Hells yeah I would, too!

Good player and a solid guy. Him backing Drew for a season would be worth the money for the solid safety net he proved to be.

Do I think we'll get him? No.

After last season's success, he's not going to settle for anything less than a starting job, with starter money. My gut tells me that he will end up in Houston.

Agreed. He'll get decent money, even as a backup/mentor. He will definitely cost someone a job.

BTW- Why is everyone so down on Martin? Sure he's no Kerry Collins-Heath Shuler-Aaron Brooks, but do we really need an upgrade here?

I don't see how you can spend the money that Garcia is going to be asking when you have a passable back-up already and some serious needs on D and at TE.

There are definitely some more attractive FAs out there.

while the probowl immediately pops into my mind, i'd much rather have garcia who's proven time and time again......period......smitty

by this i mean, a non ending season injury, but none the less, 4-8 weeks out, and just about out of the playoffs unless you have someone who can step in and win.....
would you rather have a proven qb or.................smitty

After the great season Garcia just had I think he'll want a large package deal, money and a chance at being the starter..
I would love to have him come to N.O though, he'd make one hell of a backup to Brees..
IMO it's a long shot in signing him as a Saint..

Garcia has signed with Tampa Bay.
