respectfully disagree. the $8M is no different than the $10M sitting on the books for Robbie Anderson. the $5.2M could go to an important piece if you think Jackson is done after the injury. do i think they cut him, no, but i would. 

Respectfully, are you doing the math of your suggestion? That is negative 8 million dollars by this single transaction you are suggesting, and you still get the dead cap into next year as well... By cutting D-Jax... for no reason whatsover... you are accumilating 13 million dollars in dead cap over two years for 5.2million in 2023.... 

Do you see the discrepancy with that logic? There is no outcome of cutting D-Jax in 2023 that you are saving any money at all....

you are saving 5.2M this year towards the cap this year where you are currently $9M over

It makes no sense to do anything with Jackson this offseason. Next offseason it makes sense to cut him. 

And to the crowd that thinks we have a lot of money we don’t. Restructuring and all that fun stuff is how we keep getting into this mess. Now people want to spend cap space with have in the coming years? Lucky for that crowd I do fully expect them to blow through a lot of future cap space this offseason. 

Ideally they find their damn QB of the future this offseason. Limit the amount they dip into future cap space and go heavy in next offseason if we have our QB

You cut Shaq, Elflein and Damian Wilson and immediately save 21 million 

Then they’ll extend Burns and if they want they’ll lower that 16 million dollar cap hit this year. I’d prefer them to take the biggest hit possible on that deal now though. 

We are NOT winning the Super Bowl next year so let’s keep as much cap space open for 2024. Hopefully our new QB we draft this year along with Reich will be entering season 2 and that’s when you make your push

we have a ton of cap room. they can restructure both moore and moton to create a ton of space. also cut shaq, possibly donte jackson, eflein, and zane gonzalez. 

Probably won’t cut Dante. But he can restructure pretty easily. Moore and Moton are the same way. 
 

Shaq is almost a lock to get cut. So is Elflein and Zane. 
 

We should be somewhere between 40-50 million.

However, you have Bozeman with a market value of 14-17 million per year and Burns with a value of 18-20 million per year. Burns is going to count 16 this year I believe but none of it is guaranteed which makes him an ideal trade target.

agreed and you can probably add damien wilson to that as well. if bozeman is going to cost 15-17m per year, i move on.

I think he may actually settle for less. I think Burns is the one that will be difficult. We supposedly turned down 2 firsts for him. He is slated to make 16 million on 5th year option with a market value of 20 million. People think he’s going to do us a favor and takes less and more later. That’s not happening

Ahh, the cap.  Where we always say "We have no cap room!"  Or "The Saints have a billion in dead cap!"  

Then FA proceeds to happen per usual... 😃

Good times!

Its the same every year. We are in cap hell, the Saints are in cap hell and wont be able to sign anyone. Turns out to not be true once the season gets closer and then repeat the cycle next offseason.

Cutting Jackson would be boneheaded...You keep him one more year and you get 10million back in saving.. cut him this year you pay 12m and save 2m... there is no value in cutting Jackson. Trading? different story.

Plus if you cut Jackson then CB becomes a huge need. Remember the Tampa game?

    • I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever
    • Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies     
    • You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
