Ten quarterbacks were selected past the third round in the draft and later went on to win Pro Bowls and even Super Bowls. While their draft positions may have been low, it didn't stop them from being motivated enough to accomplish rare feats in NFL history.

I hate Brady but he is a good example of a late round drafted QB succeeding in the NFL. They are out there. You've just got to have the eye for talent. Personally, I don't think Sean wants a rookie. He seems to like to elevate the play from experienced QB's with potential to grow like Drew....or even Teddy.

Well, my point is Payton hasn’t had to develop another QB because he has had Brees all this time. If he would have wasted a first or high 2nd round draft pick on a QB and not developed him then it would be a serious strike against him IMO. “Missing” on a Mid third round QB pick isn’t a big deal.

And yes, there have been the Bradys and Wilsons that have had success as third plus round picks. But the league is more full of guys like Mahomes, Allen, Rodgers, Brees, Ryan, Stafford, Watson, Murray, Jackson, Burrows, etc that are first rounders.

Everyone keeps ignoring SP's keen QB drafting ability. Palko, Canfield and Grayson

All the QB's he's had success with weren't drafted by him.

Well Ryan Griffin has as many rings as Drew Brees,

I was wrong on Palko being drafted but.....................

I say work a multi team trade for Watson. Trade everyone on the team and get some late draft picks for the following year. We will come in way under the cap and Watson can throw to himself, run, and play defense.
Edit: that’s probably a little unrealistic. We will probably need to trade some of those picks and move up to get a kicker just in case we are in a tight game and down by a field goal.

They’d need a long snapper too!

Jameis could snap and the kicker could drop kick.

I practice long snapping in my yard with my twin brother. I never played football but I've got a little speed and some accuracy on the snap. If Coach Payton reads this just send me a PM and we'll get together for tryouts and signing the league minimum contract.
