Tyler Lockett. IMO he would be an excellent compliment to MT.

Seattle seems to be in rebuild mode, especially after losing Russ Wilson.

He has a 31ml dead cap hit this year

I can honestly say other than Landry none of them are interesting. Maybe Beasley on a cheaper deal.

Julio, just didn't look healthy and will still think he is a 12ml plus WR

OBJ, won't see the field till at least Nov, won't be fit till the playoffs and hasn't looked like Odel since the first ACL tear in Cleveland which they have pretty much admitted the surgery wasn't a 100% success

TY Hilton/Will Fuller - Likely to pull a hamstring signing a contract, Vet minimum type deals

Emmanuel Sanders, the man is talking retirement and as soon as that starts its over. He is 35

The team needs to get younger
Get a TE and WR in the draft

WR1 Thomas
WR2
WR3 Calloway
WR4 Harty
WR5 Smith

TE1 Hill
TE2
TE3 Trautman

Add in a RB likely to see plenty of targets there is more than enough there if they get the drafting correct. No need to be overpaying veterans.

That 10ml would be better spent on McCoy and CGJ new deals

Re: 2021 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints

This is Trautman's third year - breakout season, so don't be surprised it all comes together...

He already has a contract & will only count against the salary cap for a team that trades for him. 10M or so.

The Saints essentially wouldn't have to do any restructure, extension, or give him a new deal.

All of this would make a lot of sense "IF" the Saints were interested.

Re: 2021 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints

Sammy Watkins to the Packers on a one-year 4M deal.

The likes of Humphries, Will Fuller etc could come on the cheap.

One cannot stress enough that we need another proven WR & TE added to the roster.

Re: 2021 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints

Idk. I still think Beasley would be a good addition for the right price.

Re: 2021 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints

Too bad the Saints aren't on the horn (trade talk) with Brandin Cooks agent.

You look at his stats over the last 8 seasons ... that is exactly what you look for in a WR. Top-level, consistent production.

90 receptions/1037 yards/6tds in 2021 were the stats for BC with David Mills as your QB :rolleyes:.
