You brought up a very valid point! I swear pick 9 would need to be off limits. I'd assume it would be a package of 2nds or future stuff. Regardless.... Im leary to hear the details of it. 

Saints have placed the baseline as a first plus additional picks, that's been known.

If Payton is offered the job, I will never watch another game, pay for anything Panthers logo'd, or even post here as long as Tepper is still owner. Everything Panthers related I own will be burned. The Green Bay Packers will become my team of record, but i don't know how closely I would follow them.

I will NEVER support a Sean Payton coached team, and any owner who hires him has permanently killed any desire to support their team. Even considering Payton would demonstrate a severe and unacceptable lack of moral judgement or outright indifference.

Anyone who stands for anything meaningful has their uncrossable line.

This is mine.

He’s a sleazy guy, but it’s not like we’re interviewing Rae Carruth.  There’s also a good chance we’d get our picks back plus some when he jumps to Dallas in a couple years.

His Head Coaching career was tied to a hall of fame QB that worries me. Bill B was carried by Brady

Yeah, sorry. I don't support football teams in any way shape or form that hire head coaches who previously ran bounty programs where they paid their players to hurt other teams players. Maybe you can look yourself in the mirror and be okay with that, but I can't.

It’s fair to wonder whether Payton and his agent, Don Yee, were trying to put pressure on Dean Spanos, if, in fact, the Chargers owner is considering dumping Staley. Payton, who’s also drawn interest from Houston, Arizona and Denver, will be looking to become one of the NFL’s highest-paid coaches with an average annual salary pushing $20 million. It doesn’t hurt to have Tepper, the NFL’s second-richest owner behind the Broncos’ new ownership group, involved if you’re chasing that kind of money.

From that same article...

If Tepper is ready to swing for the fences with Payton, a couple of other members of the search committee probably aren’t too excited about the prospects. Payton almost certainly would want personnel control, which would likely leave general manager Scott Fitterer and assistant GM Dan Morgan looking for work.

This idea gets worse every time we hear it.

Yeah not interested.  I was reading where we are able to get so many interviews because Fitt is considered easy to work with and well liked around the league.  Full control plus loss of picks for a HC that knows he can step away whenever he wants and have a nice salary as an analyst just sounds like a terrible move.

So Fitt is counterbalancing Tepper's "not easy to work for' reputation. Interesting.

Is the Tepper not easy to work with a real thing or something made up on these boards? It seems to me like he gives his football people plenty of room to work.

Why is Tepper so damned determined to make a deal with the Devil?

New Orleans will be a decade paying off the bokkor's curse that Payton left them holding.
