According to Florio they had already agreed on compensation when there would have been no year off.I would love to have Sean Payton here, but that’s not happening. The guy is a legend and the Saints aren’t going to let him walk away for cheap, if he decides to return and their next HC turns out to be good.
Also in a year when Dallas had no first in the upcoming draft.
That proves nothing but given that, plus the frugality of the kid, do you really think it was anything beyond a 2nd as compensation?
After he sits out a year and NO hires another coach, part of their implied recourse would be to fire that guy and bring back Payton, which would be a bad look and has never happened anywhere.
I think he is in Dallas after this year for a 3rd round pick and everyone wins.
