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

I keep seeing this over and over by many posters and I'm confused.

We cut Carr and still have to pay dead money after he's gone.
Meanwhile, Carr is the best QB on the roster. Pay money to the best QB you have on the roster not to be here.
Unless they plan on signing another veteran for yet even more money.
I don't see a veteran out there who's going to come cheap. More money problems ensue.

And I'm not even close to being a Carr fan.

Help me out here.

I don't see it, either. Some of these guys just don't like Carr and have made it personal. He is far and away the best QB on the team. Losing for the sake of a high draft pick or cap space is a loser mentality. Lots of teams have picked Qb's in the top 5 of the draft that didn't pan out.
