Saints Make One Responsible Move - Marcus Maye to be Cut
Marcus Maye to be cut.
https://overthecap.com/saints-to-release-marcus-maye This will save $1.2 million by cutting him, but the team passed on saving even more, $5.6 million, with a restructure that would have kicked the can to future years. Now if we don't turn around and blow this money on Hunter Renfrow or whatever, at least its one good move. We need to get younger, and Marcus Maye was not getting younger. Marcus Maybe played 17 games total the last two seasons: the same number as Marshon Lattimore. |

Re: Saints Make One Responsible Move - Marcus Maye to be Cut
Not at all surprised & expected this to happen.
One LESS 30+ year old player we have to worry about missing games or in the medical tent. Anyways, I like Jordan Howden a lot. Played well as a rookie in 2023. |

If we spend money, it should be on oline or pass rush. But we should spend very frugally because if Carr, Ram, and Lattimore do not improve their performance/health next year it is critical that we are able to pivot. |

We need to invest in a mid round free agent veteran and then draft another rangy safety who isn't just a hitter but a ball hawk as well. Hopefully we can find better value than Maye in free agency this time around! |

With our 8 losses and having missed the “PLAYOFFS?!?!?” (again)… opposing QB’s AINT struggling with those 45 seconds.
