Saints at the top of Davante Adams’ wish list [Raiders trade Adams to Jets for conditional 3rd ; Jets paying Adams’ entire remaining salary] (3 Viewers)

[SoggyBottomBoy]

Still a fence-rider on this, but if we can get him with a restructured contract, I'm leaning toward getting him. I don't see any team signing him without an agreement on a restructured contract.

Behind Olave and Shaheed we have a lot of hopefuls, but it will take some serious KK magic to keep us in contention. Possible, but not very promising at all.

And if it means we settle on an extension for Kamara, that is worth any salary cap angst. That's a two-for-one benefit. Yeah, I know they're both on the backsides of their careers, but I feel they both have 2-3 good seasons left.

If someone offers something ridiculous or would stretch us too thin to pull it off, walk away from the table.

And the Raiders are trying to play hardball while paying this guy $1M+ per game as long as they keep him.

If we have been the most aggressive I feel like that means we will win.

Tonight beat KC
Tomorrow Trade for Te' (as Carr calls him)
February Win Super Bowl

Like = WHO DAT!

I wonder if this is the Jets getting ahead of the “We failed at getting Adams” story by making it appear like it was their choice…

Too much gets made of looking at the cap status of a singular year. What’s our cap status look like for the next five years? That’s the money we are working with.

We can clear that $88 million next year with like 7 moves.

Unless football ends after 2025, or we have another pandemic that makes the cap suddenly unexpectedly go way down, next year’s dollars as a singular year figure matters little.

A 2nd round pick and all the money from his contract is ludicrous

Jets need to start prepping to find their next QB.

From the article above…

They can always make themselves feel better by thinking about how much their division rival is paying Russell Wilson this year.

 

[BreesusSaves]

- Adams becomes $968k cheaper per game that passes. There are still 13 games left on everyone's schedule. The Saints and Jets each have 5 games to play before the trade deadline. Both teams are riding that line of "are we really contenders this year?" They may want to play a couple more games to get a better idea of which side of the line they are on before moving capital they may want for the draft and free agency.

In before I could chime in with all they have to do is compare it to the Wilson deal. It'll seem like a bargain.

carr, d Davis, chase young, Winston... we've signed dozens. Spiller... Sproles,

He said BIG name. Like haz tacoe bell commercials and stuff.

Seriously though, he’s a bonafide star WR and they don’t often pop up saying they want to come to NO. He’s worth a 2nd+ in my opinion and if the Saints get outbid then so be it but I applaud them for getting in the mix. This is like adding a Kamara level player to WR. Potentially anyway.

Carr gonna have a big game tonight to lure his buddy in to the fold. What better way than to beat the SB champs in their field
