PetermansRedemption Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 What kind of extension could Thomas possible warrant? 8 games the past 50 lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoSaint Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 It’s likely tacking on fake years to reduce his cap hit, primarily 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_In_NH Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 The saints are probably stuck with his current deal so they are gonna make it worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DapperCam Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 It will lower his cap per year but spread it out over a longer time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milanos Milano Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 Carr could barely do anything with Adams, I don’t see him doing much with Thomas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProcessTruster Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 Saints are toast for the foreseeable future. Incredibly poorly run franchise. They are simply fortunate to be surrounded by similarily poorly run franchises. Brady chose well by going to the Bucs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adams set the Raiders record for most receiving yards in a season. 1516 yards, 100 catches, 14 TD's. Thomas is not Adams though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 The games Thomas played last year he looked like his old self. It is a gamble but if you are bringing Carr in, Olave is a STUD and you get Thomas as a possession guy.... that offense could get good quickly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that is a bad division and I think their defense is too good for them to suck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree fully. so they end up 10-7 and get bounced early? they aren’t Super Bowl contenders in my book unless a few guys make big jumps. MT being one but also kamara returning to form, honey badger not continuing to decline, finding a fill at TE… and coaching improving a lot. They were terrible on that front. it’s possible but it feels like they pushed a lot of cap hits down the line to be a team that will be good enough to save jobs for a year or two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If say Carolina were on track and project Rhule had worked and they won the division last year and had a young QB installed I'd say the Saints should tear it down. But when you are a vet QB away from having a couple of years of competitive football and playoff games.... I think that is a move you can make.
