Randall Cobb and Mercedes Lewis.

Pretty good pair… in 2012.

Well they are the ones Aaron Rodgers made the Packers get.

He didn't make them get rid of Davante Adams, and he didn't make them pick Jordan Love instead of Tee Higgins.

I am starting to dislike Patrick Mahomes, but it might be more because of his wife and his idiot brother..............who is in the news once again, but not for just being the douchebag that he is this time.   He could be in big trouble, but he'll probably get out of it because his brother is a football star for the Chiefs.     One of the most dislikeable people in sports (and he's not even in sports, he's just around it).

Hey Patrick, you need to have a talk with your brother.  Tell him to go away.   Go sit in Aaron's little hobbit house for a few weeks and attempt to think.    I doubt he'd get any thinking done.   Doesn't seem to be his strong suit.

No, he was not renewed.    

[Motown Bombers]

He's no longer being paid by the Lions.

Poor Stafford. Part of another rebuild.

He’s still a Super Bowl winning QB.  I think he’s very happy with the trade.   

[Motown Bombers]

The purge continues.

For us that is probably the best scenario since NO doesnt have a 1st this year so it was unlikely they'd be able to trade up for a qb unlike say the Panthers.

Do the Saints just magically make up cap space? Do they have a Federal Reserve Bank that prints cap space? Fiat cap space? They were $17 million over the cap.

Methinks they will regret this move. I don't think Carr is a good quarterback. Never have.

[Motown Bombers]

I think Carr is a good QB. I think he's in the mold of Goff. I just don't think the Saints are a good fit. I think he would have fit better on the Panthers or Jets. The NFC South is terrible so the Saints may be favored to win the division now with Carr.

The Saints have seemingly been in "cap hell" since Obama's 1st term yet always seem to be able to keep whatever good player they want or sign FAs. Whoever their Cap guy is deserves a raise for always creating these ways to manipulate their space.

[MichiganCardinal]

I will admit that the first thing I hate about Carr is his face. Very punchable.

[Motown Bombers]

I wouldn't mind Winston as a backup since that suddenly became an important position this year.

I was looking at NO cap situation on Spotrac and they are currently at 284,000 against the cap next year. Michael Thomas has a 60M cap hit by himself.

[Motown Bombers]

I don't understand why the Saints don't just strip it down and rebuild it. They've been dig paddling on the fringes of playoff contention for a while now. They are kind of like the 90's Lions.

It's only $13 million this year

[Hongbit]

Tough call between Elon and Jerruh for genius of the day.

I think he's looking at next year. Thomas has a $59 million cap hit next year. This is his last year in New Orleans. It also sheds light on how the Saints manipulate the cap.
