I don’t want any player who’s afraid of competition.KB can stay where he’s at.

I would be Ok with paying Olave at the bottom tier of the current top ten. Such a number would soon be top 25-30 money for WR’s. I’d just as soon get him signed rather than paying big franchise rage $ and then possibly having to pay even more with him not as happy bc of being tagged.

Lance wouldn’t make it to the practice squad. He’ll make the 53, just may be a healthy inactive early on.

Highly highly unlikely they’d do that with a 4th round pick. He’d have to show almost nothing in camp and preseason. And then chances are another team would pick him up off waivers so he’d never make it to our PS.

He's statistically a Top 10 WR. He isn't getting paid more than Chase/ JSN and Pickens/ Puka jump him within the next year. Giving him "Top 3" money really means Top 5 and probably #10-#15 in 2 years.

You can't say "bottom tier of Top 10" because those guys either aren't close to him or aren't close to the evaluation from 2-3 years ago...The bottom tier of Top 10 would get very similar money if they are paid right now.

Its so hard for y'all to understand that guys in the #8-#15 range got paid sooner. Doesn't mean they are "worth" less than Olave.

We wouldn't be overpaying for Olave, we are just paying him 2 years later than other guys.

If you bought a stock at $100 and someone bought it 3 years later at $300 while it continues to climb they didn't"overpay". That's just the current value.

You can be upset you didn't get in at a good time but it has absolutely nothing to do with an overpay or improper evaluation. That is the value and what he's worth right now. If we were paying him at a rate of 2-3 years ago then yeah this would make sense.

Bijan costs $5.5mil a year. Bijan is not worth only $5.5mil a year. This shite isn't linear.

Boutte has always been a head case. it’s why he fell so far in the draft. Unless you can get him REAL cheap, I’d stay far away from him.

My guess is we drafted heavy WR to not only compliment Olave, but for insurance if we can't sign him.


They are definitely signing olave. I would be shocked if it wasn't done before the season starts.

The only way I would extend Olave if we can get as little as possible guaranteed. Of course, that will depend on what other teams are willing to offer. We could make him a top-10 paid receiver, however, I would give him as little of a signing bonus as possible and make as little as possible guaranteed. His injury history is just too risky.

The real money is the guaranteed. Your thinking left the nfl long ago as to today's big contracts. Just look at the top ten to twenty WRs and the guaranteed money.

And what I’m saying is that any team that is willing to give him top-10 WR guaranteed money are fools given his injury history. It’s just not f*cking worth it. if a team is stupid enough to do it, then I think it’ll come back to bite them in the arse. And I don’t want that team to be the Saints.

Give him top-10 WR money, just don’t make it guaranteed no matter what other top 10 WR‘s are getting guaranteed.

I'd rather just extend Olave or have him play out the final year of his contract and see how the season goes
