Y'all know I keep it real on this. My agent told me the saints made me an offer and it is respectable...

He said on the radio a while back he felt disrespected because he wanted to stay, but they didn't make an offer. Of course, he also said he wanted to be the highest paid G in the league. Hopefully he likes it here to accept a reasonable offer.

He's got to be the most wide receiver acting O-Lineman in the league.

prolly cuz he had been tweeting so much how butt hurt he was that they had not

There's a load of tweets to him from other players encouraging him to stay. You can tell there is some special camaraderie among these guys.

If he wants respect and more Lombardi-gras he can stay. If he wants to enter the tmz world of Jeruh Zone let him walk.

I think I'm ok with him leaving.

We do have more pressing needs elsewhere.

But the SR poster with rock solid inside info said that we wouldn't have even franchised him because he didn't say thank you when Sean Payton held a door open for him.

Well! The Saints are at least trying. It's up to Nicks now.

Exactly

If he turns it down then we know he is all about the money and not staying with his teammates and a winning team.

This is good news everybody. We will know where we stand.

I don't think that's fair. Even if he took a bigger contract, I have don't think it would be ALL about the money for him.

It's also easier to part with money that's not yours.

He's already got a ring and kept his mouth shut over the past two years while he made about 8% what he was actually worth. If he goes to Cincinatti because they offered an extra million or two over 6 years, yeah, that's one thing. But if he goes to a team with a shitload of cap space that can offer him an extra $2-3m a year and is a few pieces away from being a contender, it would be pretty childish to rag on him for it. Don't act like Drew Brees didn't do pretty much exactly that six years ago (getting the most cash, I mean).

Jesus Christ. We don't owe evans 50 mil. Man. A bunch of his contract has been paid. What i hope is that nicks stays and convinces brees to follow suit.
