this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Chad Forbes @NFLDraftBites Give Sean Payton truth serum.... He’d roll with Baker Mayfield over Drew Brees. Sean’s been infatuated with Johnny Manziel since A&M Days. And his new QB crush is Baker Mayfield. It’s a joke amongst other coaches/ execs....

Re: Saints among teams planning private workout with Baker Mayfield
I just have a bad feeling about Drew. No way it should take this long. Monday he can start talks to other teams and Wednesday we get a 18 million capbhit reguardless.

Re: Saints among teams planning private workout with Baker Mayfield
I think Brees will be here still... But I’m getting very, very nervous that we’re going to trade up for Mayfield.

Re: Saints among teams planning private workout with Baker Mayfield
Drew is not taking a pay cut. Market value. We have to wait for some other deals to pan out to see his market value. Will someone offer more? Yes! Someone will offer more. Will we match it. Yes. To a point. If it exceeds that point then we are probably blowing the draft on a QB. Pretty much have to do it at that point.

Really expect him to sign with all the “ Saint for life” talk he’s done. |

Re: Saints among teams planning private workout with Baker Mayfield
I just don't see him making any deal without knowing market value. If he has us by the balls I don't see that changing. Love the guy but he should be paid what he is worth or more. Nothing less. I feel this way about all players. They should NEVER take a pay cut. He has earned whatever someone is willing to pay.

Re: Saints among teams planning private workout with Baker Mayfield
Again, he will play whatever market value dictates. If he signs before the hit we are getting screwed. If he signs after we are screwed. No win situation. I personally would let him go. Just prolonging something that is going to happen in 24 months regardless. It's time to move on. It will be painful but it's going to happen so get it over with.

That's why it is not going to happen. |
