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

    • see we are just not going to agree - unless you change your mind lol. Mine isn’t changing without hard evidence that Morgan supported it like a puppy dog.  He was the assistant. If he disagreed and said so, and they didn’t listen, he has to pick his battles. If he continued to oppose he is looking for work. He knows this stuff. I think he knows Bryce is a super long shot just because he faced NFL QBs and probably would have salivated at the thought of Bryce on the other side in his playing days.  Anyway I am going to judge him on what he has done since he’s been the man with the title.  I also would bet a stack that there were conditions placed on him and on Canales re Bryce Young. Can’t prove it. I am not supporting the Brooks pick, and rationalizing the XL pick. And rationalizing the Brooks pick to an extent, on the (assumed by me) mandate that was a condition of the hiring. Which was ‘sell out’ to make Bryce work. This year. Now. (2024) That is what those top two picks were.  IMO. They failed, id judged today.  I think Morgan is doing a great job really, once he got his feet under him and was allowed to do his job.  Fixing this team while accommodating Tepper/Bryce, more than a two year fix.    Anyhow I have beer to drink will check back later. 
    • Dolphins pass rushers Bradley Chubb and Jaelan Phillips: The Dolphins have received trade interest for both players, but could have an easier time trading Matthew Judon due to his more affordable contract
    • Saints WRs Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed: While the Saints have maintained they don't want to trade their wide receivers, other teams are still monitoring their availability.
