Saints Cap Moves: Derek Carr restructured, Erik McCoy restructured; J. Williams released; cap space is at -$8,543,537

No, it’s not my opinion. It’s sophomore level math.

I never said this was about rebuilding, in fact I am saying exactly what you say Trip says, so I’m not sure what you’re saying there.
You’re saying it was their ONLY option, which sounds to me like you see it as achieving both goals - fielding a more competitive team this year and not doing a bunch of restructures of players they don’t value long term. Triplett apparently thinks this is only a win now decision, which you seem to disagree with.
