What a huge fail if Tepper loses this to the Saints.  Not like he had a chance anyway but definitely will cement Rhule into failing too.   There will be pretty much zero excitement for the team heading into next season. 

At some point he has to realize what a poo show his franchise has become due to his own numerous blunders right? The one thing that really hits a narcissist is rejection. I’m thinking he isn’t gonna take this rejection well at all.

Seems rumors are he's going to New Orleans? What a turn. This is what Tepper deserves after forcing us to live with Rhule. Nobody thinks he's competent but Tepper.

I'm surprised NO has the assets for the trade but somehow they always make things work.

They’re $2m over the cap at the moment with a whooping $500k under the projected cap for next year. Let that sink in before we start declaring him in New Orleans lol

We've said before there's no way they afford to sign X player. This situation is more complex, but if any team can, it's them.

If they give up enough big contract players on deal it will offset.  Why the Texans would want those contracts and vets over our young players I have no idea

On Moving the Chains on SiriusXM yesterday, the hosts were saying that NO had no way to bring in DW because all their high price guys were already restructured and getting rid of them would simply accelerate their cap hit and make it worse. That it wasn’t possible. Who knows at this point…

This right here. I keep seeing that they are the front runners but as of right now the only meaningful contract they can do anything with is Bradley Roby which could save then $9m but that still doesn’t fix anything because they would have to clear out at a minimum $24m and I just don’t see them doing that. 
 

they would also need to clear out another $40m for next season and they only have between $100k and $500k available based on that.

I think the reason Sean Payton retired was because he knew the ship was about to sink and there was no saving it for 2 years. 2024 is when they’re cap issues will clear up.  Not today.

p.s. I’m split on Watson, I’m actually good either way we go. So I’m not someone just posting because I hope he lands here. I honestly just don’t see how New Orleans and Atlanta can pretend they can.

This is an all-time disaster if the Panthers get cucked by the Saints on this, who only got involved to make sure they didn’t have to play Watson 20 times over the next 10 years. 

It gets exponentially harder for New Orleans if this doesn’t go down by 4 PM today, so we’ll probably know for sure whether it’s them by then.

      MLB Devin Lloyd for WR Jalen Coker??

      By shaqattaq · Posted

      I'm not to sure it's a solid argument to try to estimate what he will do this season, BUT he's had a solid 3 years in the league. Here's his numbers compared to Jewell's for the same time period. I can see the logic of getting a starting MLB for a (at best) WR4. AT, XL and Tmac are certainly our top 3 guys IN 2025. Certainly worth pondering.

      Training camp just started and it's already starting... https://www.facebook.com/reel/24277303321904901/?mibextid=rS40aB7S9Ucbxw6v LOL No one believes you and you have fan pages sharing this with a "Play him or trade him" headline. Oh wee mayne. This is why no front offices wanted any part of this.

      Honestly, it only makes sense if you're trying to chase being the best bad team you can be this year. The number one question we need answered this season is whether or not Bryce is our long-term franchise QB. Trading away a second year WR who was second on the team in catch percentage, first in yards per target, and who clearly outplayed your 1st round pick for a likely one year rental fill in LB is exactly the type of short sighted desperation moves that has made us the worst franchise in the league under Tepper. We gotta stop making these types of moves and just focus on building a good organization and a good roster. Lloyd is a JAG LB another bad team and awful defense is wavering on and a couple of Panthers fans are salivating over him. Oof. We just need to be patient and wait. Definitely make some calls around the league to teams deep at LB and see if there's an opportunity to add one for a late round pick. Definitely shop the waiver wire hard. The reality is that LB is almost certainly going to be a weakness for us this year. We weren't fixing our entire roster in one off-season and we're not fixing an overall weak positional group in late July.  If you trade for Lloyd LB is still a weakness and you've given up a young promising WR who could potentially help you answer the question of whether or not Bryce is that guy. That's bad football business.
