Saints put Kamara on the trading block?

This is the big thing.  It's not just Kamara, it's A LOT of key guys for them (and some not even mentioned above like Demario Davis IIRC). 

Not to mention, the Brees decision where even with retirement, he's leaving behind a ton of dead money. The Saints lived a few years longer due to a couple of amazing drafts.  Their window is this year because those drafts have now caught up to their cap. 

We have been predicting this disaster forever. COVID may finally kill the Saints cap wizardry.

The best part of drafting too well, you get a shot at trade capital when you can't find the money to sign everyone long term. If they handled it correctly, it shouldn't piss him off and they just might get a nice pick for him. If not we all get to laugh.

i mean the saints have traded away major offensive players before and not missed a beat. 

i can see a world they send kamara to like the bears, grab a pick, then bring in fournette for one year

everyone knows the saints are a crater after this season anyway

Yeah but that was when Drew Brees basically could carry that offense. Unless they have someone who could take Kamaras work load Brees would be screwed at this point in his career.

Or they could just sign a guy like Fournette.

Could, but they may not be the only suiters for Fournette.  Plus that staff may prefer a APY guy in Kamara like they had in CMC here.  Vs a pound the rock hammer who has been inconsistent.

I wonder if they would've signed that special teamer, emergency QB, and gimmick player to that big ass contract if they knew there was a possibility of the cap retracting in coming years?

Well we don't have their cap magic book to see the spells they have.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
