Sean Payton could say it’s not worth going to a team that has limited itself via draft picks (like you always ***** about). Time will tell

My understanding is its not an extra year after the upcoming offseason they would have to wait, its an extra two years after the upcoming offseason. My understanding is we control Sean Payton through the 2024 season which actually ends in early 2025 so if teams bide their time and dont trade for him this 2022-2023 offseason they cant sign him free in the following 2023-2024 offseason because we still own his rights for the 2024 season so he only becomes a free agent in about March 2025 which is 2.5 years from now. Thats a long time to wait. If I am wrong let me know. I take ‘through the 2024 season’ to mean he becomes a free agent at the end of that season in March 2025, or at least whenever or 2024 season ends in early 2025.
