Honeybadger is happy. I knew we weren't going after him after our Draft that is for sure. We hedged our bets with Bates by 
adding Dax and Tycen.

But it is weird how some teams with without any cap space can add expensive players like this.

Saints had -$70m in cap space, cut nobody, signed Winston to 2yr/$28m, signed Marcus Maye to 3yr/$28.5m, signed Honey Badger to 3yr/$33m, and signed a bunch of guys to $1-3m deals.... and somehow still have $19m (minus whatever Mathieu's cap hit is) in cap space this year.
