Makes to much sense not to happen but what do we know .........

If we get him, with already getting Kruger, I would feel like we patched the biggest holes on our team heading into the season. We would go from an average team to an above average team. Above average teams make the playoffs. This should be a no brainer for the front office. Brees should want this too.

We can go from Oline being a weakness to a strength with one signing.

Too good to be true.

Yeah Id love to have him as well but whats it gonna cost? And can we even afford his salary if we could trade for him...?

From what I read, Packer fan are either confused by this move for the following reasons.

1. There is no depth if they cut them
2. Packer are already 10 million under the cap
3. He has no dead money and it's not like the Packers need his cap saving

From what I gather... Fans believe it is...

1. They think the Packers predicting that his body is breaking down
2. Packers being cheap(No Surprise on that).

Brees would likely have to agree to a deal in order for us to pick up that cap hit. We'd also likely have to give up a pick. Probably somewhere around a 3rd. Anyone willing to give that up for him?

If he's good, healthy and we can get 3 or 4 more years out of him, I think it's a no brainer.

That's what I'm thinking. We had to extend Unger to get Kruger. Is there anyone else to extend or is Brees it?

 

[saintsfannca]

our financial position might dictate that we need to wait until he is cut.

we can't afford his cap hit this year via trade, unless he redoes his deal or somebody already on the team restructures.

but wow, between Kruger and Sitton, this could be a godsend for the upcoming season. We could very well look back on this week after we win the superbowl this year, and say this was the week that won it for us

Now, now, now, right now.
