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

So what exactly do you do? Restructure every single veteran to accommodate carrs departure this year? That’d be really “kicking the can”

Have barely any money for even draft picks?

None of you are putting up a compelling plan here. You’re just yelling and despairing over what you knew two weeks ago.

The keys is whether Jordan, Mathieu and Hill would take pay cuts (not restructures). After that, almost all of the remaining players needed to restructure likely play some role past next season, so there is value there. Carr is likely not part of the future. Would prefer taking the lumps now for the future, rather than continuing to spread those lumps.
