If he signs elsewhere he hasn't been traded just moved as a FA because the Saints refused to match the deal. The picks received are compensation picks. Its not like Loomis teading him for a 1st/2nd and third this year.

agreed but with any player movement were a team receives compensation for the player lost from the other team is basically a trade. i know that falls into nit picking.

but in principle by the saints not agreeing to match is basically approving a trade.

The main point is we can get our picks and not sign Jimmy and have no dead money.

including the saints was polite business practice on my part. something that is second nature to me.
