  1. They have to clear a TON of cap. I think that N.O. roster is gonna look a lot different next season.
  2. I've said it several times. Please let this happen. Let the WFT get the full experience of what they've signed up for.
  3. Define "a lot". We ran more cover two in Ron's later years than his early years, but I don't recall many games at all where it was our primary defense.
  4. I think what you're missing is that two deep safeties absolutely does not automatically equal Tampa 2. We also played a lot of quarters coverage under Ron, particularly in obvious passing situations.
  5. Sorry man, you're just not right. Most of those times when we had safeties behind the CBs were were actually playing man. We usually went with a two look when we played man though we did do some man coverage with a single high safety. Usually when Luke was covering down the seam it was because he was playing man. We did run SOME Tampa 2 looks, but it was far from our norm.
  6. We'd probably have to cut him. He's a $20M cap hit if we release him (vs. $23M if he's on the roster), $15M if we designate him a post-June 1st cut.
  7. Yeah, I see no scenarios where we trade for Watson and retain #8. But yeah, if you land Watson and have #8 and a good option at LT or CB wasn't there then I'd consider Parsons if I couldn't trade down.
  8. Dude. Give it a rest or take it to the TB. We're not returning to the days of half the threads on this forum getting derailed by race baiting.
  9. LOL! No. Our CBs played very little underneath because we were primarily a cover 3 team.
  10. We ran some cover 2 looks. Every team does. But cover 2 was never our primary base scheme.
  11. We never ran a Tampa 2 under Rivera. Our defense was primarily built around cover 3 concepts.
  12. Like Aaron Curry was? That type of sure fire baller? Best overall player in the draft, right? Safest player in the draft, right? I mean, that's what everyone said leading up to the draft. People really need to get past this "sure thing" stuff. There are no sure things in the draft.
  13. Yeah, I wouldn't argue too hard against simply saying RBs as a whole should be on the "not in the top 10" list.
  14. Bingo. There's certain positions that should pretty much just be off the board in the top 10. Interior OL, in the box safeties, two down players (think RBs who aren't receiving threats or our run stopping DL), and yeah non-pass rushing LBs are there too. Sure, if you get a Luke caliber player the pick will prove worth it but you can't count on a guy being a GOAT level player.
  15. Yeah, you can say that about everything. That's the point. Nothing happens in a vacuum. Every choice you make requires sacrifice elsewhere.
  16. Literally everything else. That's what opportunity cost is.
  17. Why would any tram want Teddy and his salary? He's not a trade asset. We'd be lucky to get anything for him.
  18. I hate to tell you, but racism isn't exclusive to the Carolinas. And neither is unfair criticism of players regardless of race. Some people are stupid and stupid people are everywhere.
  19. We all have. But we have a dedicated place for this line of conversation and it's not here. Take it to the TB.
  20. Pretty much this. Avoiding getting traded to a Jets or Texans type of situation is what makes elite players push for no trade clauses.
