Will be interested to see what traction Marcus gets in FA, however I'd welcome him back. With Rankins injury history, maybe he returns at a "bargain". At worst, he's solid depth.

As for Trey, I think he's gone. Tread carefully on players who over perform in a contract season but I hope he gets paid this off season … elsewhere.

They are all gone. All going to get offers way above the rice range the Saints looking at, especially with truing to get Winston tied down. Williams is the big miss

With Rankins injury history,

What about Mr. Clowney you wanted here so badly "for the playoffs" Tell us more about "Injury History"

[QUOTE=K Major;894545]Just imagine having Cam J, Davenport AND Clowney in rotation once the playoff starts. Monsters.

Reading this kind of animosity made me think I was on SR by mistake. We all have differences, we're human, and we won't agree on some subjects. That's fine but can we limit the finger pointing to a specific thread and not be thread jacking a thread? How about those Saints? :bng:

That’s how you rebuild when you’re in our financial situation.

I doubt that we get them. Godhell will find a way to pull a couple of draft picks. Three thirds and a first should make him sleep good at night.:rolleyes:

They were honoring his request to be able to choose the best situation fir himself. It’s probably one of the most respectable things the organization has done in a minute. Watt deserves to ring chase.

I didn’t say I wanted him. It’s just shocking. They could have worked out a trade to probably any team of Watt’s choice.

Watch he signs with Pittsburg so he can play with his 2 brothers.

So, are you saying he wears pewter next season on a vet minimum contract?

No worries brother. I think it’s a forgone conclusion that he’s going back home to the Packers.

I guess with his salary that was a logical move. He played a really important role though with all of Peat’s injuries. We may need to make an investment in the O-Line again highly in the draft.

Wow that’s a great start. Only like $60 million left to shed!

Re: 2021 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 
Whoever gave that contract to Peat head should be on the block. For all the great drafting the last few years some of the contracts given out have been laughable
Likely lose Williams this off season, cutting players and pushing back payments till next year lowering free cap space again to give out do many high priced deals to so few players.

You'll likely see them convert Jenkins salary this summer tying him down for another 2 years, same with Peat. 13 players with cap hits over 10ml. The roster is so top loaded

Having just finished the season on Madden with Winston as QB i can confirm that it will work very well over 5600 yards and 63 TDs

Mind you Michael Thomas caught 160 passes for well over 2000 yards and 31 TDs so im not sure id say it is that accurate

Urban Meyer coached Lattimore. If the Jaguars offered us pick #25 for Latt would you do it?

Sadly yes but it would sting as you'd need to go with a CB early. But if they think there is a legit franchise QB there in the early teens the two picks would probably get you one. But is anyone that good in that area.

I really wouldn't want to lose him but paying him without messing long term cap up would be difficult. Some big decisions needed.

It's honestly the reason why I suggested taking as many hits this year as needed to get the cap in order and not waste multiple years by pushing everything back


I've also said before I really think Gardner Minshew would be a legit option as QB especially if Winston is asking for anything over 10ml. He still has 2 years left on his rookie deal at under a million each year

If Minshew or Winston are the options it is time to be prepared for a return to the down decades. I'll project a 20-0 (17 games) season regardless, but just being realistic.

lee909 02-20-2021 08:17 PM

Re: 2021 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints
 
I don't think either are necessarily the long term answer for a championship, both seem more of a bridge option. Minshew did well with little help when he played, his INT are low. For me he offers value if you can get him for a 3rd, or some similar deal. But then the Jags might see him as the ideal back up.

The cap value is there and at them numbers it doesn't stop you drafting a replacement or getting a good FA in a year after. I mean you get him cheap for 2 years, option the tag in the third while you see if he steps up or gives you time to draft
