Underhill thinks Carr will be Saints starter [mod edit: Moore-Carr meeting went well; Saints plan is to keep Carr in 2025 & figure out contract]

I think they are going void restructure $25-$27 million into the void years in 2027 and 2028 while dodging 2026 altogether.


We are essentially paying a player for cap space that won't be here. It's such a wild tactic to process. Just seems better off to pay him off to bring base salary to vet minimum and cut him. Why pay someone $30 million to not be here in 2026?

i don't understand the cap implications, so I rely on the fellas on SR.com to break it down, and I follow the arguments like a tennis match. Not sure how realistic it may be, but if Carr is on the team in 2025, I'd like to see DC4 renegotiate his salary (pay cut) in an amount that offsets the signing of 2 new quality HOSS guards to park on each side of McCoy, for his own protection.
