I don’t understand how the Saints can afford to sign ANYBODY. Aren’t they still incredibly in the red?!

Lol probably not.

The way contracts work you can afford anyone it all depends on how willing you are to backload the contracts...

true. Taysom Hill just signed 4 years 140 mil which in reality is a 1 year 14 mil deal or something.

Well there goes another spot Teddy won’t get traded too, looking like we would have to cut him or keep him. Yikes off-season not looking to swell right now

He essentially got a few million dollar one season raise in exchange for extending his deal with completely voidable years and on the off chance that he wins the starting job and plays out of his mind he has them over the coals.

It was actually much more difficult during the last CBA because the cap didn't rollover.

Outside of 2 years or so have we EVER been a destination for top free agents? Charlotte is an awesome city but it doesn’t compare to a lot of these places.

Nope and from the looks of it, it’s never gonna be sad day indeed .

Interesting note...

 

Yeah Peterson is a team player but someone is going to pay him well to be a CB.
