Says the guy who thinks Dejounte fricking Murray is the best player on our roster

Who is the best player on our roster then? You do know he's our only 2 way player? He is the only player on our team who is top 3 on both offense and defense. You don't think the guy who at his best averaged 21pts/ 8reb/ 9ast/ 2stl in a season can be our best player?

The amount of idiots that don't understand having Poole gives us $30mil to use and NOT having Poole/ CJ gives us NOTHING to use is astonishing. Y'all really don't even know wtf you are saying.

Pelicans having Poole for $30mil and being able to take back $30mil is a good thing.

Pelicans having Z for $40mil and being able to take back $40mil is a good thing.

Whatever bullshite "could have" "should have" response to this doesn't matter. Having them now is better than not having them now. We do not gain anything not having those guys.

it's because he has what 60 PRs because Titans are awful?

He doesn't return his own teams punts. He does have the most KRs because the Titans are awful.

Not an expert on it, but everything I’ve seen says SOS is the first tiebreaker for draft slot

I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure SOS is the first tiebreaker if there isn't a H2H.

Technically H2H wouldn't be the 1st "tiebreaker" because it eliminates the tie

Wasting the first 8 weeks with Rattler cost us

You call it a waste, I call it a guaranteed top end draft pick.

I'd add 23 y/o Sanker to that group.

Estime needs a TD.
Dude has been working.
Hope to see him back next game

I don't get the exaggerated RB takes. Estime and Neal look fine even with this shitty OL. Give them a push and RB is not anywhere close to a "need" compared to other roster spots.

Absolute Needs

Cut Radunz.
Cut Taysom
Cut the 2 fumble recovery players
Resign Alontae and then cut him

We really have a curse for DB's. Every time we sign or trade for a vet they end up absolute shite.

Every single competent DB has been drafted or signed undrafted.

Lattimore, Bell, Williams, CGJ, Adebo, etc.

Even Godchaux, Shepherd, DD, and Cam are playable but almost every single vet DB that comes here is washed garbage no matter the age.

If we singed a 35 y/o DL or LB from another team I'd have more confidence they are playable by the end of the season > a 26 y/o DB from another team.

I could have sworn that 2nd down run was a first down. They just marked it 3rd and didn’t even give it a second look?

---

My biggest pet peeve from Kellen Moore. This is the 3rd/ 4th time we got a 1st and they marked it short without any argument or bitching from our coach. He even went in to hurry up a few times.

That's a big deal IMO. I really hope a reporter calls him out on it. It is extremely necessary.

Our future is in our 2 rookies, making decisions to try and "win" next season is what screwed us with AD and again with Zion, why would you want to do that again?

---

Making decisions to win because of Z/ AD is way different than making decisions to win in spite of AD/ Z. This is not the same scenario.

I want the Pels to trade Z but he's worth more than 1-2 late 1sts and since we have leverage (he's on contract and we don't need him) then we can look for the right package instead of getting rid of him for expirings.

quote:

Free up the space.

---

We don't free up space by trading Zion, stop saying this stupid shite. I'd rather a 40% chance of having someone come off the bench to put up 25pts in 25min than whatever tf $5mil in cap space will give us.

Getting rid of Z for expirings gives us barely any cap space. It would give us $30mil to extend players on our roster and we don't even have anyone that needs an extension for another 1-2 years. If you trade Poole/ Murray its only Bey for the next 3 years.

You have to trade Z for someone who needs that extension/ new contract or has similar salary/ impact in order for that to make any sense. That would instantly be more stupid or risky than any trade we've made the last few years.
