Zack Baun: Top Graded LB / DPOY cand. [Why Isn’t Baun Still a Saint Thread] ………. [Eagles re-sign Baun to 3-year, $51 million contract on March 5]

Baun is drafted by your team. Dude is in your facility every day, but primarily plays special teams. Can not crack the starting lineup. Contract is due, you try to resign him, but he wants more playing time. Ends up with another team and is lighting the league on fire.......in consideration for DPOY.

Huh? Happens all the time, right?

Even when the scouts hit, the Saints miss. Who Dat!!!
Ted Hedrickson DE
Elliss, Kaden LB
C.J. Gardner-Johnson, S
Marcus Williams, S
Alex Anzalone, LB
Onyemata, David DT

This is the reason our D fell apart this year!
It is happening all to often lately!

Hopefully because of the year Baun & Hedrickson have had in 2024, our FO will look at themselves & do a better job of evaluating the HC's decision when it comes to signing older players to max contracts at the expense of keeping younger players...
