Cam Jordan was on Good Morning Football. A player like Cam (lifelong Saint and a great ambassador for any team--I like him a lot) could be used by the Saints to create a smokescreen. He denied that the Saints would take a QB in the first round, claiming that it has not been done since Manning in 1971 (paraphrasing)... It seems to me, (conspiracy theory forthcoming) that bit of information would have to have been researched/premeditated/planned. Was he attempting to scoff at the concept that the Saints would draft a QB at #10? Remember, Carr missed 7 games last year and had a 63.something QB rating. He was not believed to be returning in 2025. When the Saints thought that one of the top 2 Qbs were not going to be there at #10, they did not take advantage of the void clause in his contract, the way I understand it. That means they continued to kick the Carr contract down the road. In 2026, Carr's cap number is $69m--nearly a quarter of the cap for a 35-year old QB they do not want. He is to be paid a $40m salary with a $10m roster bonus. While I am not a capologist, it is interesting if they really like Shedeur. All that matters is the perception that the Saints will take him at 10. If the Giants pass on him, and I think they likely will, Sanders could draw interest from the Raiders (I do not see it) at 6 or the Jets at 7 (more likely, but still unlikely). The Panthers are the most likely trade partner--unless the Jets want to move back. So who may realistically trade up for a qb? The Colts (14), but there is no noise about them taking a QB and I do not think they have shown interest--instead, a competition between Richardson and Jones is the plan. The Steelers (21) are in play, and the Rams are in play. There is, however, another option for Carolina as a trade partner--The Saints. A draft day switch for a third rounder might keep the Panthers targeting their player at 8 and add a pick in the process, suggesting they do not want to move back--but I get the impression that the Panthers are looking to move back. -
I said this a week ago and someone said it's idiotic basically bc they want Rodgers. Newsflash, Rodgers is a 1 year bandaid at most and if he gets hurt, Pittsburgh has nothing else but just traded for Metcalf. I still think Shedaur may go to the Giants tho. Feels its a battle in the front office on him. We will see but I'd gladly take that trade package lol -
