Loomis, once again...

We extended Cam Jordan in 2019...




This priced us out of the market for Trey Hedrickson...
Hedrickson left after the 2020 Season!
Hindsight is always 20/20...

How in the world does a post that only stats the facts deserve a Clown?

He was an oft injured player who broke out in his final year after decisions had been made. The breakout priced him out of our range. The decision was to keep Marcus Williams.

Decision was to keep and believe in Marcus Davenport----Front office blew it plain and simple

Because Jordan's extension came before he was on an expiring contract! He was set to be a FA in 2021. That means his 2019 extension (he was 29ys old then) CREATED CAP SPACE because the contract he was playing on was heavily backloaded to accommodate Brees' refusal to sign a real contract in 2016 instead of finishing out his playing years (2017-2020) on "one year" deals that ate up over 10% of the cap.

Resigning Jordan did not lead to losing TRex and no revisionist history will change that fact.

Bad cap management set the team back. Covid cap reduction is just an excuse. Saints played with fire and got burned when their credit card limit went down instead of up.

Facts are not excuses.

Nice decision as usual

You forgot Kaden Ellis bro. We had a probowl defense

Forgot Anzalone too

Hindsight is 20/20.

Imagine if a thread was made for every player the Saints didn’t re-sign yet busted on other teams…

But that’s not the purpose of this thread let’s add Al-quadin Muhammad to the list

Nd Davenport has back to back 17.5 games on the bench for two different teams.

 

[Wisco Steve]

It's sort of crazy that he played this year with no guaranteed money on his deal. You can bet he's not doing that again now. CIN will have a mess on it's hands between that; Tee as a FA, Chase requiring the highest ever contract for a WR and still needing to address a bad defense.

Davenport was in the 3rd year of his rookie contract. We did not keep him over Hedrickson.
I agree the FO probably thought he would become a top DE...

& almost any FO would have given Cam Jordan the contract extension in 2019 instead of letting him leave...

Again hindsight is always 20/20.
That was a tough set of circumstances for any organization.

It was a big mistake, plain and simple.

I remember how excited I was when we drafted him. Glad to see he's still tearing it up.
