Zach Strief’s raise: a message to NFL
Zach Strief’s raise: a message to NFL
They didn’t do it to make him happy — he’d perform happy or otherwise — but to send a message. This team treats their longtime players right. It’s a sign to agents and to prospective FA players. Come here, we’ll take care of you. https://whodatdish.com/2017/06/01/zach-strief-raise/ It is just this simple and the saints have a long history of doing this via contract or raises. |

Was talking with some friends over the extended weekend about how Ingram, AP would coexist... Also, if Ingram was paid too much, et cetera and the Strief raise came up in the discussion... Mentioned was the fact that when Reggie Bush took to Twitter and reacted as he had when Ingram was drafted ,... ...vs MI when his contract came up for extension, the Saints reward loyalty, positive leadership, and hard work... It's even why Galette got the raise he got for working to become an elite pass rusher (even if that's all he was)... And don't think guys that have looked at the Saints (Zeitler) don't second guess their agents about the right move... |
Re: Zach Strief’s raise: a message to NFL
Gallette had a break-out and was paid market rate.
I honestly can't recall another example of us doing this |
Re: Zach Strief’s raise: a message to NFL
Galette wasn't elite as a pass rusher. He was very good, at that one task, but not elite.
He was however elite at twitter posts. |

So our message is to run up the cap?

He was one of the top linemen in the league last year. He was the overall best linemen through most of it.
