When does Colston get his deal?
if the saints are smart they would do it next year, of franchise him next year... and work on the deal...cause it's gunna be LARGE!!
I think we willl do it this summer.
We need to know who else we sign in free agency. We need to know about Deuces' status on a restructure. We need to know who we take in the draft, that changes if we move.
But Colston is a 7th round pick (pay is not that great for 7th rounders), and he and his agent both know if he performs again, the moon will be the target.
But, what if we offer a young man the big bucks a year early? What if he likes playing for us and wants to stay? What if he doesn't want to risk the posibility (knock on wood!) of a bad injury next year?
And if he's not happy about someone elses pay, it would be his chance to be the highest paid receiver on the team, an ego thing.
Straighten out the rest we're gonna do before summer. Then move on him, Smith, and Evans.
