Saints Cut G Larry Warford

K Major · 05-08-2020, 05:42 PM

Saints couldn't even get a damn 7th for Warford?

7.7M in cap relief ? ... how about going after Everson Griffen perhaps? Saints need another pass rusher. A dawg.

I like that idea

Guy made the pro bowl and rated better than Peat by every site that maintains rating stats. Yet we pay Peat a boat load for being below average...

I don’t mind the Warford move, just don’t get the deal with peat.

Did we need this space to sign rookies? If not we may be going after someone

Easton is probably the winner in this transaction. Pretty likely he'll be the 6th man on the OLine and will come in the game on tackle eligible plays where Payton is in the mood to see someone get pancaked!

Warford graded out decent though. Definitely overrated, but consistent average. I think it was personal.

And maybe attitude.

3 years younger and can slide out to tackle in a emergency.

Peats get out is in 3 years. It's not as bad as people thinking imho. Overpaid. Probably but after 3 years it's a 9ml saving and 5ml Dead money hit if he doesn't step up.

Nope, Peat will be gone next year, especially if we find a good swing tackle (Peat's Plus value) among the new kids...

Turned up heavy last year didn't he. I think the opinion is he is on the slide and not as invested. The cap money was needed too.

Also the Brees fumble that lost the game was partly on him. Ramczyk gets beat but has nowhere to go with Warford being mauled backwards. Think that play was when it was decided. Think they just held on to make sure they got a player in the draft hence the bonus payment
