So you don’t like Kupp then? Because that’s what WRs cost. Actually that’s fairly cheap.


Why would anyone like a 32 year old WR who has missed at least 5 games the last 3 seasons with the current state of our cap/roster? Paying him 3/45 is how bad teams stay bad.

He hasn’t played more than 12 games since 2021 and has been under 900 yards. Multiple analysts say he doesn’t get separation anymore.

So you wanted us to repeat the same mistake?


No I said from the get go that he’s a waste of time for us. It’s not a move for the future. But he was always going to get $15M per year lol. We just paid a bum tight end 10 million a year

This board acts like they want him, we miss on him and now they’re saying ohh we were lucky to miss out because 15 is too much … It’s just hilarious how fast they can flip a narrative

No one ever wanted him for $15m. “The board” isn’t a thing, it’s individual posters and you can’t keep straight who said what.

Literally the third post in the thread saying the Saints were interested was this and it got 40 upvotes and 1 down, so again what are you talking about.

Would feel much better 3-5 years ago. Paying for aging declining players is a Loomis special.

Good question. I said from the get go not to get him. But $15M/year for Kupp is not surprising at all. Thats the market, there are plenty of bum WRS that make as much or more. That’s what he was always going to cost. Bum arse Christian Kirk makes like 20 a year

He was always going to cost that. We just gave a TE who would have a hard time making some nfl rosters 10 million dollars a year.

It’s actually 2025 bro.


good point

In the Saints position I really don’t want any free agents over 30. Dodged a bullet if they were offering anything longer than 1 year.
