Sean Payton (remains with Saints)

Far as Im concerned, York/Baalke have already blown this coaching search. These 2 are absolutely clueless. You have an opportunity to bring in a guy with his kind of resume for potentially a 2nd rounder??? This organization needs this so bad it hurts. And you dont pull the trigger? I dont care what his salary demands were!!

Make it happen! Unless a big name candidate comes out I just dont know a name that will trump Sean Payton.

Let there be no mistake, Sean Payton was open to leaving New Orleans. But interest in him, with compensation, not what he thought it'd be.

Da fuq did he want $100 mil for 10 years.

Not what he wanted, what Loomis wanted. That whole 2nd rounder rumor was a farce. Gruden trade set precedent and no team is willing to mortgage their future.

Exactly, I remember when this Payton thing first started, I said it would be to expensive if is anything near the Gruden deal and people were saying no man it would be far less like a mid-round pick. Nah, no way. Why would Loomis let Payton go when they have the No. 1 Passing O in the league? All they have to do is to fix the D.

According to some on here, we were going to get him for a 4th . I don't agree with Rascal on much, but I 100% agree on this.

The logic there is if Payton wanted out. If he wanted to leave the Saints then they would have to take whatever they could get. Clearly he didn't want to leave that bad.

Oh well, just have to settle on keeping our 2nd Rd pick... which Baalke will use on an injured player headed to IR.

This is a bogus narrative.

That 2nd round pick can be used for many things -- including a trade up into the top 5 or back into the late 1st round.

Nah, he's more likely to do what I predicted.

In his entire history as GM he has selected 1 injured player in the 2nd round -- Tank Carradine. So, I don't think what you're suggesting is likely at all. In fact, it's a near certainty that he won't.

It wasn't up to him.

It's like Carson Palmer with the Bengals. He wanted out and the Bengals said no until a retarded team offered a 1st AND a 2nd round pick.

Just to reiterate, it was never confirmed that all they wanted was a second. That was all media speculation so please quit running with this "they didn't want to give a 2nd up for a superbowl winning coach" crap.

It's completely ignorant and asinine to blame York and Baalke for the Saints not trading Payton to the 49ers.
