I just don't see the Saints trying to pull that off with Diggs. He's way too expensive.

SaintsfaninATLHell feel free to check my math and correct me on this one.

Is this my job now? I just look on Spotrac which has all current NFL contracts on it. I believe the Saints would be responsible for the base salary and not for the signing bonus, which would become dead money on the Vikings cap. So it's not as high as you have listed, but with base salaries above $10 million, it'll still be painful to try to carry Diggs.
