Carr exploring options

[Ricky Spanish]

Bring him in to talk trade.

Hear me out:

• Get into a "Bidding war" to Drive up the asking price.
• Have the saints give up valuable draft assets for a QB over 30 with a 40 million cap hit while they're already 50 million in the red.
• Profit

Imagine trading for Carr and having to give him an extension on top of that.

 

Good thing the Saints are the only team stupid enough to trade for him. NFC South is ours next year. Never feared a Carr led team. Now he doesn't have the best WR to throw to anymore. This is great news for us. I thought the Saints would go all in on Lamar Jackson.

Clarification...

Biggest thing I get from that is that the story is of the Raiders not wanting some huge haul in return is probably true. Carr also has a no trade cause so he has to agree to any trade.

It's basically a lesser version of the whole Deshaun Watson thing.

How do they make that work cap wise?

Sounds like they'd need some restructures...

All of y’all are gonna be mad when we get outbid to move up in the draft and we are walking Darnold’s ass back out there or worse (Will Levis).

Loomis probably has 8-10 restructure agreements sitting on his desk to get signed.

I think people are underestimating him. Who are the top QB's in the league right now today?

Mahomes, Burrow, Allen, Jackson, Herbert, Rodgers. After that, maybe Prescott, Watson?, Stafford, Hurts? Then it gets muddy real fast. Can you put Wilson, Cousins, Murray over Carr? Idk. Carr is top 15 in the league, possibly top 10, top 12 depending on your feelings. He's certainly good enough to make a team a contender if the rest of the team is put together. Probably won't win a Super Bowl, but can turn the Saints into a 12 win team. To me Carr with the Saints is about equal to Cousins and the Vikings. Good enough to be a problem.

The rest of their team and coaching staff isn't though.

If this trade goes thru, the Saints probably become the division favorite.  Their defense is still very good, but the offense was anemic, and had a lot of interceptions given that they didn't throw it as much as most teams.  If Carr gets them to just an average passing attack, they become the division favorite.

At some point they are going to have to blow it all up.  Why not now?  I get there's a staff trying to keep their jobs, but as an organization--GM, owners, they have to realize this is unsustainable.  Restructures are fine if BOTH parties agree, but it's going to be tough to get that many players to take a pay cut or push their money out several years.  If they are committed to that staff, they say "look, we have to clear our books and it will be a tough couple of years, but we will stick by you as we get though this."
