![]() Many will restructure and absolutely should be back. Strief, Spiller, Hawthorne and Colston can all be major role players next year. |

Re: 5 Saints Who Should NOT Be Back Next Season
Couldn't agree more with this. I would recommend sending him to Buffalo that's pretty far from New Orleans.

Re: 5 Saints Who Should NOT Be Back Next Season
I'd keep Colston and Spiller on massive paycuts. I'd keep Strief on a massive paycut too and keep him in a backup role or an extra lineman on the goal line. Brandon Browner has to go. David Hawthorne never lived up to the hype. John Jenkins played well IMO. I don't see why we'd cut him. He's not expensive. Jahri Evans needs to take a huge paycut or be released as well.

Re: 5 Saints Who Should NOT Be Back Next Season
Spiller has ALWAYS been a tease. Great talent. Flashes of said talent. Never healthy. Never consistently produced. Browner, Spiller, Colston, Ellerbe, Hawthorne, and Humber need to be gone. Restructure Brees. That will free up around $19 million. Draft the best player availabe. HOPEFULLY on defense. Although, the Saints need a G, TE, and WR on offense.

Hawthorne carries a 4.5 million in cap hit which half would be in dead money. Colston also would make sense because cutting him would give us 2.3 million in dead money but free up over 3 million. The first cut I would make though is Morstead. A punter is not worth 4.45 million a year. He only carries 1.2 million in dead money and would free up 3.25 million. Morstead, Hawthorne, Colston and Ellerbe would be my guess. 11.25 freed up just with those 4. If they wanna stay make them eat crow and sign at league minimum. |
