Underhill article: “Saints moves are telling us what they felt the real problem with the team was last season”

Why do you assume that guys over 26 can't live up to their cap number? 26 to 30 or so are usually the prime years for players.

I also don't understand how adding good players that will have every chance to live up to their cap number for the next 2 or 3 years is not building a team? What counts as building a team if that doesn't?
I don't assume players over 26 can't live up to their cap number.

What I am saying is that if are focusing mid and long term, we should concentrate on players around 26 years old.

I would not be signing or extending players that will not justify their salary by their play. We all love Cam and Taysom and Demario but their current salary reflect more what they have done than what they will do on the future.

I have different priorities than Loomis right now.

We may be close to win the division, but we are not even close to compete for a Super Bowl.

My main focus should be latter, and in order to do so, I would rejuvenate the team, thinking on having a players reaching their prime at the time we will be able to compete for a championship, and that won't happen in 2025 or 2026.
