meezy0236 Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Oh no, they will be in trouble for the 2021 cap! D@MN YOU LOOMIS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rewind Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Loomis is a ******* genius. Plain and simple. Gettelmen keeps letting cap strapped come out of his mouth every ******* interview. Loomis finds a way being in worst shape cap wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PantherWake Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 They might as well just have the Top 3 NFC South teams and the Top 3 NFC West teams in for the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st. diehard Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Oh no, they will be in trouble for the 2021 cap! D@MN YOU LOOMIS!Go easy on him. I'm sure it was a very difficult decision for him on whether to save some valuable cap space or sign a probowler.He's probably worn out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falconidae Posted March 12, 2014 Author Share Posted March 12, 2014 Well, that surprised me, thought sure he'd go to one of the teams that could give him more money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintRay Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Wow .... 6 year deal pretty much locks him up for awhile. Teamed with Vaccaro the Saints defensive center field is in great shape. Say what you guys want about Loomis, but the guy gets it done year after year after year,And while I'm at it, let me say the NFC South moves impressed me as well today.

Da Bird is Da Word Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Omg **** that team. Y'all can be like forty million over the cap and still sign the best free agent on the market. May as ******* well go out there and get Revis while you're at it. Don't y'all need a WR? Hey just pull some money out yer *** and sign Hakeem Nicks. **** it get Ware too!All hail Loomis!

Kevo Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Found it!http://mweb.cbssports.com/nfl/eye-on-football/24478882/saints-sign-jairus-byrd-to-six-year-dealThe Saints weren't supposed to have any money and Jairus Byrd -- our top available free agent -- wanted a lot of money. So it's pretty, pretty, pret-tah surprising that the two came together on a six-year contract.But that's what happened late on Tuesday, with the team announcing the deal after we learned that Byrd was taking a visit to the Bayou.The #Saints have agreed to terms with 3-time pro bowl safety @JairusByrd on a 6-year deal!8:23 PM - 11 Mar 2014New Orleans Saints @Saints Follow1,703 RETWEETS 694 FAVORITESThe structure of this contract should be fascinating to see, given that the Saints came into free agency just $2.4 million under the salary cap and needing to pay Jimmy Graham. (I'm sure he's just thrilled that they're handing out contracts!)New Orleans still has room to move -- Darren Sproles is reportedly getting dealt, even if he doesn't know it --but there's just not a lot of space there. It's what makes the move particularly impressive.From a strict football perspective, this is awesome news for the Saints. Kenny Vaccaro and Byrd as a safety combination is going to be ridiculous. They'll thump people across the middle and should generate plenty of turnovers in Rob Ryan's defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEVEN THREADS... more than our own three signings put together.Y'all truly up in some falcons' heads...There's an equal number, and several of the Byrd threads are the ones that all pop up at the same time when news breaks. Lots more threads about the big 3 signings on pages 2-3 as well.So, the Saints had 2 mil in cap space, really want to see how they manage this one.
