Brees is still under guaranteed contract. So cutting him he still hits our cap by like 15 million at the least (I don't have the chart in front of me) and we WON'T EVEN HAVE HIM to play. So he'll still be guaranteed money from us and can pick up a huge contract elsewhere and make double salary. It's stupid.

If we really wanted to get rid of Brees, ask him to restructure, and if not, DON'T resign him after next year. Otherwise, cutting him lose is the stupidest thing we could do. Just sayin'.

We really can't afford a defense because we wasted HUGE cap on flunkies like Byrd and Browner. Byrd is the MOST disturbing for his lack of production vs. what he is paid. Browner is just disturbing in general, but gets paid less than Byrd. It's sad, cutting both would improve our team, but cutting Byrd (at least) is another guaranteed contract that will hit our cap. STUPID!

We should NEVER have let go Roman Harper or Tracy Porter for that matter. Both are productive in the NFL and don't get paid as much as some of our dummies do!
