Saints could get to $14.61 million under the cap without restructuring Derek Carr, after Saints salary cap potentially increases by $5M

Unfortunately for us, Carr isn't Brady and our vets are declining in production. The ideal solution is to take the two year approach to getting rid of both.

Indeed. Carr needs to go now.

My point about the Patriots was that they moved great productive vets like Lawyer Milloy and Richard Seymour early to protect their cap and HoF QB. I know the comparisons are not clean, but when you look at the vets they moved on from, and the free agents they brought in that were huge in their winning Super Bowls, it's easy to see why they won alot of rings with Brady, when we were always a player or two short or screwed trying to win a 2nd Super Bowl.
