Maybe in the NBA, but not in the NFL.

Thomas is a proven vet who in many rankings is considered top 3 at his position & you want to trade him for a 1st rd selection who hasn't shown you anything ?

Mike will get paid in New Orleans, and deserving of everything he's got coming to him.

I understand he is a top wideout. But what about when brees is gone? Will he still produce? Highly doubtful he will come close to the same numbers

21-22 million will be the new standard very, very soon.
We don't want to be the team that let a top-3 receiver go because of an extra 3 million a year

So you want our next QB to have no talent at WR to work with?

Not at 22 million. Id rather sign AK and some solid cheaper Wr. Again, I know he's a beast but we have been in cap hell recently and It's not going to get any better with signings like this.
