I think Rattler will be moved for a pick but I mostly agree otherwise

I tend to agree but didn’t know who else to cut… Godchaux has a good bit of dead $$ too, but Ridgeway clearly outplayed him last year

Ridgeway basically took over Godchaux’s snaps to end the season

I wasn’t the biggest fan of Rattler. Didn’t seem like he had downfield vision. Would prefer Wilson play well enough to replace him atleast for this season.

If Shougg doesn’t play well Saints are in trouble. Just prefer to not see Rattler.

Ty Chandler is making the team. Kendre and his hamstring need to limp their arse out of town.

Dude averaging 3 ypc the last two years doesn't have an inside track on anybody.

Doubtful that we keep Chandler > Neal. Trade Kendre. Etienne/ AK/ Estime/ Neal.

I for some reason read that bassakwards. Should be a battle to watch. Zach has his shot as I'm sure his skills are more what CKM is looking for in a QB.
