Saints Saints Re-sign Andrus Peat/5 year $57.5M ($33M Guaranteed) (3 Viewers)

[Bespoke]

I was hoping for a 1 year prove it deal just so we have depth.. but 5 years? Hopefully it's heavily incentive based.

I think we all kind of saw this coming.. they weren't about to go into the Draft with Easton and Clapp as the only options at Left Guard... and the only other guy on the market that could have been an upgrade left was Cordy Glenn.

Great. 5 more years of missing his assignments and being on his butt in half the games

Great resign the main reason we lost to Atlanta and Minnesota.

[Saint Spud]

Edit: Nevermind. Just saw $33 million guaranteed. That’s..not great.

I like Peat's versatility. He's fairly solid when healthy, and I think he played pretty banged up last season. I'm not overly excited about this, though, as I do think we could do better.
It does mean one less "must", though, and that's a positive.

 

[Snakehead]

Continuity is huge, this is a really good re-signing.

 

[Wisco Steve]

I am sure it is rather team friendly, he played hurt last year. I think he is young enough to improve. He is versatile and knows our system, that is very important.

57 mill. Cmon guys what is going on

 

[Twags14]

not a fan of those numbers for someone I believe was the weak link on our line.

 

[jasonsw]

Overpaid. Should be 5 yr/10 mill

 

[Joodas Avila]

Quietly, Peat’s dare say one of, if not the best Swing OLs in the league. That solves that. Now lets land Anderson or Manny Sanders.

 

[SaintsNY]

is this upgrading the team? while the bucs are stacking the saints are doing very little. 5 years for 57m? this is an awful deal.

Not excited about this. Routinely injured, and when he plays through the injury, he sucks.
