First off, Leilung, that's a great avatar.



I see where trading Deuce makes sense for the team, he would have a lot of value on the market and you might be able to use him to get a good CB or LB or similar. I just don't think it's that simple. Deuce likes spending time with his family in Lena and he has the car lots in Jackson and several other business ventures going on. There's even rumblings about him running for political office in MS.

Deuce is a smart guy. I think he understands that he can extend his career by playing with Reggie and taking fewer snaps than guys like LJ, not to mention there is a chance to do something great with the Saints. I think he also understands that he has a legacy in the Gulf South.

It would not surprise me if Deuce elected to retire rather than be traded.
