His cap hit is 8m a restructure for Colston gains you about 2m. If you restructure contracts too early it hurts you even more later because the bonus money compiles.

Besides the superbowl conversion there are 2 plays by lance moore that stick in my head

2010 - vs steelers, we needed a TD badly, lance moore goes straight across the middle, just as the ball reaches him he gets smacked by polamalu and holds on for the TD

2008 vs packers, first offensive play of the game, drew throws a 4 yard pass to lance, who quickly takes it back inside and turns it into a 70 yard TD

Can't throw Colston the ball when we're running Jimmy Out, Jimmy Curl and Jimmy Post...

And I've had Jimmy among my keepers since he was a camp rookie and I still think the Saints need to return some focus to Colston...

Looks like we may be cleaning house. I saw this coming and think it's for the best but I'll miss him.

I like jimmy but I don't want to break the bank. I sure hope this is not a sign we are going to start to build our offense around the TE. I think Jimmy is the type of player to get injured and miss several games a season. Or at least be injured enough to be ineffective.

I'm very sad to lose a real Saint.

Go Lance. Kick ass wherever you land. But please, when it's time, retire a Saint.

I loved Moore.

Hope the guy gets paid elsewhere, but he is a system guy and I can see him being about as successful as Mech was.

Get your $$$ Moore then come back home to hang your jersey up.
