WR Cedrick Wilson Jr. signs with the Saints to a 2-year/5.75M deal (2.85M guaranteed)

Wow, what a bargain.

We are really getting a lot of bang for our buck here potentially. Outstanding find by the brain trust on Airline Dr.

Very interesting that we pushed the additional money into the future with a void year on such a cheap deal.

I think the 500K void year was added so that Wilson could have a lower cap hit in year 1 at 1.85M. Without it, 2024 cap hit would probably be around 2.85M. Pushing the 1M gives the team more cap flexibility this year.

His guarantees looks like he’s entrenched on the WR depth chart as of now. Olave/Shaheed/Perry/Wilson looks to be the WR roster locks. Next significant WR addition will probably be a draft pick or another cheaper FA vet like Renfrow.
