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.
