Fleener will likely be June cut

Maybe, maybe not. We just guaranteed $3.4 million of his contract this year. Can't imagine we did that with the plan to cut him.

Gotcha. That’s right. Can cut and designate June cut before, right? So guaranteeing that money doesn’t make sense.

Agreed, our offense last season was great.... EXCEPT on 3rd down and in the Red Zone... which is exactly what you would be bringing Jimmy in to fix

Of course, all this is moot if a Brees deal doesn't get done in the next 9 days... tick tock tick tock

Unlikely. Keeping him about a month back instead of cutting him then gave him more guaranteed money. If he was going to be cut it would've been before then.

Edit:
And of course I forgot to refresh the page before posting.

Hooman is likely to be cut if we're drafting or signing someone in FA. Fleener was safe the second we guaranteed that portion of his contract.

You cannot go into the season with Hill as the most experienced TE in this system, that'd be absurd and downright stupid.

I agree with that and then give Graham the upper hand with his agent knowing we are thin at TE.

I would love to have Jimmy back but I don’t want to pay over 10 million for him.

He said over $10 mil, so $10,000,000 is fine. $10,000,000.01 is not.

How much you think he will command? He was nowhere the threat in Seattle as in NO.

Jimmy knew it was a business decision.
He wants a ring, Drew wants another ring.
Jimmy knows he has a great shot at a ring and the record books under Drew.
He'll be back if the numbers are right and fair

Won't be dirt cheap but I do hope the contract he gets is heavy on incentives if we are lucky.
