Coaching interview updates

[bigdog10]

I don’t think the Saints have as much leverage as everyone thinks they do. Payton’s not gonna allow his future team to be gutted before he steps foot at the podium. He can just kick back and work Fox for another year until his contract is up and then the Saints get nothing for him. 
 

He’s going to get to pick where he goes and will have a say in that compensation. I actually believe him when he says he and loomis have discussed compensation. My guess is the team that gets him gives up a second this year and a future first (and that’s as steep as it gets). The value of those two together probably come pretty close to a pick in the 20’s in this years draft.

Didn't Cam have his highest completion % in 2018 after we fired Dorsey and got the Turners? We gotta stop re-hiring guys that we fired on these Carolina pro sports teams

I don't want Dorsey, but that has less to do with any work that either coach did with Cam and more to do with the scheme differences.  Shula ran a very archaic passing scheme.  Relied too much on vertical routes and we often didn't give Cam many options underneath.  On top of that, he didn't often have the guys who could consistently separate.  Led to a low CMP%.  Norv Turner wasn't great but his passing game was more modern and gave Newton more options to get the ball out fast.

It’s odd that all this info about Payton and Denver is coming out at 10pm Wednesday night when he interviewed Monday morning…

Payton interviewed with Broncos Tuesday morning in LA (i.e. afternoon East Coast time), not Monday morning

My mistake, still isn’t it odd it’s coming out now. I remember during the Watson stuff ppl were reporting meetings went well right after it.

Nope and I don’t know why Tepper is wasting his time.

I love the optimism, but may I ask why you think he will come here.

...without Brees he was not that great. 

Certainly a point worth taking into consideration.

There's been reports that Loomis now wants AT LEAST 2 1st rounders! I'm for hiring Payton but hell no to that asking price! 

Saints do have a lot to lose if they are asking too much, Payton would just sit out next season and then be free of his contract and NO wouldn't get any compensation.

And Carolina wanted two first rounders for McCaffrey. Just cause they want doesn't mean they will get it. Their options are Carolina and Denver right now, and Denver certainly doesn't have that to give.
