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.

I think Denver recouped a late first round pick after trading Bradley Chubb to Miami, so they have that at least. Denver's job seems to be more attractive compared to Carolina if I was a head coach, unless you just hate Russell Wilson.

This is my question too--Denver is not in the position to give up two #1s on top of what is still owed to Seattle.

Unless Loomis is agreeing to less for Denver, why would Payton go there with fewer picks, a worse cast, and a tougher division and conference than Carolina? Ok, he'd have Russ but that may just be a halo effect. He'd pick his QBs in Carolina and take a team that Wilks had go 6-6 (could have been 8-4) in a putrid--I repeat--putrid division. He'd have to be high or highly unfortunate to not be in the playoffs every year here.

If I was Payton I would play Tepper and then sign in Denver. I don’t think Denver’s new owner will be as meddlesome as Tepper. 

He'd get a way longer in Carolina than Denver, where the fan base expects Lombardis. Longer time to get paid in Charlotte than in Denver.

Our very on Verge has "sources". But it's not like she has the phone number of somebody working for the NFL who is giving her, and her alone, inside info. Twitter is an abomination ... but we like it because it's 24/7.

Technically we use facebook messenger

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. 

 

What I haven't seen anyone talking about is another option. Payton goes back to New Orleans and says he's ready to resume his contractual duties as head football coach. I don't think Loomis wants that.

I'm guessing he can't do that, he didn't take a leave, he retired, it's not like they have to keep paying his contract.

They just retain his coaching rights until the contract would have been over, if not, coaches could "retire" any time they wanted just to switch teams, it would be wild.

Also pretty sure they have his rights through the 2024 season, so they do have a lot of power in this as they could force him to sit out 2 more years if they wanted, think that eliminates a lot of leverage Payton could have in it all because at his age, 2 years might be around 20% of the rest of his career.

Knowing how Tepper is, I see either the deal with Payton getting done Friday; or a deal with Dorsey getting done Saturday.

Tepper doesn't strike me as someone who wants a long coaching search, so if he can't get Payton to agree to a deal Friday, I could easily see him being enamored with Dorsey and hiring him on the spot.

Deal with Payton can’t be done Friday. They have to talk to the saints first.

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      By TD alt · Posted

      Two things: 1. Dr. Eric Eager is central to the draft process 2. I know that it was edited, but we didn't hear "Thieneman" one time, not even before the Vikings pick.

      Why would he sign here as a guard when surely someone would sign him as a tackle?  Assuming he is healthy

      Went back to watching the highlights. With a sober mind haha. Here is what I saw.    freddie needs to make 1 of those but the rest aren’t on him.    Slavin was BBBBAAAD again last night. Not sure what is going on with these game one Slavin gafs.    miller was ok but had his worst game in the playoffs so far.    nikishin was no good. His his awful turnover led to the first goal at the end of the first period that just can’t happen. ghost was beat like a drum multiple times last night, including the go-ahead goal at the end jarivs wont shoot. He is either hurt or he is struggling mentally and I think it could be a combination of both. He passed up a wide open net on the power-play only to pass it to no one and cleared it himself.     Svech played well. He is getting zero help on that line.    aho. Worst game as a pro. I mean that. He won’t shoot it, passes go to no one and turns it over repeatedly.  He did exactly what they did against Montreal game one when Miller had a turnover. Aho left his man to go help and left the golden Knight player wide open in front of Freddie.  If I was Rod, you Tell Aho when that thing hits your stick you fire it  someone needs to sit him down just him in a room and ask what’s going on. He seems soft, timid and has zero fire.   canes could have won that game   There isn’t a gap between these two teams  they are dead even   Carter Hart’s gonna get lit up in this series. We can beat that guy. the consensus last night was our defense played horrible and our stars won’t score.  clean the defense up. Tell the top line to shoot it everything and we’ll win tomorrow night.   Possibly convincingly.
