    There’s really no place for either of them to walk in and start.

    Smart. Go learn from Payton and Brees. Play in a few games as either mop up or due to injury. Rehab your value and emerge as either a low end starter elsewhere or walk into the job on a stacked roster.

    I heard Drew Brees talked to Aaron Rodgers and Drew is now "beside himself" over this signing.

    It was a problem for some when Ben had led the league in interception with 16 in 2018,but they wanted a QB who throw the most interception in a single season in the last 30 years at least with 30!

    The Steelers had NO interest in Jameis Winston….

    Didn't the Saints just give Taysom Hill $20 mil for 2 years? That's a hefty QB room salary when you add them all up.

    That's what didn't make sense to me ... Unless Winston is playing for free, I have no idea how they can spend that much money on extra quarterbacks.

    The Saints structure their players' contracts differently with the automatically voids years...

    Just look at Drew Brees' contract as exemple.

    https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/new-orle...ew-brees-4542/

    The Pats did that too with Tom Brady last year.

    Maybe this is a shot at Bruce Arians...

    Maybe, but I'd say more on Dirk Koetter and whoever was their OC for 3 years.

    Arians at least got him to 5000+ yards passing... The INTs were excessive though.

    To be honest, he would be learning behind Drew Brees, so the quote may have some merit.

    Sure, but it still eventually pays...

    Brees 2yr/$50 mil, $25 avg
    Hill 2ys/$21 mil, $10+ avg

    Even if they sign Winston to a "friendly" 1yr/5mil contract... That's 40mil for the QB room. Seems like a lot.

    Last year Ben was @$26 mil, Rudolph @$900,000 and 2 other guys made less than $500,000 each.

    I was actually amazed to learn they are allowing that practice again.

    One of the main reasons behind the rules we have now concerning signing bonuses, dead money, and accelerated cap hits for released/traded players, is because teams were abusing the ability to do the same thing as the "void year." One of the most egregious examples being when the 49ers, I believe, signed Rickey Jackson to a 10-year guaranteed contract at age 37 to cheat on the current year's cap, at which point the league said enough is enough. (Kind of like Ilya Kovalchuk's 17-year contract in the NHL, or Bobby Bonilla's 35-year contract buyout from the Mets - I guess every sports gets one of those and then has to make a rule about it).

    Anyway - yeah, I guess this means they can hide some of the money as dead cap space a season or two down the road. But I never thought I would see it, since basically half the complicated cap rules were put in place to prevent exactly this.

    Yeah,it's legal but it's like breaking the system!

    I am surprised that it is legal and the saints have been doing this with the Brees contract since 2016 .... Maybe in the next CBA (in 2030!).The NFL will settle this!

    It appears that no team wants Superman or Captain crab legs as their starter. I do think Newton can transform a team like the Colts Broncos, or Cardinals ( If he's healthy ) ...but each team has young QB's to play.

    The Colts pissed away 25mil on Rivers for a year.

    The jaguars are the favorite so far for Newton…

    Jacksonville Jaguars – -190
    New England Patriots – +250
    Washington redskins – +375
    Pittsburgh Steelers – +575
    Denver Broncos – +1000

    Re: Which team will sign Cam Newton or Jameis Winston?

    If Winston was that cheap why not here? We could have used him with Ben still a ?

    Hopefully Newton is still around come September and willing to take a deal like this. I really do not want to roll into next season with Rudolph and Duck as our backups to a QB coming off major elbow surgery. If Ben can't go then I say just tank and get into the Trevor stakes!
