Carr have met with multiple teams. It’s going to come down to two teams, Saints and Panthers. Probably Saints.

Carr is not worth the asking price of $35 million per year.

It’s very much like Carr to pick the worst division. That’s his comfort. Average is not going to take more challenging tasks.

If the Jets landed Rodgers, if he wants to be traded that is, it’s going to be interesting. They will definitely improve instantly.

There’s still chances for the Raiders to be in play for Rodgers. I’m okay either way.

I think Carr won that negotiation...

Man, $100 million guarantee!

Quote
Winners and losers of QB Derek Carr's decision to sign with New Orleans Saints

With a little more than one week left to go before free agency officially opens, one of the biggest names available has already settled on his destination.

Quarterback Derek Carr agreed Monday to sign with the New Orleans Saints on a four-year contract, which multiple outlets reported was worth $150 million with $100 million in guarantees.

The move provides some closure for both Carr, who also met with the New York Jets and Carolina Panthers in the weeks after he was released by the Las Vegas Raiders on Feb. 14, as well as the Saints, who needed some resolution at quarterback with Andy Dalton set to become a free agent.

...Winners

Saints

Coming off their first losing season since 2016 and with their No. 10 overall draft pick in the hands of the Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans is the clear short-term beneficiary of Carr's ugly split the Raiders. Steady veteran quarterbacks don't hit the market that often, and Carr can immediately boost an offense that ranked 22nd in total points last season with 19.4 per game. Even if this isn't a world-shifting addition, the Saints now stand out as having easily the best quarterback situation in an eminently winnable division. Given the overall state of the NFC, New Orleans can plant itself squarely in the conference's second tier of contenders. And the move didn't put the franchise in too much of an additional financial bind. ProFootballTal k reports the guarantee structure indicates a separation without a massive hit would be possible as early as 2025. Not bad for a franchise that not long ago looked to be stuck in passer purgatory.

Derek Carr

With his Raiders tenure coming to an abrupt and unceremonious end after a down year, Carr was left in a somewhat odd spot as he searched for a landing place before the start of free agency. Still, after refusing to waive his no-trade clause prior to his release, Carr had time to suss out his market and find a team that truly wanted him as its starter. He'll benefit from the friendly confines of a domed stadium and have better defensive backing than the Raiders could provide last season – or really any of his career, as the unit never finished better than 20th in points allowed during Carr's run. Given the harmony Carr can expect from head coach Dennis Allen after his year of discord with McDaniels, moving from Silver and Black to black and gold sure looks like an upgrade.

Dennis Allen

Taking on the 2022 edition of the Saints looked to be an imposing task for whoever served as Sean Payton's successor, as an inauspicious quarterback setup was one of several problems areas. Still, Allen tripped up the team last season with costly game management errors and general disorganizatio n. After receiving a reprieve heading into the 2023 season, he should feel more comfortable with Carr – a veteran whom he knows and helped decide to draft when he was coach of the Raiders until he was fired early in the 2014 season. Of course, the hot seat will warm right back up if the Saints repeat some of their stumbles.

Don't go sleeping on them eagles.  They are still a scary team and a playoff team at it.  This year, they will get 2 first rounder so they will add some linemen to help out their QB Jalen. 

I'm getting 4 wild card tickets (caro, fader, tb, jets) and an eagle ticket plus I'm sticking with my bills again.  6 tickets total.

Lamar Jackson wants to play for Patriots but Colts is also pursuing him.

Packers is being complicated in letting Rodgers go.

NFL has voted to allow players to wear number zero. So, guess we will be seeing some players changing numbers again.
