Verners contract is 4 years, 26.5 mil

I really want to see Byrds though

[MadHatter]

I'm not sure what you're saying then. You're either saying that it was unwise for them to part with two easily replaceable players for an elite talent or you're trying to suggest that those moves gave them considerable cap space, which it did not.

I think they are worse off as a team by cutting Sproles and Thomas. Sproles was a huge part of that offense. He and graham were 80% of their offense.

And can be replaced with a late round or lower running back.

No way Sproles is easily replaceable.

A running back is always easily replaceable unless your scouting arm is completely devoid of any ability whatsoever.

[stirs]

They cut Lance Moore also didn't they?

Sproles is more to that team than just a RB. Teams have been trying to find the next Sproles for several seasons.

So us cutting an aging WR is dumb. But them cutting nearly 40% of their offense isn't.

You fail

Saints are giving former Bills S Jairus Byrd a six-year, $54 million contract, including $28 million guaranteed, per source.

 

after PT and Sproles are gone, the Saints will literally not have any space after this signing.

No, they haven't.

Sproles and graham were their offense.

I am not saying that Byrd was not a good signing...he is.

I am just saying that Sproles was a very important piece of their offense and will be missed more than you think. He was a matchup nightmare.

Sproles isn't just a running back.

I love how people always poo themselves in first day of free agency... The 2nd tier market is the best.  Good price for value.

[Ja Rhule]

Watch us sign Tillman, Nicks, Peppers and Oher.  All 4 past pro bowlers available at good discount.
