The Saints are trying to acquire Tyrann Matthieu. What do you think?

If they can get him, they'll have a SICK good defense. You just think they had Tom Brady's number the past couple years, they'll be shutting out Tom Brady again if they can make this work.

I think he's out of his prime and isn't as good as he was the first couple years he was with the chiefs.

He made second team All Pro last season... out of his prime?

[UniquelyBasic]

@spartan55 he's still a good safety but I saw many times him being out of position and throwing his hands up when the other team scored.

[spartan55]

He might have been trying to cover another DB busted coverage. Tough to say without seeing the film. All-Pro is legit though, it's not like making the Pro Bowl. I was mistaken, he made first team All Pro in 2020.
He may have slowed some, but you could do much worse than him at safety.

@spartan55 I just saw on the ticker on ESPN that they have made a deal. They didn't say how much he's going to get paid yet, but they've signed him.

Awesome. This is going to be some lights out defense now.

[spartan55]

I'm going to guess about 20 million for 2 years with 12 guaranteed. Congrats, I'm an Eagles fan and I wanted to sign him too!

[Wade12345]

@spartan55 They just said 33 million for 3 years with 18 guaranteed. Wow. That's a lot.

[spartan55]

I agree. It might be structured as essentially a two year deal. I'm surprised at the three years, the money is about what I thought, @$10mil per. Go Honey Badger!
