They need to draft a Brees replacement to stay competitive. If they can do that then this deal won’t be bad if you have a qb on a rookie contract. It’s still an insane amount of money for a wr. But if Brees’ contract is off the books (and the dead money) they should be able to resign most of their key players. It all hinges on the qb replacement. Brees is a FA in 2020 and I THINK his dead money is like 20 mill in 2020, 2021 combined but nothing after that.  

I really don’t know if they can resign Brees after this year (if he’s still playing at an elite level) and still pay their other young talents coming up. I doubt he takes a significant pay cut. This could actually be Brees’ last season with the saints.

And to be clear, the qb replacement isn’t some easy thing. They will struggle especially because they won’t be able to draft a qb high (I expect them to draft in the 20s next draft). It’s gonna be a tall order for them. Brees’ is one of the best to do it, you’ll see a major drop off with this team once brees is out of the building.

In what world is MT not in the same conversation as Julio, AB, and Hopkins?

he's not even top 5 lmao. take your homer glasses off. his system and playing with Brees inflates his stats.

 

he's not better than AB, Odell, Hopkins, Julio or Davante Adams. You can even argue Tyreek Hill or Evans are better too

    • I think that depends more on how high our pick is. If we have the 1st, 2nd or even 3rd pick i think we are drafting a QB rather than shopping FA market for a QB1. Curious if we’d be reluctant to start a rookie QB week 1 though. 
    • Hurney 2.0 and Fitts were so bad I don't know if it was intentional or they were that abysmally clueless. Fittershits panicked repeatedly being on the back end of positional runs while Hurney couldn't evaluate anyone outside of the 1st.  I can't figure out why Plummer still has a jersey. There's no reason. Dalton brings nothing to the table. If another QB gets cut that has given a glimmer of anything better than what we have, we should look, and that goes for every position.  I cant get over how much different this team could have been with a competent GM and having accepted the Rams offer for Burns. This franchise could have gone in a totally different direction. 
    • I thought tanking wasn't actually a thing and we were firmly against it though?
