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

Yeah and if we keep Carr just to win 7 or 8 games then you are out of the running for a top QB in the draft. Sticky situation to be in and I do not trust the front office to make the right decisions here. Especially with a first time head coach.

Are you saying that Rattler + limited cap flexibility for a year likely = tanking?
