Thomas has made it clear he doesnt want to be here.

Compensation to get Beckham is 0.

Add Beckham now, let 13 get healthy and send him packing in the offseason.

Net positive IMO.

We need draft ammo for a QB. 13 helps us add a 1st round pick.

How many times do you people have to be told that Thomas is untradable until 23? Sheesh.

MT is a better WR than OBJ, they are both divas. We are going to have to pay for MT even if we trade him. You keep MT.

1) Thomas is younger & better than Becham.
2) Both have been distractions to the team, so that's a wash
3) You want to take the WR position, which is a weakness right now with not much depth, and you want to remove a top 5 WR from the group to sign a, while still very good, a lesser WR that has an injury history. Leaving us 1 play away from being in the same position we are in right now....Genius

Dont forget, OBJ’s contract is currebtly through the end of the this season, so you are gonna have to give him a new pretty decent contract to keep him. And we are already gonna be up against the cap

Payton made it clear that Thomas wanted to play and there was nothing he could have done to avoid the setback. I’m not sure why you idiots keep making this shite up with literally nothing to back it up.

Provide proof where Thomas made it clear he doesn’t want to be here. If you can’t do that then stop posting this nonsense.

OBJ is a much bigger headcase than Thomas is. And Thomas is a better receiver. Your post is terrible.

Proof?

Pissing “non-snowflake” fans off =/= distraction to the team

I don't know what is going on with Mike Thomas, but if he is really hurt and did have a setback, that simply is shite luck.

Right now, the Saints must add a WR and a TE to this roster. Putting OBJ on the field with Kenny Stills and Tre'Quan Smith would be a great start. But if they don't, you're really looking at a .500 club. That's still a giant accomplishment considering what has happened to this team with Ida, at QB, OL injuries, WR injuries, RB injuries, DL injuries and Mike Thomas being out all season.

Which one is more expensive?

Which one will net a high draft pick?

MT, but we gonna pay for him whether we keep or cut him. We don't save money cutting or trading MT.

Michael Thomas’ contract makes it impossible to move him before 2024

Now when the new tv deal money hits, you could maybe make the case, but that’s impossible to predict.

The Saints are trading MT13 right before the next draft no matter what the cap implications.

Micheal Thomas is Kapernick 2.0. Will play the race card issue and lean on his crutch until he ruins his career. Then blame the white man and his privilege. BOOK IT. Trade him cut him just get rid of the trash.

OBJ has turned into a stereotypical NFL WR DIVA! If he’s not targeted every other play he starts sulking & dropping bombs on his team & coaches via Social Media. Plus OBJ has a Andrus Peat-Like knack for being injured & having to miss multiple games. See below………

OBJ Stats:
• 1st 3 yrs: Averaged 1385 Rec Yards, 11 TDs &
14 games played per Season.
• Last 4 yrs: Averaged 677 Rec Yards, 3 TDs &
9.75 games played per Season
