Idk man all it takes is one or two injuries and all of a sudden we’re thin at CB. I’d rather stack up on good CB’s than go back to what we were before we drafted Lattimore.

You'd save about $1M from this year's cap. Looks like 2025 cap would go from $31.4M to $31.6M. Roll that $1M over to next year and you save $800k against a cap you are about $80M over

It's crazy what they have done with the cap. A 29/30 yr old corner should not have a 31 mil cap hit from a contract he signed 4 years ago.

If these numbers are right you can see why the Saints won’t do it. It basically costs you the same to keep him as to cut/trade him.

And given that you aren’t getting much in return there really is no benefit.

Well, I guess that's it. I try to keep positive thinking on my Saints but get crushed by the Loomising factor. Who do we not re-sign next year? That should be the question.
