Holy fug. I mean, he's good but not elite. Jeebus.

Disagree, dude was one of the best Tackles in the league last year. He deserves the contract. 

Also more money tied up in future contracts that possibly hurts the saints down the road. I'm alright with it.

Seems like we've been talking about the taints falling of a massive salary cap cliff for a few years, meanwhile they keep signing players and extensions? I'm no cap expert but I would really like to see this crash and burn finally take place. The anticipation is killing me.

Remember how many years we got away with it. It really takes a while to really fug your self.

This is what I am most anticipating. Have they even attempted to field his replacement? I have to admit, with the way they have been free falling I mostly quit paying attention to them and their team building (or lack of team building)

Good point. I guess I just want the instant gratification of watching them finally not be named the NFCS Super Bowl winners of March, and listed as the bottom dwellers of the division. It does seem like the saint's nut hugging is laying off a bit, but I also avoid major sports media outlets unless someone links an article from here.

Like I said, the anticipation is killing me lol.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
