  1. If the Saints roster was closer to competing I'd have kept Brees, but they just aren't. He probably only has a couple great years left and I don't want to go all in, so I'll build a bit more towards for the future. Linebacker has been a long time problem and McKinney is a young freak. Jackson is still a really solid outside corner and should for a few more years. Also I think Brees has been traded like the last three years in this game which is interesting.

    Saints give:

    Drew Brees, QB       (Special Cap move for Saints, +19 stars for Saints, -13 stars for Texans)

    Willie Snead, WR     (+0.5 stars for Saints, -0.5 stars for Texans)

     

    Texans give:

    Benardrick McKinney, ILB    (+0.5 stars for Texans, -1 star for Saints)

    Kareem Jackson, CB           (+4.5 stars for Texans, -6.5 stars for Saints)

    Round 5, pick 25 

    Confirmed, but I think it's +13 for me with Brees, not 19. Only base salary is factored for the special trade.

    So happy to get Chaz Green...he filled in well for Tyron Smith last year in the couple games he played and whats more important is that Ereck Flowers is no longer pegged as my starting LT. He was so rough at times last year it was just hard to watch. Maybe he can make it as a RT, maybe

    I don't know how Flowers went 9th overall. I thought he was more of a third rounder.

  6. Run defense will definitely be worse without B Williams (pass rush won't though, Pierce is more effective there), but we were one of the very best in the league at that. The offense was pathetic and now you're going to let go one of the best RT's? Sure Lewis could replace him, but it'd be a downgrade. And then LG would turn into a downgrade as well. It's a thin OL draft and FA class (especially at OT) and most teams are desperate for OL right now. All of a sudden the offense looks even worse and there's even less help for Flacco. I don't understand how a run stuffing DT could take precedence over one of the best pass blocking OT's in the league, especially when you have good, young and cheap depth at DT and little depth at all on the OL.
