The #Saints have had trade conversations about potentially dealing DT Malcom Brown, sources say. In the third year of a 3-year, $15M contract, a trade or release would save NO about $5M against the cap – and obviously they have a lot of work to do to get under the cap.

While speculation on Russell Wilson has been all the rage in New Orleans, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports one name the Saints have discussed moving: nose tackle Malcom Brown. Entering the final year of his contract with $5 million in savings should he be cut or traded, it makes sense for New Orleans to explore all opportunities.
