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.

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.

    • I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
