The Saints Could Theoretically Give Derek Carr A True Pay Cut Ultimatum

Well, Carr didn't "adjust" his contract for the team that drafted him, so why would he do it in N.O.?

It's just crazy to me that Gayle and Loomis essentially gave him 100M guaranteed after coming off a bad year on a contract that paid him only 25M (guaranteed).

Everyone can say that the deal was average, but an average deal can still be an overpay if no one else is out there bidding.

This philosophy of kicking the can down the road has gotten the Saints where they are right now and it's embarassing. It's time for the executives to get this team in sound fiscal shape so that they can acquire YOUNG talent.

Gum smacking Loomis needs to figure this out. Better yet, step aside.
