They have to shave 100 million from their salary cap. I look forward to the fire sale.

I never disliked Bree's. Just the Saints as a whole, Payton and F'in bounty gate Greg Williams. So overall very happy the Buccs won. I also like Brady and was happy he was been able to show up the stable genius Bellycheat.

It's not believable to me that Brees was unaware of Bountygate. I don't think he needed the same punishment as Williams and Payton (lifetime ban deserved for both), but he was completely excused from it.

I also think it's disgusting that it apparently cannot be mentioned by anyone associated with the NFL.

2 years ago I thought cap hell would be upon the Saints, it didn't happen.

They've been pushing back and mortgaging cap space since then.

Now it's 95 million in 2021.

I mean, there's no way they move dollars around in such a way to resign players or rework deals without a mass exodus,right?

I mean I suppose anything is possible but I don't think it is likely. I don't think they can keep everyone.

One would assume that if Brees is out, a rebuild is in order no?

I would love to see the Saints collapse into a smoking heap of horse crap, but Payton has had a year coaching (rehabilitating) Jameis Winston and should have the inside track to re-sign him. Mock Winston for his 2019 30-INT season, but 5 years ago he was a unanimous #1 pick and has all the physical skills for success. My hunch is he used Taysom Hill this year to avoid Winston looking good and getting a contract elsewhere like Bridgewater did.

It makes me sick, but Payton could already have Brees' successor in place, and he (Winston) will be the same age this year as Brees was when the Saints acquired him.
