But check out the cap hit if they make him a post June 1st cut

Saints HAVE few options now.  I hate the Saints.  Rattler?  Nope.

sorry Captain--did not see the links--just the thread title.  Wonder how this impacts the Panthers at #8?  I am guessing the Saints move up---Jags maybe?

I'm going to go out on a limb and say they run it with Rattler. They committed to Carr, so we know they were already willing to tank for Manning. Could they go up for Sanders, of course. I still think they ride it out this year bc they are trying to get out if contracts and dead cap.

Best thing we can hope for is the Saints move up and pick Sanders

Saw a crazy stat the other day, this is the longest in the offseason that every team has their original first round pick since the mid 90s.  Maybe the Saints will be the first to break it

here's an interesting scenario....Sanders falls to us and no one wants to trade with us except the Saints (they don't know no one else wants to move up).  Do we trade with a division rival?  The trade chart value is a late 4th to move up one with us....if they are desperate, they might offer a third, possibly a 2nd this year or next....do we do it?  Or do we decline and let them get him anyway with the next pick?

QB is a crap shoot....he's fallen some on a lot of boards, but he could be their long term starter

Right? From every angle it's a win.

Not sure if getting more and sending it elsewhere or watching the Saints take Sanders while having to eat Carr's dead money appeals to me more still. Either way win-win for the Panthers

Only thing I'd be worried about is if Walker is sitting there and we trade then they take Walker.  Losing Walker for a third would be hard to swallow, a 2nd i could maybe live with

Could be---I am going to say they trade with Cleveland and take Sanders.   This draft is shaping up to be a fun one.
