And the Saints were reluctant to re-sign Carr--but had few other options.  So they re-sign him, give him a back-loaded deal, he might have to have season-ending (2025) shoulder surgery, and there are literally free agents left who are affordable and better than Rattler.  In the weakest QB draft in a long while, they are nearly committed to drafting a QB the year before the QB Fairy delivers 10 or more QBs to the league, all of whom are better than $anders.  Sanders needs a year to sit and learn behind a veteran, but this will force him to play right away.  The Saints have needs on the OL, but Kellen Moore has mentioned offensive skill players.  On April 7, a Saints podcaster shared these 2 quotes from Moore, insisting that he revealed their draft plans.  To me, it sounds as if he wanted Warren before the Carr announcement:

This screams Warren.

The podcaster went on to say that they need a big bodied WR, mentioning McMillen.  Then he said, "The Saints are going to draft Warren, TMac, or Sanders."

You have to consider the fact that the coach is interested in calming players down before the draft.  The Saints just gave Juwan Johnson a 3-year, $30m deal.  He is trying to prepare Johnson for the Warren pick.  This tells me that they were possibly not targeting a QB in round 1---until Carr's announcement.

Just interesting stuff--nothing earth shattering here.  If their list was down to 3 players, Sanders just went to the top of it.

I really hope they draft Tmac

If they cut him now its 80 million in dead cap this season....... once they cut him next season its 60 million. Sure they can kick the can and re-up with him for 2026. They choose poorly, very. They could have cut him this year and SAVED 11 million, but nahhhhhh sign 88 year old cam Jordan and MLB davis. While using this carr saving to spend future money on kamara and young. It was time for the reset and pay up. Huge mistake even if Carr can play. 

They have a 100 million bill incoming no matter what, unless they what to pay it in 2027 by resigning 35 year old Carr, 37 year Cam Jordan, 35 year old Davis and others.

It's about time they finally had to pay that bill. It's been years of kicking the can.

There's kicking the can and then there's giving Derek Carr 100 million guaranteed.  Just stupid.

Nearly as dumb as giving a playoff choking 35 year old QB coming off a achilles injury 100 million in guaranteed. 

NFC south is ready to be taken....

IMO that only works if your team is winning or perennial play playoff contenders. They have been a 7 win team the last four years.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
