I am fairly certain we already knew the Saints were going to be all in on this. There is probably a reason that was released at the time it was though. Hard to say, very fluid situation.

Funny you didnt mention that yesterday when you were saying the Seahawks were serious contenders for him

Imagine Rhule trying to sell Pickett to Tepper if Watson goes to the Saints,  at least we'll get an actual rebuild. The one thing I'm thinking that would give pause is the Saints reassigned a former shitty HC, but kept the long term OC who we really don't know how much input he had under Payton. For Watson I'd think it's obvious Rhule sucks and the Saints are a gamble, but Tepper may offer him more long term control. 

Not a hard sell as Tepper is a Pittsburgh guy and Pickett is the hometown kid.  Actually, it wouldn't shock me if Tepper liked Pickett more than Rhule.

If the Saints truly are all in, does the price tag go up? If it's a bidding war, would we offer 3 1sts, 2 nds, and 3 key players? 

The situation is interesting with this, because the Texans stand to benefit from a bidding war, while it actually hurts Deshaun's future team.  I don't know that he benefits from waiving his clause for more than the team he wishes to play for (of those that have offered).

When I say "we" I mean the Carolina Panthers. I did not think New Orleans would be a serious contender yesterday, I thought there was no way with lack of resources and cap. That is obviously not the case.

      Micah officially requests a trade

      By TD alt · Posted

      You see, I just don't subscribe to a cookie cutter type of philosophy when it comes to trades or team building. Every situation is different. Many may disagree, but I think that FOs that can't draft impact-players beyond the first round aren't really viable.  Just for argument's sake, because we all know this hypothetical trade is as realistic as the moon being made of cheese, Micah is a young dawg really just beginning his prime and is arguably the most valuable pass rusher in the league. He could realistically play at a high level for at least the next five to seven years. Parsons' current trajectory is Canton. That being said, he's not some old merc that fits the mold of "one piece away," he's a core piece to any defense for the better part of the next 10 years. Pass rushers of his caliber and age don't generally become available, so, sure, he'd help an elite team, but he's also a fit for a younger team that's building. I know that you don't agree, but it's all good. I respect your rationale.

      Micah officially requests a trade

      By pantherclaw · Posted

      Here's my not important take on this subject.  Who wouldn't want a pass rusher of his consistency?  I would absolutely love to have him on this defense.   Would I give up Brown in a trade for him.  Nope, I would never do that.  Interior linemen are way to important to be settling for whatever you can get at the position.   Would I trade 2 firsts,  plus fork out a big contract for him?   Without knowing if Young is for sure going to be our long term, franchise guy,  there is no way I'd be okay with letting go 2 firsts. As for the contract that he'd demand, I just dont get caught up with NFL contracts.  They have been out of control for decades.  So I really dont get upset over big contracts. It's just a fact of life in the NFL.  You HAVE to pay for talent.
