the team will be better served with young talent and cheap contracts buying us more time for the other 2nd contract players like Jordan, Vacarro, Hicks, and others. purging and stripping the roster to pay 5 or 6 guys is not how you win in this league.
Vacarro won't hit the market for 4 more years, but considering Jordan, he'll need a new contract next year. How much do you think he's going to ask for? Are you going to make the same argument that a top young DE isn't worth $9+ mill if next year matches his last?
I've seen multiple posts in this thread arguing that we can't afford JG b/c we need a top receiver, but the reason JG is so necessary is BECAUSE we don't have a top receiver, and it's unlikely that a late 1st round receiver will step in as the #1 you guys are expecting.
That being said, if someone wants to offer 2 #1's for anyone on the roster outside of Brees, I'd take it, and in 2 years I'd take 2 #1's for him too.
