Wtf on Reddick why add so many voidable years and make more dead cap. I thought this Suleman guy was suppose to be great. Damn we just hurting in so many ways

y'all really need to take a second and figure out how the salary cap works in the 2022 NFL and not base it on how your personal checkbook balancing worked in 1999.

It's my understanding the Saints got in pretty big financial trouble using this voidable years kick-the-can-down-the-road strategy.

Yeah, we got our money's worth. The cap hit is relatively slight at around 4 mil in 2022. The voidable years are just that if I'm looking at things correctly. I don't think it's going to hurt that much at all.

They've been doing this strategy for like 10 years and it still hasn't really bitten them (although that's largely because of having a HoF QB and coach combo along with an elite all time 2017 draft). This offseason seems like the time it's finally biting them but I'll believe it when I see it.

Their cap situation is probably one of the main reasons for this Sean Payton retirement rumor. They have to take some lean years and get back under the cap eventually. It made sense when they were trying to compete for a Super Bowl with Brees in the twilight of his career but the saints would probably be best served going into rebuild mode at this point.

You know what I zeroed in on? Making Darnold an 18.9 million dollar backup.

I'd said here that FA would be tough for us because guys are choosing. I don't trust another QB trade with this Fhule headed staff.

I just feel that Cam would be the only and probably most friendly FA QB for the Panthers. Nobody wants this team to win more than THAT guy. You'd never have to question his dedication AND guys look up to him.

Is he the best FA QB? No, but again he's the one who loves you and he looked damn good coming off his couch to truck DBs and LBs. That was beautiful and something I thought I'd never see again. The arm looked live although he wasn't always in sync with his receivers and he looks to be in better physical shape than when he first left.

Make things easy, not difficult. The smartest thing to do is to ask Cam to come back and start at a reasonable price with Sam backing him up(learning how to be a professional from QB1, sorry he needs that) and try like heck to draft Strong to learn and sit behind them both.

With Cam already knowing CMC(who is moving to the slot apparently), DJ, Robby. I think he's already got a head start on any other FA, plug and play basically. Cam told them he has standards, OK now they have a real NFL OC.

We've already told these dummies how to fix this team. It's as if they read this sht and do the exact opposite to their own doom and embarrassment and failure. Let's use psychology...

Don't fix the offensive line. Don't draft Strong and don't let him sit behind and eventually compete against Sam and Cam.

Sheesh

    • If I could pie more, I would. Fantastic 
    • Well bois, we gave the Devils their due! Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery... The jersey boys have been trying to jack our steeze for a few years now. They've followed our blueprints and studied our tape. Every offseason, they pounce on our sloppy seconds in a Newark minute. Quick with the puck, ferocious on the forecheck and stifling team defense. Down to the colors, this is this closest we'll come to having to play ourselves in Ole Stanley's Hockey Hoedown. As the postseason began, Rod stood flexing in the gym mirror and saw this guy staring back from the void... (Shutters) When beating us at our game didn't work, Timo and the Tri-State Trash tried to tango instead. Outside of a bitchass cheapshot on Freddie, that poo didn't work either. Their goon squad was getting wrecked by our bantam weights. As much as we all wanted to see Svechy or Staal Bunyan literally break someone in half after the Great Dane went down, they didnt need to. Our munchkins were monsters! Jarvis obliterating giants at the blue line, Logan laying the Stank on dudes twice his size and Blakers blasting Timo into next season. It was beautiful to see! (Side note: Does JBlo wear lead weights under his pads? 170lbs shouldn't be able to hit that hard!) We closed it out in 5, for the gentleman's sweep. Only team in the league to win a series in each of the past 7(?) seasons! And, this was supposed to be a rebuilding year... Onto the awards: Key To The Series : 6 for 19 - .316% IT FINALLY WORKED!!! MVP : 16/180 g/s - .911 save% - 2.53 gaa Seriously, without this dude, we would've won in 3! (Trust me bro) 3rd Star : 6/94 g/s - .936 save % - 1.59 gaa The Great Dane   2nd Star : 3 g - 5 a - +1 - 20:38 toi/g - 18 hits - 3 bs - 58.1% fo 3 PP goals and the 2OT series winning goal! WOOAAAHHH NELLY!!!!   And, your 1st Star of the series : 5 g - 1 a - +3 - 16:48 toi/g - 16 hits - 1 bs - 1 tk - 50% fo Zero, I repeat, zero penalty minutes for the series! MISSSTAAAHHH SVEEECHNIKOOOV!!!!!! Onto The Next: Now, we wait for the Habs to make it a nasty 7 game slog, while we recuperate. And, hopefully, get Nikishin, and some of the other black aces some real peactice time. We are gonna need those guys at some point. Because, if you think the Devils were dirty, hoooo boy, wait till you see what's next...
