@RapSheet: 1 potential landing spot for #Saints coach Sean Payton, if there is, in fact, an opening: The #Chargers. Payton has discussed this privately

@RapSheet: What about #Saints QB Drew Brees, who has a $30M cap figure in 2016? I'm told he has to take a hometown discount to return.

@RapSheet: Internally with the #Saints, there is still frustration that Drew Brees maximized his contract last time. They feel it caused depth issues.



No...your shitty talent evaluation has caused depth issues.

Sean's agent told him. No doubt about that. He likes Rivers as a passer I bet.

I can believe sean may want to leave. What i cant believe, is that he would want rivers as a qb when guys like luck and tannehill (alot younger) have coaching vacancies

Might just be a preference of location as well. But even then He seems more like the Miami type.

Per Ian Rapoport,


I look forward to the days that we can stop getting the Ian Rapaport tweets as if there is any sort of integrity behind his statements, wild guesses. Sadly, he will finally be able to say he got one right about the Saints when Breed gets an extension (as ML & SP said they would do all along before 2016) and reduces his 2016 cap hit.

I'll take the Chargers top 3 pick and a future 2nd rd pick for Sean Payton in a heartbeat. Two top 10 picks in this years draft

I've seen Ian right a ton. but no one is batting 1.000. Its all hit and miss in this business. He is not any better or worse than the rest.

La confora is complete dogshit though

Aren't the Chargers in a bit of turmoil? Why would he go there?

Why do they wait until Sunday morning to drop these tidbits every week?

This is why I have this (kinda crazy) theory about rapoport:

He works for NFL network. He was just a reporter and then one day just randomly became an insider, and had tons of pretty solid sources. Where did he get them?

Goodell. No, I'm serious. Goodell uses Rapsheet to push particular agendas that he wants to. He gives him a great, high-profile, high-paying job and forces tons of people to be sources, and in exchange, he has to become his media weapon for particular agendas.

One of those agendas? Turmoil within the Saints organization. Make them bad. Demoralize their players. Ruin their coach.
