It is not that it is just logical when you look at the deal for both parties. Besides I would rather get stuck with Morstead for another year contract wise than paint myself into a corner and get stuck with Byrd for another year because I re did his deal. I would think the saints would want to keep all options team friendly when it comes to Byrd.

Re: Restructure for Byrd?

If healthy, he's better than anyone else on the Saints roster at the position or in the draft. I keep having hopes for Sunseri. But, he can't stay healthy either.

Byrd has been an absolute pathetic pickup
Not counting when he was injured

He is never anywhere near the ball
Doesn't coverge over the top on a deep play
When he actually gets in position and has a shot he misses
In the Colts game last year he was turned around 3 times for a score

The only time you see him is when someone is already tackled he runs up to touch them, trying to add to his stats?

Just pathetic

The colts game was Delvin Breaux not Byrd

Delvin Breaux flat out tripped on the first long TD
Got turned around and then tripped on the second TD

I am not talking about Breaux's two plays
I'm talking a single plasy where the receiver juked Byrd three times and scored

I dont know what games you were watching but Byrd was all around the ball when in the lineup. He actually produced well once he got healthy. Hes not worth the salary but he is one of our best defensive backs.

Re: Restructure for Byrd?

Byrd had 22 interceptions in his first 5 years. Funny how he comes to New Orleans and plays like ****, when in Buffalo he was a ball hawk. System? Maybe. Malcolm Jenkins might think so.

Bring him closer to the line and let him jump crossing routes

Playing centerfield is doing absolutely nothing!

He came here injured too. We'll see what happens to him this year.

Re: Restructure for Byrd?

Byrd will definitely restructure now, along with Drew of course.
