So if we pretend we didn’t give back a third…it’s kind of like getting Tyreek Hill or Davante Adams but without the big contract…or the player.

Regardless, Sean Payton wasn't really an asset. You had his rights but he had already quit and had another job in media. It's a win considering the context.So if we pretend we didn’t give back a third…it’s kind of like getting Tyreek Hill or Davante Adams but without the big contract…or the player.
Yeah the more i think about it, it’s more along the lines of Arizona trading Arians to Bucs, Bruce quit but AZ still held his rights. In exchange they swapped 6th and 7th round picksRegardless, Sean Payton wasn't really an asset. You had his rights but he had already quit and had another job in media.

“Not caring about picks” is one of the things that has set us behind. Have to change that mindset in order to get where we need to beWe gave up a 3rd round compensatory pick to sign Andy Dalton to a 1 year $3 million dollar deal. Y'all cracking me up making a big deal of giving back a 3rd round pick. Saints don't care about that.
Assuming we won't be major players in the free agent market (perhaps outside of David Carr), and assuming further that a handful of our FA's (Davenport, Onyemata, Elliss, Roby, Landry) sign elsewhere.... there's a chance we might recover that 3rd round pick with a compensatory pick.It was a good trade not a great trade , saints giving up a 3rd round pick Baffles me and prevents
it from being a great trade
Good insight. Most Draft picks dont pan, thats why it baffles me people say trade Kamara, a sure thing for someone who can be everyone scapegoats Andrus peat, Davenport, Turner. With that said. To get a first for someone who is not having impact on your team at all is a good trade. People expectations were a Tad to highIt was a fair trade. I was hoping that the Saints could have done a tad better, but I am talking about a tad. The bottom line is that if Denver wanted Sean Payton, it had to give up draft picks. After quarterback, the single most important person in an NFL organization is head coach, and general manager is next.
Though I disagree with its opinions at least 50 percent of the time, I did look at the Walter Football website for its take on the Payton signing. It gave the Broncos a C, saying that Payton was the best coach on the market but then inexplicably why should a team give up any draft compensation for a head coach. But it then proceded to list the last 10 or so players drafted in the 29th spot in the draft, and the list is not very impressive.
1st this year, 29th pick, 2nd next year and we sending next year 3rdWhat did the Saints get
Yeah, and then the trade doesn't happen, which I guess is an acceptable outcome for some people. I'm happy the trade was made. Got a first and 2024 2nd for Payton and their 2024 3rd. All things considered, we're better off with that in the rear view mirror. I was just ready for that circus to be over.
