Locked On Saints - Daily Podcast On The New Orleans Saints

Midweek Fundamentals kicks off the show with a brief explanation of how restructuring contracts work and the use of voidable years on contract. Two very common practices for the New Orleans Saints explained with quarters! Also, why Taysom Hill isn't really on a four-year $140M contract.

Here's why the Saints should consider a trade for New England Patriots WR N'Keal Harry. They don't need him to be a number one, their system is wide receiver friendly, and there's very little risk. Breaking down why all of these things are true and should push the Saints to at least inquiring for the former first round receiver.

Mike D'Abate of Locked On Patriots and Patriots Maven joins to talk about what's led to Harry and his agent requesting a trade, whether or not the Saints' system could better utilize him, and what it would cost to get the receiver in a trade.
