I'd rather keep Williams in the building that spending on any of the TE or WR
You can replace them in the draft easier than finding a Safety that can do what Marcus can.

If we can work a long term deal with Williams it can be structured in a way where the 2022 hit can be minimal and keep plenty of room for free agents such as a WR and/or TE.

Said this before, prior to reworking the Ramczyk and Thomas contracts, the Saints can regain $100M in cap space fully converting those contracts that can be reworked...

So, we can gain about ~$23M in cap space for this fiscal year; that said, I prefer the team start working the team's cap structure to minimize how much is rolled forward...

That way we're not in a situation where we're losing Trey Hendrickson or Vonn Bell; though Sean signed old, slow, coverage liability Malcolm Jenkins to replace Vonn Bell...

So we could easily have room for Marcus Williams and maybe another key acquisition like a WRz or a TE; and even those contracts could be structured team cap friendly...

Per Dr. James Andrews medical team, mid to late Sept … unless there are any set backs.

Same goes for Dallas WR & Free Agent Michael Gallup.

Yeah, heard the same. I just can't see us waiting until September to make a move on a free agent WR. At least not one that can be counted on as part of the foundation of the WR corps. Sure, a deal could be made contingent on a successful recovery, but that's taking a gamble on losing out on healthy options available as soon as March 16th, the beginning of the free agent cycle.
