Re: Observations from the Saints loss to the Texans
Carr's $30 million 2024 salary is fully guaranteed. Although we could cut him and get under the salary cap to take the cap hit sooner and avoid his 2024 $10 million roster bonus becoming guaranteed in March, the move would virtually paralyze us from making any other moves to upgrade or rebuild. Given these circumstances, Carr will presumably go into 2024 as the starting QB. We owe it to him to bring in a new coaching staff and draft oline in every round to give him a chance.
Also Grupe was behind the same lousy oline as Carr. Also Ramczyk is becoming a very old creaky young man. Its not great that we are restructuring his contract every year to create a giant dead cap hit when he is done. We should leave his contract as it is and pay his salary so that the dead cap will reduce in future years and if it becomes time to move on we can or if it becomes time to negotiate a salary reduction we have leverage. I think the percentage of the oline that was healthy today is higher than the percentage of grey matter in PC and Marrone's brains that still works. Coaching is a problem with oline no matter who is healthy. Even if they are all healthy we are still pretty well garbage on oline unless we are playing the Pats. |
