Blame? Front office and the unions.

right now our hands are pretty much tied. we are on the hook for to much money either by keeping players or releasing them. I believe the saints sold out for another run at the super bowl in the remaining years of drews contract using a 43 defense. well that went down the toilet last year and then switching to a 34 dug us deeper into the hole.

Now there plenty of big names out there but the level 2 and 3 FA are very good also. for the next two years this is the shopping market for the saints. then again they always shop here and to there credit have down very well.

Blame everyone? Aren't you forgetting the players whose estimate of value far exceeds reality in most cases?

As for the union (singular), are you objecting to minimum salaries for years of service? Are you objecting to payments into pensions and long term medical care? Are you objecting to preventing teams from locking players up counter to "free market" principles?

Just so you know, I'm bored and looking for a Monty Python style argument.
