Trade Deadline Thread

Outstanding return. Can't wait to see what Caserio extracts from the Fins for Deshaun. Boy they're really firing on all cylinders over there.

My favorite part of this is not that it's a 7th round pick in exchange for your best running back, no, uh-uh, it's that it's all the way out in mfking 2024.

Anyway, hopefully they use the pick to acquire a player of uncompromising character and outstanding leadership.

2024 7th for a 31+ yr old RB on a half season's contract. That this is 2024 is laughable until you read what the Saints are actually getting. A half-eaten ham sandwich is more than what the Saints should have offered.

Yeah, that tells me the Texans were close to meeting his request to cut him before they found someone to offer something for him.

The Saints thought enough of him to make sure that he had an extension signed for next year.

A fool and his money-slash-draft picks are soon parted. Show me a list of all the other teams bidding on Ingram.

Anyone believe this? From @Saints:

Ingram said the Texans said if any other team had called about trading for him, it wouldn't have been a discussion but out of respect for him and how he started here they wanted to give him the option

I don't doubt the Texans said it. I doubt another team called offering anything truly better.

Ingram didn't let Brandin Cooks know I guess.

@brandincooks
This is bullshit. Such a joke

My favorite part is that if we gave up a 3024 7th rounder for a 31 year old RB you'd talk about how stupid we were.

The Texans do more dumb stuff than any franchise in sports. You don't have to jump on not dumb stuff. Just wait a day for our next dumb move.
