With Drew close to getting his extension before the season starts and now Grayson release this could only means we have something big coming to the team via trade . Only wishful thinking.

I think it's smarter to try to keep his cap hit at $30m this year, sign Evans, and roll with it vs. make a trade that could cost draft picks + a chunk of cap.
That way we have so much freedom in the coming years with Brees number. I don't want to see us give him a low hit this year and push money to the backend.
This roster can compete now, the way it is.
Agreed. Pushing back money is what has gotten us into our current mess. Lets let things play out as they are currently. Besides, how much of an impact are you expecting from a player brought in 4 days before the regular season starts?
Keep your freedom, work a deal with Drew in the offseason, and go from there, any trade you make now will only stunt what you already have going.
Jahri was on the downside of his career the last time he was here, but that was because we were paying him 7mil per year. On a cheaper deal he is very serviceable.

Please stop it with your false/incomplete narrative. We've discussed this ad nausium in other threads. If you weigh Brees' $30 million cap hit vs our dead money, which is $32 million, you'll easily see that we can have Drew and STILL field a good team once we clear that dead money. That dead money isn't from pushing back contracts. It's from Browner, Galette, Lewis, and a couple other players that aren't on the team. Drew's money that was pushed back is factored into his $30 million cap hit.
