Shocked by the move, but glad it took place.

Got to say I am impressed with how well Browner has handled it.

If the Saints cut Browner, it will cost the team $6.3 million against the salary cap. Browner is due $5 million in salary and bonuses, in addition to $2.75 million guaranteed. If the team waits until March 9 when the new league year begins, they will save $950,000 in cap space and $2.25 million in cash.

Classy exit. We all get frustrated. Just wasn't the right guy for the particular job, and that's as much our fault as it is his. Best of luck to him.

Can't wait to see what terrible free agent signings we make this time around in March!

Got to tip my hat to him for the way he is going out. However, the poop samich called dead money we are eating doesn't taste right.

I still think large part of why he sucked here was utilization, or lack thereof. But I guess when u get in the face of our new DC, have all those penalties along with media meltdown, this is what happens. Was hoping he'd turn it around here, but glad he kept it classy.

It's a shame our local media can't. These guys have been trash talking him all year, and today on the radio they were right back at it with good-riddance music and cheering on-air.

I honestly think the majority of our local sports media crew isn't up to snuff. Chritian garrick and Guss kattengill and a few others are total morons if you ask me. They ride the fence like a bad politician and probably wouldn't make it 10 minutes in a different market.

The local media is embarrassing and yet people don't understand why Payton treats them like dirt every chance he gets, they deserve it

It didn't work out but I'm glad he stayed classy, that's a very decent thing to do Browner!

Surrounded by good players most of his career in the NFL. Take that away and things unravel swiftly. I thought this was a horrible signing from day one due to the uncommon number of penalties. Not acceptable. Why this staff could not see that face value is beyond me which is actually a greater concern than his ability. Our evaluation process has been broken for a while on defense. Give Brees an AVERAGE D and we will win an XL bag of games.
