Oh, and in addition to their FA losses, they (along with the Falcons) are replacing their DC.

The Falcons are also replaced their OC.

And the Bucs are replacing their entire coaching staff.

If Chud ends up staying, the most stability in the NFCS will be in Charlotte.

You guys are pathetic. Wishing that this Saints team gets taken apart because you can’t hang with them. How sad. What makes it worst is all but 2 of these guys are coming back and the two that aren’t probably won’t get asked to come back and will be replaced by someone better. It is has already been stated that Brees is going to sign a cap friendly contract that will allow Colston and Meachem to resign while Nicks get Franchised. Dunbar is going to sign because he is just a part time new comer that won’t get attention on the market. Shaun Rogers says he will take a discount to stay. Might lose Porter and Franklin but trust me those are not losses that will cause any Saints fan grief. When you add Spags and the new DC not only are the Saints going to be dominant next year but will have a chance to win the South for several years in a row.

Yeah, and didn't he move his wife and kids out of the Bayou reecently to Texas?

Hmmm, I bet Jerruh would love Breesus wearing the Lone Star on Sundays. I think Ol' Romo is 4 years into his current contract already............

Brees and family live in the Garden District near Tulane in New Orleans. Never moved to Texas so check your facts.

I love how you think Brees ISN'T a professional athlete and a star one at that. The guy isn't going to break the bank I don't think, but he WILL see to it that he gets paid like on of the top 3 at his position and he won't settle for less. Otherwise, there would already be a deal signed and done with months ago. Get your head out of the clouds.

We're sad for wanting one of our divisional opponents to flounder into nonexistence by losing a lot of players? What team isn't? Don't act like you wouldn't be ECSTATIC if Beason and Davis could never come back and Cam suffered a season ending injury in the preseason. This is sports. We're fans. We want NO, Atl, and TB to all fail, however that is. And we expect you guys to feel the same. I don't wish injury on Brees or anybody on your offense...your defense, well, I wouldn't WISH injury...but I wouldn't shed a single tear of remorse either.

The point is, you're a Saints fan on a Panthers board trolling and acting like your team did anything. Two years in a row, same outcome. First, Marshawn Lynch shredded your pathetic defense. Then, Vernon Davis shredded your pathetic defense.

Brees is going to want to be the highest paid QB in the league. Plain and simple. That is a vindication of his worth and the fact he has been playing at a high level for relatively cheaply compared to Brady and Manning. Professional athletes equate their value with what someone is willing to pay for them. A cap friendly contract will still cost 15-18 million minimum. As for Colston, expect him to want a big payday as well. Being a seventh rounder he got very little up to now and will expect to get paid as one of the top 5 WRs in the game. Something in the 7 million a year range. NIcks is going to want 10 million. Add it up, you just added 18 million to next years cap over this year's cap with 3 players. Anyone who think either one of them will give a big hometown discount have to be Saints fans. Everyone else knows this is a business and with the cap and salaries escalating in 2013-2014- few players want to be caught taking money now and having other guys not as good surpassing them in 2 years.

What may happen though is that guys will take a 1 or 2 year contract hoping to break the bank when the cap busts open as the new TV deal gets done.

Yea you saw both of those games because your pitiful excuse for a team was done playing. It would be disappointing if Beason and Davis don't come back because Davis probably runs about at 5.5 40 now and Beason was already losing a step when he got hurt. On top of that the Saints exposed Newton in their last game and proved how to shut him down. One last thing, until you guys when a Lombardi please don't attempt to act like you know anything about winning. You are all just wanna be's and don't know what it is like to pull for a true World Champion.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
