Re: Why did the Saints choose Andrus Peat over Larry Warford?
The contract isn't as "big" as it seems. It is really a prove it deal. Only $23M of it is fully guaranteed. The other $10M is conditionally guaranteed if he is still on the roster AFTER this coming season. They can cut bait after the 2020 season with minimal dead cap. If he has a strong season he'll be worth the extra guarantee and then can be cut at any point after with no guarantees. I think they feel chances of him suffering yet another break is minimal.
