re: Malcolm Butler warming up to the idea of playing in New Orleans

YOU CAN SIGN HIM NEXT YEAR FOR FREE.

So can every other team, and he gets to choose where he wants to play. We trade for him, we own him. He already has 2 rings and is 27 years old. He wants money now. So what's going to happen when a team comes along and throws $15 mil at him when we can only throw $11 or $12? (See Josh Norman last year). This is the right move. A second would be ideal, but giving them back 32 would be just fine. And would cap a so far good-great offseason on paper.
