contract makes him untradeable. Plus he is effective on the rare occasions he can play. But, again, his contract dead money is practically indigestible…like Cam Jordan’s (I only bring that up because a trade rumor was posted earlier).
