Patriot Killa Posted December 18, 2016 Author Share Posted December 18, 2016 Link and article. http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/saints-arent-expected-to-ask-for-much-to-trade-sean-payton-during-offseason/ A year after the Colts considered acquiring Saints coach Sean Payton, and a year after Payton signed a lucrative extension in New Orleans, a change of scenery is still possible. League sources said the Saints -- adrift in another lost season and with veteran quarterback Drew Brees spiraling in recent weeks -- would consider moving the coach should there be suitors, and it would not likely require hefty trade compensation. The Saints are dealing with several issues regarding ownership and the possible structure of football operations moving forward. Brees, who turns 38 on Jan. 15, has one year left on his contract, and doing another one-year extension may be tricky given his struggles after a strong start. He has thrown nine touchdowns to nine interceptions in New Orleans' last five games, four of them losses; only Philip Rivers has more interceptions in that span. Moving Payton's contract would free up about $40 million at a time when owner Tom Benson's health and the future of ownership is in question, and that money, along with the $25 million in cash/cap savings that would occur whenever Brees departs, would go a long way to providing an influx of means to rebuild this team. Benson has also struggled with his NBA franchise, both in the standings and at the box office. "I don't think it would take all that much to get him, actually," said one source with knowledge of the situation. "I don't think [GM] Mickey [Loomis] would hold him back or ask for all that much in return at this point." Payton has had a long and successful stint in New Orleans, taking the formerly moribund franchise to a Super Bowl title, but the idea of a new challenge wouldn't be without attraction. The Saints may be undergoing a front office restructuring of sorts, and, mired in salary cap hell in recent years, adding young, cheap draft picks would appeal to them. Landing Payton would qualify as an immediate impact move during a year in which there is not a preponderance of hot coaching candidates, and with other options somewhat limited. The Colts, for instance, could make a move for a coach again a year after deciding to extend Chuck Pagano. The Rams would be an appealing job. The Chargershave a lot of strong young individual talent, and Rivers is a few years younger than Brees. Payton is a California native with family there and previously coached at San Diego State, so the Southern California jobs could have a particular appeal. Bills probably also a possibility.

BrickzNY Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Just the type of guy Woody johnson won't hire. I'd be calling to get rid of Sheldon for Payton. Payton is the exact type of coach I want this team to hire. Which means we will just continue with Bowles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Jets wanted to fire Rex, they should have done it when Andy Reid was out there. You don't fire a bum and then replace him with another bum because there's nothing else available.

AFJF Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 I wouldn't hate the move, but haven't the Saints been bottom-3 in points allowed for the past decade or so? He'd be coming here w/o Brees to put up 35 points a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
