Minimum for payton should be what was received for gruden. Payton wont a superbowl and was more successful than gruden.

Two first-round picks; two second-round picks; $8 million

8 million in 2002 is $12,622,615 so lets call it 12.5 million cash

To break it down even further the Bucs gave the Raiders a 1st and second round pick in 2002 (21st and 53rd overall)
A first in 2003(32nd overall). A second in 2004 (33rd overall and $8 million cash. Originally the Raiders also wanted Warren Sapp but settled for the cash. This is what is at stake and this is why the Saints need to play hardball. A precedent was set with the Gruden trade. It is childish to even think that they would let him walk out with 3 years left on his contract only to go to a competitor, especially your highly successful Super Bowl winning coach without exacting a heavy price. The media and public in general would rake them over the coals.

Loomis is going to send 10lbs of crawfish, a bag of Zapps potato chips and in exchange get a 4th and a 6th in good gesture for Payton.

Loomis has to get two 1sts to offset the shitshow of trading he did this last offseason.

The price has to be two 1sts. The market will be competitive for Sean imo. We shall see.



My guess is the Saints get a 3rd or 4th round pick back for him.




How about a ban bet that they get more than that?

That’s extreme. I said I was guessing. None of us know.

That's an honest answer.

I fully expect at least one first if our front office is actually trying. And I suspect either team if they decide to move on from their current coach, would be willing to give up that for Payton. Both teams are in a position to forgo at least one first-round pick, if not two.

If we actually knew each other, I'd bet you a beer. win-win there.

Not worried about Loomis as much as Gayle.


I always tend to wonder how involved she actually is and how much of Payton's decision to leave centered around ownership, as I know he was pretty close to her late husband.
