Darren Sproles Traded to Eagles

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Another way of looking at this trade. Saints get Byrd (cap hit of $3.5m) and a fifth round selection for Sproles ($3.5m cap hit). Loomis strikes again....

Re: Darren Sproles Traded to Eagles

5th round is better than nothing which we were on track to get if we released him...and lets not forget, Peyton and Loomis are brilliant (or lucky) at finding great talent in the laterrounds of the draft. This also gives us an extra pick to be able to trade up if we need to go get someone in the second or third.

Re: Darren Sproles Traded to Eagles

So we get 3.5 million in cap space, and get a 5th rounder...

Re: Darren Sproles Traded to Eagles

Some analyst are blasting the move but when New England does it its no harm no foul. Sproles was good but against top flight defenses like Seattle or San Francisco he would do much of nothing. Best of luck to him in Philly but we will be fine with our power run game. Trust in Loomis.

Re: Darren Sproles Traded to Eagles

Don't forget traded Ivory for a 4th last year and then used both 4ths to move up for Jenkins. Maybe a case of using two 5ths to move into the 4th.Deep draft going to be talent around.
