A contract would mean we give up #11. An agreement to sign a contract after signing the tender with the Pats and being traded wouldn't. We DIDN'T want a contract signed when he left. That would have been a bad thing.

Re: Malcolm Butler’s visit with Saints reportedly ends with no deal
I think we still have a strong chance of signing Butler. Once we reach an agreement, the Pats have a chance to match it. If they decide to let him come to N.O. Then we would discuss compensation. I would rather swap back our 3rd and 4th round pics from the Cooks trade, but I wouldn't be mad if they decided to give up the 32nd pic either, that means we basically traded Cooks for Butler. Cooks is too emotional and selfish, Wanna be the man over a good team player. We will get Butler for a deal similar to the one the Pats gave Gilmore, then we just hafta cross our fingers and hope he fits our system and don't go Browner on us . . .

Re: Malcolm Butler’s visit with Saints reportedly ends with no deal
**** that. If I'm trading my first pick it's going to be for a young All Pro player. A player that immediately makes us much better. A game changer
. I really can't think of anyone on the market worth that |

Dude, are you paying attention at all? The Saints first pick isn't in play at all. Get with the game.

It's doubtful IMO, but I don't bet on anything when it comes to the Saints and draft picks. |

Re: Malcolm Butler’s visit with Saints reportedly ends with no deal
Another issue with Butler will be his salary cap number which will be between 11 and 13 mil per annum if he gets Top 10 CB money that he said he wants.
Do we want to commit that kind of money to a CB that is only listed at 5' 10" and doesn't cover the taller No. 1 receivers, only exception was Antonio Brown, and still have Del Breaux to extend in a couple of seasons? Del Breaux is 6' 1" and will still be out No. 1 CB even with Malcolm Butler. Spend that 32nd pick or more that one pick to get your No. 2 if you don't think PJ can come back healthy... Hopefully someone in the Saints Front Office will talk Payton out of this madness... |
It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...
