Who are we to say? None of us truly know what the teams margin to the salary cap is and we're not signing the checks so we can't worry about whether or not it's worth it...

All we can do is trust in Loomis/Benson to do what they think is best for the team

Graham already accounts for 7 mil and change against the cap and we have 1.5 or something in room. A long term deal will free up some room this year b/c it will be backloaded, like Byrd's contract.

Jermichael Finley? No thanks. I'd rather play with a third tackle.

Terrible OP. You want to get rid of one of our best players because he's got a contract situation that's not gone as smoothly as possible, and what's even worse you want to sign crappy ass Jermichael Finley? My god...

I'm sorry, business or not, JG has come off as looking greedy IMHO. The saints took a chance on him and developed him into the TE he is now and he seems like he is biting the hand that feeds him. Take his stats and line them up against the games he faced a top 15 defense. Doesn't look to good now does it ? That being said, I believe he is the best TE in the NFL right now but still has ALOT to learn about being a TE.
