Don't see any fire sale happening.

Don't surprised if this is the only trade we end up making

He is a gm cuck that agreed to a job with no power.   That’s best case scenario.    We need clean house.    There are a ton of poo moves he has made since he got hired.  If this was supposedly rhule then his ass better show tepper receipts that he was against it.  I mean trading for darnold and baker should be firing offenses on general principle.    And there are a ton more of bad moves

“GM Cuck” 

that’s a new one

@Toomers theres the numbers, in this thread there are others. I dont know what you need. 

That’s the total with 38 players. Not 53. So add about 15M for 15 players and you get the real total.

No the cap is a myth, remember?  That's why Sean Payton left the team and it says 54 million in red there.

In reality, it really is… until there are penalties for continuing to push money down the road teams will continue doing it.

That’s one reason that I don’t worry about the cap anymore. It’s all bullshit…

Yeah well I don't give a flying fug about what anyone says about the future until it becomes the past. 

IDC who the fuging coach is now. We all know he has next to no ability to force any personnel move without Fitterer signing off on it. He isn't subordinate to anyone.

Pretty sure Fitterer and Wilks are gonna be collaborative...basically like a normal head coach-GM works rather than the Rhule "full power" bullsh-t.

Am I reading the Saints cap correctly??!

bro they were like 90 million in the red during coofus 2020. Mickey is a cap wizard and smarter than anyone when it comes to it *but you have to pay up at some point...... Mick always bet on the cap increase and spending 20 million in the future than the now. If the cap gos up 5-9% each year its wiser to spend the future money cause its less % of the whole cap four years form now.

Lol, yes you are.  Remember how people keep saying the cap is a myth? Eh, it can be fudged, but at some point you have to pay the piper.  That's the reason I'm not a fan of contracts with voidable years tacked on to the end just to make the money work out in the present time.  The Saints mastered the technique to keep their Super Bowl window open and now they suck and their cap is a dumpster fire..  People say Sean Peyton left just because of Drew Brees retiring.  That's not the ONLY reason and now you see why.

Exactly. So Fitterer takes the bulk of this blame....like most GM's do. 

I give him a pass on every move prior to Rhule getting canned.

There was an article a while back about how the "kick the can" approach was becoming a more prominent thing.

Basically, people saw the Saints getting away with it and said "hey, we can do that too".

Agreed. From here on out, it's his (and Morgan's) show.

They spent it because they had to save face. Tepper made a mess and it had to get cleaned up. They had to look like they were at least doing something to get better, because restructuring all those deals made things a lot worse. The RA deal was crap. We all know it. But mortgaging your teams financial future to go after a guy who never had any interest in playing for this team unless there was no other option was stupid. Darnold is gone after this year so the 19m on this years disappears too. 

Agreed. Except throwing away 19M on a backup is the reason they had to restructure any of them this year.

Thats true and all, but they were 10ish in the red before and now they are not. Hence below the cap. They were planning on cutting anderson, got a buyer and same affect. Yes draft class and need more players, but now they dont have anderson to worry with. top 51 count, Im sure you know that as well.

Right… and it’s ridiculous… like is Gayle going to have her team continue to kick the can until she passes and let the new owner deal with it…
