I could see a 3 yr 18 mil a year for drew.Fairley, Morstead and Strief should be gone. MI is playing great but Alvin is a legit #1. I would keep both. KV would need to take no more than 4 mil for me to resign. Keep Ginn and let Snead walk.

Drew is not playing for less than 25mil/annum; now his hometown discount, concession may be a reduction in guaranteed years, but if he's playing at an elite level, you're paying for those performances...

Money will not be a top priority. I cant see it. He has more money than he could ever spend. This is where he breaks all the records and retires as a Saint. He wants to do what the best dream of, retire on top as a champion. He takes 25 a year he will retire broken because he would have no support.

There is no way in Hell that I let Morestead walk away and play for another team. If he is not the best punter in the league then he's damn close. I don't watch football anymore besides the Saints and their opponents but I do know that he is one of the best weapons that we have. Morestead is a stud and Loomis might have signed him to an expensive contract but he is worth every penny.

Then would you make this move?

Round 4/5 JK Scott, P, Alabama 6045 202 4.76 #15 Sr

Thomas Morstead
Potential Out: 2018, 6 yr, $19,014,097; $700,000 dead cap
2018 Cap $4,850,000
Savings $4.1 mil in 2018

Would you do it?

In a heart beat but not in rd 4/5. Maybe 6/7 or a ufa. Got to be one that can hold the fort for under 2 million.
