Ever since they drafted Colston Payton crowned himself a draft and free agent genius, but he has failed miserably at both. To be in a position where you have to be extremely creative just to stay under the cap and still have no talent is inexcusable. Brees is the only reason the Saints won't have the first pick in the draft.
