That’s what the headline would be if the Saints had no to little leverage. Let that resonate with you over time and one of these days, you’ll get it.

We got bluffed IMO. It’s not a horrible deal, but we did not extract maximum value in fear of getting nothing back in return.
Yup. That very real fear of getting nothing in return.

If we had more leverage we wouldn't have had to worry. We'd just say, "Hell no. We'll just trade him to that other team. Oh, wait! There isn't another team. Crap."

You don't get bluffed when you are holding a dead hand.

I would like it a lot better if we actually had a competent coach. I love him as DC though.

Agree. I wish we were able to get a bit more from Denver. But I'm sure the time frame to consummate the deal was very tight and it's far from a normal trade situation. And with whispers of the whole Harbaugh thing, Denver may have had extra leverage we were not privy to.

Do the Broncos pick up the tab on SP's last two years?
