Saints now have less than $100M in total cap space to spend over the next 4 seasons. For context, the Falcons have around $600M, Panthers around $500M, and Bucs around $400M in the same timeframe. 

I feel like the NFL needs to put a limit on how many "void" years a contract can include. Jameis has 3 voided years on his relatively cheap contract!

We had 20 topics about this dude. Thank goodness this is the last time we discuss him.

 

I was getting drained hearing his name since the season ended.

Maybe we could start a "should we trade for Carr" thread?  😁

This all but guarantees we take a QB in the 1st round I think.  The question now is who will be our veteran bridge presence?  I'm in no way comfortable with the fleece day our trade partner is going to have.  We're going to give up way too much to get our QB.

I was happy take a chance to wait and draft Hooker late in the 2nd if we got Carr.

      The Bryce Trade is Finally Complete. Who Won the Trade? Panthers vs Bears

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      We won't know the answer to this for a long time. Reality is, Caleb has been the consensus #1 in that draft for years. Bryce was a similar situation, but mostly the same. He was not the clear and obvious #1 that Caleb was, but most teams had Bryce at QB1. The Panthers were always going to be terrible Bryce's rookie year.  I don't think DJ Moore's presence would have changed anything about that offense, as our guards, center, and left tackle were getting demolished on nearly every snap. It's clear Caleb's dad was trying to do everything possible to ensure Caleb didn't end up in Chicago with Eberflus. It's hard to imagine that he wouldn't have done the same, but probably more publicly with our situation, considering Carolina is an easier target for the media than Chicago. We can all speculate, but it's impossible to tell who is going to have the better career on May 16, 2025. If either QB doesn't pan out, we have an easy answer. If both flame out, the bears clearly won the trade, but it wouldn't have really mattered anyway. We all know how we win the trade. Candidly, even if one of the other picks we gave up ends up being a hall of fame player, we don't know if the panthers would have taken that player anyway. All you can do is make the best decision you can in the moment with the information you have. I really like Bryce Young, and I'm glad he's a Carolina Panther.  The only way to win in the modern NFL is to have an absolute dude at QB. I personally am happy that our franchise recognizes this, as I remember times when they did not.
