Well yes, that was the plan. Unfortunately that didn't work out. I don't think all hope is lost though. We have a lot of deadweight on our team that are overpaid, that could be replaced with cheaper and younger alternatives. I still think we can get it all sorted out.

Did you honestly think he wasn't, all that "going to do whats best for the team" is just lip service.

Like? And what players are you talking about? I donīt see ANY way we keep Nicks and Colston at a reasonable price, resign Graham and impore the Defense.

Yep.. a 5 million $ difference for the first 3 years...that was the big holdup. I am so pissed and probably going to regret saying this, I hope he gets what he deserves and if he is having flashbacks right now, good!

Well wouldnīt be surprised if both Sean Payton and Brees leave the Saints for Dallas in the coming years. Nicks will already be waiting there!

I will never say this
" I hope he gets what he deserves" Drew is our team. I'm just AS pissed about this as everyone else. On both sides of the table. THIS does suck.
