Saints have $1.298M million in cap space (updated)

[Captain Morgan]

not even enough to sign their draft picks.

 

 

Newly updated NFLPA records show the New Orleans Saints with only $2.57 million of space available under the salary cap.

The numbers appear to reflect all the Saints signings during the last week of free agency. It's not clear if the numbers include the restricted free agent tenders issued to tight end Josh Hill and guard Tim Lelito. Unofficial NOLA.com estimates showed the team with $4.06 million available (or $1.69 million when the tenders are included). The reason for the discrepancy was not clear.

Loomis is a cap genius, he can make Breesus a negative cap hit.

IF they were smart, they'd admit they're in/heading for the cellar, have no chance of winning the division, get rid of Brees, and immediately start to rebuild and hope the Panthers hit some bad luck.

 

Good thing for us, they're not smart.

Sounds like Border Line Salary Cap Hell. Someone tell Gettleman to change his phone number ASAP. The 'Aints know he got us out of it, they'll be a calling. LOL

a lot of debate on their boards on Brees contract (which is a huge cap hit) being extended to lessen the hit, but they are squirming because it hasn't happened yet.  Some think the Saints are going to let his current contract play out, and then start all over at QB in 2017.

Saints live payday loan to payday loan.

It sure is great to have a competent gm at the helm. The league MVP locked up for the prce of matty ices two year old deal. Did ya'll see what the Rams just paid Barron, its not Kuechly money but damn he got paid.

2.5 Mill is plenty to pay their draft picks... just pay them in Gum.

[jdpanther5]

Net draft pick cost for them is only $2,150,588; so they can afford that much. But...not much else.

I'm going to email the league and tell them the Saints are poking them in the chest with their salary cap
