Saints sign WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling

I haven't seen the contract specifics, but I'm assuming we are paying MVS the minimum, which is interesting given that he had a fully guaranteed minimum salary (+ small signing bonus) with the Bills.

The Bills will get some cap/cash relief from the signing, but MVS would be taking on injury risk without any additional compensation in 2024. I doubt he signed with us as a contender, he must see enough opportunity to get some decent film on tape to make the risk/reward worth it.

That's how I see it. The Saints have nobody proven at WR right now. MVS might get 10+ targets a game. He's 30 years old, this isn't just his last chance to earn any kind of "payday", it is likely his last chance to show he's even worth having on anyone's 53 for 2025.
