Saints Cap Moves: $27,092,090 cap space ….. 8 restructures, 3 extensions, 3 pay cut, 1 release [All current cap moves are in OP]
We are in a better place next year to eat $60 million in dead money than we are to eat $50 million in dead money this year (assuming Carr doesn't perform).
Everyone is gonna scream at Mickey, but there wasn't much of a choice here. This was the most realistic way to set up Carr's departure.
And even though it's not a popular position, Kellen Moore wanting a starting QB to work with is understandable.
