With that idea in mind, IMO this is fairly realistic Diggs = Diggs Franklin > John Brown C. Samuel = E. Sanders Shakir = Beasley I've been wondering about him, I thought he was still under contract with the Saints? If the guy is healthy I'm interested EDIT: He's not a UFA "Thomas has played just 20 games in the last four seasons, has found himself in conflict with his Saints bosses, and last season settled for a salary reduction from $15.5 million to $1.165 million (but with a massive roster bonus of $32 million as part of some cap manipulation, still a sign of a coming goodbye). He did manage to play in 10 games and caught 39 balls for one TD, so he was largely insignificant." https://www.si.com/nfl/cowboys/news/dallas-cowboys-blockbuster-trade-new-orleans-saints-michael-thomas-proposed-media-move-fit-rumor-dak-prescott https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/39539615/saints-offseason-jameis-winston-michael-thomas-rashid-shaheed-more WR Michael Thomas Thomas isn't a free agent, but he has major roster bonuses built into his contract that would facilitate a release. Thomas was once a key part of the Saints' offense, but he hasn't played a full season since 2019. Thomas was also arrested last season after an altercation with a local contractor over a parking issue in his neighborhood. Thomas played 10 games in the 2023 season before being placed on injured reserve for the rest of the season with a right knee injury. Considering his salary and his injury history, he likely could be looking for a fresh start. 2024 status: Under contract What the Saints might do: Likely release

Ideally we can keep 1 of AJ or Floyd otherwise Beane is going to forget about WR's and go crazy with defense the entire draft

of course....right when he starts making a difference

glad to see you’re feeling better😂

😡

would prefer him to be WR3 Diggs Rookie Samuel Shakir (mostly slot) Rookie Shorter it looks like he did have an impressive season under Brady with 851 receiving and 200 rushing

he’s 27. 5’11 which is taller than I expected to see and ran a 4.3 40. His floor is an instant upgrade from Sherfield

Does this mean we get calls going our way now

How about a trade to NYG? Dawson Knox, 2nd & 4th in 25 for Dexter Lawrence? lol

Samuel had his best season under Joe Brady .....wait for it.....here they come those dreaded words.... IN CAROLINA NOOOOOOOOOOO 🤣

Samuel or Mooney could be good value signings

Evans and a high rookie would be a grand slam! Sanders and Brown.....perhaps Tyler Boyd and Hollywood Brown are those type of players? I don't see any way Beane actually pulls this off, but it would be terrifying for the AFC Evans Diggs T. Franklin Shakir Rookie mid rounds Shorter

IF we're going to keep Diggs, we need to find a way to add 2 more legit playmakers to go along with Shakir Diggs C. Sutton Franklin Shakir - Slot C. Samuel Shorter Something along these lines

I'm not the biggest fan of Knox, but the guy was a very solid red zone target in 2021 and 2022. He also has 6 Playoff TD's

That was such a strong 4 WR set. I hope Beane outdoes himself over the next few months

I wonder what you said when the trade was made. Somehow I doubt it was Gimme Justin Jefferson

Draft Buzz has Franklin rated #25 and Thomas Jr #28 I made the move before the draft and thankfully both players I wanted were available at 23. Then Thomas made it to 28 Also quite happy with who I was able to get in Rounds 2-4. DT value wasn't there in the 2nd though In order to acquire 23, we could trade next year's 1st + another pick / roster player Or we could trade Diggs + a mid and late rounder

My bad! Misread it!

Cutting Morse could not be wise. The OL is FINALLY good. Re-do his deal instead

I'd like to see a list of WR Trade targets we could realistically afford

This would be fine with me. He produced at a solid level in only 8 games in 2022

Chinn or Brandon Jones. Either would be a nice pickup. DT Roach seems good too

+7500 to +1000 shift doesn’t happen unless they actually know something

They are much much more fortunate that’s for sure. Everything goes their way when it matters

saw a clip of him working out the other day…. he’s just different. Can still be elite for a few more seasons IMO
