I am not sure my post even criticized the Saints cap management, although it is lousy. I was just stating facts. Carr's contract makes it very hard to move on this year so we have to try something different that includes him next year. Thats a fact. If there is a team in the league with a ton of cap space that could afford to get out of Carr's contract this offseason its not us, it would involve massive salary cap ramifications, its not really an option. Fact. Also, Ram is having injuries and needing frequent rest. If we restructure his salary this offseason we set ourselves up for a $40 million dead cap his if we had to move on in 2025. The way things are going, its not at all clear we will want Ram under his current contract in 2025. Some tackles, like Kyle Turley for example, are not the type that all have long careers. All these things are facts.

Hers a fact: We’re in for some serious SUCKAGE.
