I like this option a lot. I wish Winston was still healthy. This would be perfect.

Not sure about that. When Winston had his dumb "Eat a W" tirade, Jackson was looking at him like he was a clown.

I think a lot of people were looking at him like he was crazy, but Jackson fits the role we’re trying to fill. A field stretching #2 option. That role would be maximized with Winston at the helm more so than any of the other QB’s. He has the best deep ball on the team by far.

We did more than most. Here's the list of all the trades down the stretch. Final week trades are extremely rare. Always have been. The logistics involved with the caps and such are very restrictive.

Found he gets muscled in one-on-ones a little too much for my liking for a WRx1; MT will physically, within the rules, separate from the defender...

While I'd like to have had Brandin Cooks, compared to other years, I really like what the Saints FO did in Free Agency and Trades this cycle - Currently a B+...

Not addressing the Guards (Ruiz and Peat) and not doing something to limit the damage Peat's contract is doing is an issue...

Like that they stood pat with Adebo and let some quality depth at CB fall to them, so that proved shrewed...

Also, things fell for them with Stills coming available to complement Harris at the WRz spot (as I admitted, wanted Brandin Cooks back); another stealth move...

Now, what could still hurt them was putting too much faith in Tre'Quan; also, maybe a little too much patience as Nick Vannett has been as unavailable as Tre'Quan...

Think they maybe should've brought in a proven blocking TE when they were available late in PreSeason, Week One...

But to be fair, let's remember this, Brandin Cooks was featured early and often when he first came aboard; Sean really liked showing off his new toy added to his offense...

Cooks was an absolute beast that was an everydown, home-run threat that just tore the tops off of defenses and made all but the elite defenses sleepless...

And as his contract year played out, while still consistently open, he was the third option on many play calls, thus limiting his stats in a contract year...

The 23yo understandably grew frustrated, especially when Sean wouldn't explain in one-on-ones talks, what was the reasoning for his shift...

If y'all's memory is accurate, fair, prior to that sh*t show contract year, Cooks had often been lauded as a positive force in the locker room, community, and on the field...

Anyways, before judging him, factor all that perspective into y'all calculus; you may still disagree, but it'd be fair to consider those factors...

Don't think he'll clear waivers.

The LV Raiders could pick him up since they've already released Ruggs.

Jackson won't be subject to waivers. He'll be a free agent when released.

You are correct. Thanks for the clarification. The keyword is "released" here. DJ can sign anywhere he chooses but does he want to play for NO with a backup QB?

I could see him staying closer to home, sign with the Raiders (Ruggs released) & catch passes from a gunslinger but what do I know.

Edit - NBC Sports use the language "released" but ESPN, NFL says "waived". If waived, he would have to clear waivers.

Which one is it?

All players, even veterans, are subject to the waiver process after the trade deadline has passed.

Waivers system needs revision. After a low-totem poll team gets awarded they should be moved to the back of the line with teams advancing up...

Even though I didn’t care for him in Seattle. Do y’all think they’ll give golden tate a tryout? I’m sure he can’t do any worse than what we got.

According to a report from NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport, the Detroit Lions are releasing tight end Darren Fells.
The 35-year-old tight end was in his first season back with the Lions. Fells, a California native, began his career with the Seattle Seahawks in 2013. The veteran tight end has since played for the Cardinals, Lions, Browns and Texans.

I won't pretend to know anything about cap numbers so perhaps getting this guy to New Orleans isn't possible but I'd like to see a big bodied, sure handed fella like this guy suit up for the Saints.

I knew he wouldn’t make it to us.

Quite a few teams are in need of a capable pass catcher.
