Underhill your argument against restructuring contracts is flawed. One reason that New Orleans is an attrictive destination is that they remain faithful to their core players. If we cut bait and become a cold-hearted business model we will lose the good will and family factor. Would you really want to have the Saints divorced from Cameron Jordan and he goes elsewhere before he retires? There's something special and important about your key players being Saints for life? Wouldn't it have been unthinkable to have Drew playing out his last few seasons on another team? I always hated it in the old days when we'd let a key player go and they'd become a falcon, panther or buc. I'm for this loyalty of family business model. And no one thinks the Patriots treatment of players is a heartwarming story. The patriots business is cold and all business who wants that? When free agency began I didn't like it. I don't like seeing my favorite players leave. That's why college football isn't my favorite because it's not so much about who's on your team. Actually since kneeling started a few years ago, I don't like the players as much as I used to. So now I'm sort of arguing against myself, but Jordan was never part of the kneeling issue anyway. And just for the record, I'm glad Michael Thomas is gone. He revealed himself as a low character teammate several years ago.
Is it really an "attractive" place to play? I'd rather be cold hearted and winning than faithful and losing every year. Saints haven't done much in 4 seasons.
Hill will be more of a RB than a QB or TE this year. He always gets left off the conversation in that RB room and/or backfield. If Alvin shuffles feet, i can see Hill getting a dozen or more touches out of the backfield a game which now includes taking handoffs and pitch outs.
It’s a shame that the So Cal Saints Fans are not allowed to watch the Saints Training Camp ! Every Team has their Fans watching Training Camp except for the Saints ! Another Bad decision by this Organization ! This is a one time opportunity for us and this Staff is keeping us out ! Sean Payton never did that to us ! Every West Coast Trip we were able to watch them even during the season a few years back between West Coast games ! Dennis Allen better get us to the Playoffs this Season ! If not we need to Rebuild this Organization from the Top to Bottom ! Locking the Fans out from Training Camp is inexcusable ! Another bad decision by a bad Organization ! 3 Playoff- less Seasons in a Row is Unacceptable ! We’re always in Cap Hell ! Poor Scouting / Drafting and bad Personnel Decisions by this current administration has been our Biggest Problem ! Giving Up High Draft Choices in Questionable Trades ( Davenport , Olave ) poor Draft selections with the 1st round picks ( Turner , Penning , Ruiz ) letting Anzalone and Hendrickson leave are just some of the bad decisions that have plagued this currently bad Saints Organization ! I’m a Saints Fan since 1967 and a New Orleans Native that relocated to San Diego in the 80’s . I’ve witnessed some bad Saints Teams with some bad Saints Coaching and I hope and pray that this isn’t another one ! I hope the Critics are wrong ! Success in the Game of Football starts in the Trenches and unfortunately that’s where we have the most question marks ! Dennis Allen’s Track Record speaks for itself ! Bill Parcell says you are what your record shows you are ! We have had 2 good Drafts in 06 and 2017 the rest were horrible ! 50 Million Dollars a Year for a 2nd Tier Mediocre QB ? The same people responsible for those decisions are the same people who have made the decision to keep So Cal Saints Fans Locked Out ! This will never happen again and we aren’t going to be able to see them here ! Another Terrible Decision by our Terrible Organization !
Jeez, the No.1 concern isn't even the Offensive Line. This is a quarterback driven league and if your quarterback is not playing well, you will not win. And the book on Carr when he came in, one of several things actually (though to be clear I am not really a Carr-hater) was that he struggled in new systems. And then what happened last season? He struggled until the last seven games. And then what did we do? We CHANGED THE SYSTEM! The No.1 concern on this team, far and away, is whether or not Carr struggles. Sure, the OL, the running game, the receivers, how the defense shapes the game for the offense, these all effect quarterback play. But if Carr can't be on the same page with his receivers AGAIN, if he's holding on the ball too long, if he's struggling again in the red zone, then our ceiling remains pretty much what last year was no matter how well the rest of the team does. CARR is the No.1 concern, the No.1 variable, until he proves he's not. Just by virtue of his position and his past-performance.

Thanks Nick.....the background is much better.....it makes the Pictures of the players Pop !!!
Man..... Brandon is really Progressing !!
Dalvin Cook especially with the Kamara issue ! This System used multiple Backs with the 49ers.
A 1 or a 2 wide receiver that can start AND run block so the disguises actually work.... Which we currently don't have on the roster.
Hunter Renfrow
Nick really taking advantage of Mike's day off to get a few words in 😂
Got rid of Darren Sproles too early and it bit us in the butt. I believe AK takes better care of himself then Darren did.

David Bahktiari
