the charges were dismissed last month apparently so who knows

 

In a nutshell:

 

Was arrested on 1 misdemeanor battery charge, couldn't charge him with domestic violence cause no proof she lived there even tho she claimed to be a live-in sex slave for the past 2 years, battery charge dropped because it was possible her damaged ear and scratches came from the pit bull in the house

 

So yeah, no criminal charges against him anymore, but the woman is still suing him in civil court and the NFL is still investigating what happened so suspension is a real possibility.

 

And the Saints are trying to trade the headache away but with his big roster bonus due, no takers so far

Source: Saints clear $4.8M of cap space by converting Jairus Byrd's $6M roster bonus to signing bonus. His cap # drops from $10.3M to $5.5M.

This is awesome. You all should be celebrating every contract they restructure. Not only does their cap hit go up in future years, but it makes them much harder to cut as the dead money goes up significantly.

 

Now who'd of thought signing a S with foot problems to the biggest contract in FA would turn so bad so quickly.

they just signed junior galette to a $40 million contract and are allegedly trying to trade him now

It was reported that Sean Payton just wants to cut him outright.

I'd guess Mickey Lomis explained to him what that might do to their cap.

The numbers on OTC say cutting him adds $750k. Yes, that's not the direction it needs to go to give the Saints some cap relief, but it's not adding $16 million and burying them, either. Cutting Galette is still possible.

      Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
