No I was responding to lester
He was saying why can't taysom be the 2nd qb

Just like last year they can't risk him being an every down player and getting hurt without another capable backup

I expect a big increase in snaps. He was actually a very solid receiver last season, improved greatly.

Chase Daniel is black now

Sad you had to go find a meme to try and prove your shitty point

So you would be cool with losing taysom next year?

You think they just gave him money bc it’s the right thing to do or they may just have a plan for an expanded role for him?


it needs to be real fricking expanded

we're on the low end of Kamara money here

You don’t know his market was bc no one was touching him.

Les is arguing, i think, that we lost nothing by waiting a year. we gained some cap room (the difference in whatever his cap # is this year and 4.6M)

That’s a vague question

At what price? What’s his value to other teams?

He’s a fun piece but hardly makes or breaks anything

what about how this affects us paying Kamara? would you be happy keeping Hill over Kamara? or Ram? or Lattimore?

Those are good points. LE should’ve took that angle

i was reading this thread on my phone and had to jump to my laptop to respond

my 2 main issues are the ones above (esp Kamara b/c this may be the nail in that coffin) and this one: if Taysom was really a backup option, why was Teddy starting? it's not like we leaned on him or used the whole playbook for Teddy (so Taysom didn't have to be Brees-level)

i just don't get the faith in him as a legit starting QB. i'll be perfectly honest

Did you watch the playoff game

You say we have all these pieces, why was he so important in that game?
You said 6th option on offense

Ya’ll are blind.

Taysom is an X factor and he almost single handedly won us the playoff game against the vikes this year.

And his timely 3rd down conversions and power running in short yardage has been critical in several big wins over the past two seasons.

Taysom and Jameis are going to be fighting to prove they can replace Drew.

Its not hard to see why the Saints are making these moves.

No it's not a vague question
Would you be ok with losing him

Say the saints make him wait and don't give him the extra year
What if that pisses him off and he won't sign back

Sure it is

I’d be fine with losing anyone that is paid a ridiculous amount more than what they are worth
