NFL precedents offer hints of what a trade for Sean Payton would cost Texans
In 15 seasons at the helm of the Saints, Sean Payton compiled a 152-89 record and nine postseason appearances, one of which ended with a Super Bowl championship.When I asked fans on Twitter how many draft picks they’d be willing to give up to hire former Saints coach Sean Payton, the answer varied from the 12th overall pick to “nothing the Saints would accept.”The Texans have requested to interview the 59-year-old veteran coach, who took the year off after the 2021 season.
The Saints hold the cards. And if history offers any indication as to what could happen, the price could be steep.After firing coach Tony Dungy in 2002, the Buccaneers traded two first-round draft picks, two second-round draft picks and $8 million in cash to the Raiders in exchange for Gruden, who had one year left on his contract. Those picks became the 21st and 53rd overall picks in 2002, the 32nd overall pick in 2003, and the 33rd overall in 2004.
During that same span, the Jets have been to the playoffs six times, with two trips to the AFC Championship Game.In 1999, Holmgren, then the Packers’ head coach, was offered an eight-year, $32 million deal to be the head coach, general manager and executive vice president of the Seahawks, giving him total control of football operations.
