Saint Doug Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 I'd absolutely trade for Payton. If the Saints are willing to part ways, he's worth a 4th rounder for sure. He's a solid coach and we haven't had one of those in years. He's another who may be benefiting from having a future HOF QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Tuesday Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 He's another who may be benefiting from having a future HOF QB. Idk about that. He can flat coach up an offense. He's been burned by horrible drafting on the defensive side and poor cap management, neither of which are his fault. That said he strikes me as kind of a jerk.

The saints have over $45m in dead money. They might be s team that makes a big push if the front office utilizes the cap freedom coming their way and hit in the draft. They haven't shown that ability recently but if they do the saints could contend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zulu Cthulhu Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 When trading a coach, does the coach need to agree to the trade? How does that even work... I could see him saying oh hell naw Probably depends on his specific contract. Could have a no trade clause in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Tuesday Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Bet he gets traded to the Rams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 (edited) Bet he gets traded to the Rams.this would make a lot of sense. Do they have any picks left to trade? Edited December 19, 2016 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LI_Bills Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 i think a trade is being discussed, not him getting fired Not sure exactly how it works, but I don't see Payton accepting being traded to the Bills...or any other team he's not interested in coaching. The Colts I could see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitro Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 (edited) Payton as OC. His defenses are the worst no matter the DC. If they trade for him, fantasy football at its best, bring along Drew Brees. Edited December 19, 2016 by Nitro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 (edited) I didn't think this possible but he's been inconsistent and frustrating at times this year. A fresh start might be good for him.... Pros: smart, bold, strong culture builder Cons: loyal to a fault, possibly a little burned out Sometimes even the best coaches stop getting through to the same players over time...he's been there a long time and has been mostly good for them...it might be time for him and Brees to move on.. see New Orleans and San Diego as prime examples that HOF level Qb's do not automatically mean you make the playoffs every year...

Marv's Neighbor Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Remember early in the season, we were 0-2, and the Tom Coughlin sightings started. He'll be back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
