I checked. Teams are allow to converse with players that could go undrafted but can’t discuss financial terms. Let’s hope this isn’t another Tommy Stevens situation. Last year, Saints felt like Panthers had already agreed to terms with Stevens so instead they just drafted him. 

Im not trying to act like an ass here but you seem so negative with every single post. Whats up with that? Even your screen name is sort of on the negative side. What is troubling you? What makes you content or happy? I mean, there are a number of negative guys on this board and some are nothing more than smart mouthed neck bearded internet punks who are part time filmmakers and full time spoiled brats but you are not to that degree yet you are always so negative it seems. What is the deal?

The. Saints. Drafted. Tommy. Stevens. Last. Year. 

I.  Know.  You are still trying to make something out of nothing.  You can talk to players before you draft them. I dont know how else to break it down for you.

Isn’t there something restricting teams from talking to undrafed free agents before the draft is over? Isn’t that how we and the Saints got into that mess with Tommy Stevens last year? If so, I’m afraid this video is going to bite us in the ass. Appeared that Rhule had already been talking to Fletcher prior to selecting him. 

Fletcher had been talking to another team about signing as an UFA, not us. That’s why when we called, he thought we were about to start pitching him the idea of signing with us. So no, we aren’t getting in trouble.

I think they can talk to them.  But they cannot discuss any money.

I am wondering if this was a Sulemani cap move.  We have an aging LS in Jansen that makes over 1 mil.  A 6th round guy will make 610k.  So we save 2 mil over the term and while maintaining to production.  
 

Still would have wanted Trey Smith or Stone Forsythe.  But I do like the kid.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Nobody is giving up a 4th rounder for a backup QB And anyone who needs a starter badly enough to where Bryce would then be their starter, is such a bad team that they're not giving up a pick likely to be about pick 105ish overall, instead of just dealing with a bad QB situation for a season and then drafting one in a loaded QB draft next year. I'm looking through all the teams right now and can't think of a single one that would be willing to part with anything better than a 6th rounder. Barring injuries (and excluding the Panthers), there look to be 10 teams who don't know with 100% certainty who their starting QB will be in 2027... Dolphins, Jets, Browns, Steelers, Vikings, Colts, Saints, Falcons, Cardinals, and Rams. Of those 10...  The Rams know it will be Stafford or Simpson.  The Saints more than likely will be sticking with Shough unless he takes a huge step backwards.  So neither are giving up any draft picks for Bryce right now, just wouldn't make sense for either. Down to 8 Given their current QB situation of having multiple QBs they already need to evaluate between this year, the Browns (Shedeur/Watson), Vikings (Kyler/JJ), Colts (Jones/Richardson/Leonard), and Falcons (Penix/Tua), wouldn't be giving up a 4th (or maybe any pick) to bring in another QB to muddy the waters even more. Down to 4 Dolphins just signed Willis and wouldn't want to bring in another small Alabama QB who has struggled after just dumping Tua instead of just rolling with Ewers as the backup.   That then leaves the Steelers, Cardinals, and Jets left as it's clear none of them have any idea who their 2027 could be as of right now.  But the Steelers would for sure rather just see what one of the 2 QB's they drafted in the last 2 drafts could become than give up a mid round pick for Bryce.  Same goes for the Cardinals in taking Beck this past weekend. The Jets would be the most likely team to even consider taking him on, but I think it seems very apparent right now given them rolling with Geno and now talk of bringing in Wilson to be his backup, they're punting on QB this year to draft someone next year, so why give up even a mid round pick for Bryce?

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      Honestly I am not sure Pickett couldn’t step in for him. But I don’t see a clear easy upgrade and we are not KC with Alex Smith we are a team that hadn’t done poo for almost ten years and just made the playoffs. And looked good in the game. That stadium atmosphere on that day…. you know Tepper ate that poo up. Not one drink has been thrown in a while.  You had better make sure if you replaced him after that that you had a sure fire upgrade.

      Makes sense. If Bryce is ass this year, we are probably drafting our new QB next draft and sitting him behind Bryce for a year
