Mike is a dawg (again when healthy) but it's time to move on.

If Payton is still your HC ...maybe but I don't see MT playing for the Saints in 2023. Probably cut with a post-June designation (by pass the roster bonus).

Add WR to the list of "needs" on the roster.

Let's make sure we get a possession receiver who fights for those 50-50 balls.

No someone who see's the field instead of making bank in the hot tub.

I think CGM is about a 90/10 guy.

What’s the worst that could happen by not retaining Mike.
Something crazy like MT signing with Dallas and going on to win a SB.
My worst nightmare.
Heck, off the top of my head, there are 5 players the Saints decided not to resign, playing in Championship games this Sunday.

Good players seem to become household names elsewhere.
