No I had not realized that. Glad we finally seem to be getting some relief.

And that is before any bonuses are converted, which happens every year, and before the next Brees extension/restructure. The Saints could easily be looking at around $50 million in free cap for 2017.

Brees cost $37 million vs the cap next year. He is not leaving.

After 3 years below .500, I'd take a #1 for SP in a heartbeat

Nope. You have that wrong. Brees' cap hit next year is only $19 million. His dead cap would be $39 million if cut today. BIG difference.

True, cut is $37, traded = $24 million.
Either way, not going to sacrifice $24m and not have a starting QB

I wonder what Trump would tweet about this? He could make the Saints great again.

Don't need to trade Payton, I would've said they need to to get rid of Loomis but it seems like he finally got a scouting team together to build a team. What need to be done is to find some coaches that can develop some of these young players,,,especially at lb and DL

Someone in management is listening to me, Bill Johnson and Joe Vitt is addidos,,,,finally,,,,,now go get a former linebacker to help develop Stephon Anthony
