Re: 2021 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints

In an earlier post I cited Lamar Miller as a potentially promising free agent pickup. My wish was granted! Hope it goes well!

Re: 2021 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints

Talk Tua could be traded if the Dolphins get Watson.

Depending on the package i think it makes plenty of sense.
He's got no protection and was rushed back. I think he'd shine under Payton and is still on a cheap rookie deal with a 5th year option. Got to think if Winston plays well he is going to be looking for 25-30ml a year with tbe average QB pay, Tua getting around a million a year next two years.

Not saying i dont like Winston but the coaches don't seem comfortable taking off the training wheels.

"Two receivers to the left, Garcon to the right. Manning in the shotgun, puts Collie in motion. Looks in his direction...it's picked off! It's picked off! It's Tracy Porter again! He's runnin' free! He's gonna go all the way!

Just looking at Sportsrac Market Value

And say Winston gets the higher end of that on the open market, the team will need to cut again to make space.

Do you re-sign Winston at 30ml and gut part of the roster to pay him. Or going by the market value trade for Tua and re-sign Armstead and Williams for around $35ml

Hopefully he can take 6-7 carries away from Kamara and give Kamara more opportunities to catch the ball. From what I hear Miller is an excellent pass catcher as well.

I'm hearing that Tua would most likely be part of the deal for Watson so he wouldn't be available to anyone else.

Now I’m hearing that Houston doesn’t want Tua so he may be part of a three way trade. Either way it looks like Tua would be gone right away.

Tua played above himself at 'Bama, and had a great supporting cast there; not surprised at his NFL performance at all...

How long did Brees have SP issued training wheels from whence he came, San Diego?

Methinks we'll have to be patient to see it unfold.
