Flush Winston and sell Kamara. Probably hurts Thomas as well.So the details here make this a flexible deal for the Saints, but the topline numbers are

Saints are restructuring QB Taysom Hill’s contract to create cap room. Details are great: it’s a 4-year, $140 million contract extension - but all years are voidable and it’s a mechanism to free up cap space this year, per source. It saves Saints over $7.5M against cap this year.

Yeah the Vikings stopped using Mattison as much after giving Cook his big contract to the point where beat writers were getting concerned for Cooks long term health.

It’s a “fake” extension to bring his cap number down this year because they’re over. Doesn’t mean anything for Winston yet.

Ok we will see how this washes out, but if Hill is the starter I stand by what I said about Kamara and Thomas.

Had cap problems. Loomis just went from $100 million over to almost under the cap in a week.

This is both True and not true. Take for instance Dallas. The reason i picked them they are 10M over the cap next year and only 28m under the cap in 2023, both last in the league. WFT is 105M and 161M under the cap the next 2 years. Dallas has their offense signed. They are strong on offense but very weak on defense in comparison. WFT is the opposite. You can say well Dallas can just do cap games and sign what they need and this may be true short term. But WFT can do the same games and spend much more. The problem Dallas has is costs are going to rocket next year. 12 Teams have over 90M in cap space next year so there will be more costs for players next year as teams bid for the same FA and that will drive the costs of contracts to keep your own FA from reaching the market. On one hand Dallas has locked in their team strength to a certain cost. WFT has it's strength just coming into the years where it will need to start using it's cap space. It comes down to which will be able to help each teams weakness more efficently, but WFT has more flexibility.

What cap reduction?
I really like Jonnu. Seems like a lot of untapped potential there, that's just more than I thought he would get this year!

Who the heck is this Golson guy? He had Jonnu an hour before Schefty, and he's mentioned some other pretty interesting rumors (Chark to Ravens for Orlando Brown, Hunt to Bills or Fins).
Is this a blind squirrel-nut thing, or should I send out those Hunt and Viska offers stat?

I heard that was a fake. Because original tweet said something about him flying to NY, but players can't do that until Wed....

I saw elsewhere that NYG brass felt they were 90-95% thinking they were getting him.

Is the decreased salary cap slowing things down this year? Seems like this first day moves a lot more quickly the last couple of years.
