He wont sign a deal
They talk about a deal in principle ML: What are you looking for each year? MB: 14ml a year ML: We are thinking more in the 12ml range and on and on ML: Ok that sounds like something we can think about and we will get back to you in the coming days ML: Hey Bill,what do you want in trade for Butler BB: We want a 1 ML we are thinking And on ML: Ok thats a deal we can do BB: Malcolm we have a trade offer from the Saints,we cant execute a trade without you signing your tender Tender signed Deal done Butler turns up in Nola A few days later announced that the Saints and Butler have agreed a new long term agreement |

Re: Breaking: Malcolm Butler visiting Saints Thursday!
They can't NOT offer him. They can't negotiate if they don't offer, and the Patriots aren't going to just let him go for lesser picks when they can get the number 11. I mean, I hope I'm totally wrong, but I don't see the Patriots playing nice with us after that Cooks trade.

You seem to be assuming, though, that the Patriots would be willing to trade him without waiting for the Saints to make an offer. What makes you believe they will operate on our terms? |

Re: Breaking: Malcolm Butler visiting Saints Thursday!
So long as he signs nothing then no deal has been agreed(even if it has behind closed doors). Bring him in and send him back without a deal and see what they want in trade. Thats all im saying.
All teams talk to agents behind the scenes to talk outline of numbers The Pats may well take less as if they dont they have a p1ssed off player ad a player that is a FA next year and assuming they dont sign a same value player the max they get is a 2019 3rd round comp pick |

I don't want to even give up the #32 pick for him, personally, for the reasons I've stated. But I absolutely would not give up the #11. |

But if they think they HAVE to have Butler, I wouldn't want to give up more than a 2nd, either. I'm as certain as I can be that they would trade rape us again, though. |

Re: Breaking: Malcolm Butler visiting Saints Thursday!
He wasn't FORCED to fire anyone. Payton runs the show. Benson wouldn't order him to fire anyone. Loomis sure wouldn't. He fired them because they weren't doing their jobs adequately. It's as simple as that. Payton is FAR from stupid. He clearly knew changes were needed in those areas. Hell, the dimwits around here could see that, you know Payton had to have been able to see the same. We all know your bias against Payton. It borders on illogical hatred.
