sith13 1,746 Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 We don't need a star receiver. Hill is already that and Kelce is the best in the business. We simply need a 2nd tier guy if we are going for a FA or a decent rookie who can contribute in the short term. Unless there's a veteran WR we could bring in for a 5th or later I wouldn't consider any trades at this point. oldtimer and jetlord 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems from the FAs they kicked the tires on they want a bigger guy at #2. Makes sense. oldtimer and sith13 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would certainly give us more breathing space in the draft to find a left tackle in case there's a run early. There are guys who could be great there but need a little time to develop. Radunz and Spencer Brown come to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely, if we enter the draft with an immediate need at LT and OC we might end up using multiple picks for each position. There seems to be some nice talent at OT that won't be ready to start soon according to the "experts", would be nice to have the flexibility to go for the best option instead of the immediate guy.

Crypto is here to stay in the long run, and I bet the banks are trying to find a way in the whole thing as well. Lamardirts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamardirts 2,114 Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 It's not talked about enough but guys like Okung probably don't want a stopgap year. He just saw Trent Williams get a huge contract at 33 years old. Okung is looking for probably his last big payday so he's hoping for more years. Which normally would be fine. As a player of his level of talent is sufficient for us to make the SB but it is his injury history that makes this challenging. Obviously, there is pressure on him to sign too, but after missing out on Trent we look like the more desperate side. Get him in and lets draft a developmental LT in the first 2 rounds. I like the idea of drafting DE and then moving back up with our 2nd and 3rd and getting that LT in the 40's then grabbing David Moore for OC in the 4th.

This trade would need to be agreed on and go public and be processed after June 1 for MAX cap relief for the Saints. What I see is this for Thomas: Taking away the bonus's of course 2021: $1.190M 2022: $15.8M 2023: $16.450M 2024: $19.7M Now the only thing that I might be wrong about is that "Restructure Bonus" $4.9M. I think that counts as any other bonus(Signing Bonus does not carry over to a new team) BUT if I'm wrong and it does carry over to the new team than all those numbers go up by $4.9M a year. IF true....the one way to fix that is restructure and up his 2021 base salary from the $1.19M to what ever we have room for. Again it could easily be done IF NEEDED but who knows how large the cap jump will be with new tv deals making it not matter either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet he wants 2 or 3. Hopefully we could structure that with an out after the first or second yr. Lamardirts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still way too much for a 33 year old tackle who hasn't played 16 full games in years but not quite as bad as it first looked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
