I'd like to try and get Derek Carr

4everSaint · 02-07-2021, 03:55 PM

His Contract is friendly. He has a strong arm. He is pretty mobile. He will only be 30 in March. I think he would really thrive in our system. The more I'm sitting here thinking about it the more I'm really liking it.

There are rumors The Texans are wanting to trade Carr for Watson and some picks. Raiders fans don't think the Texans will ship Watson to an AFC team.

Only problem for us is we have nothing to really offer in picks.

At least one QB is going to lose this simulated game of musical chairs. That's when we might want to pounce and pick them up at their cheapest. This morning I was thinking if the Bears do away with Trubisky he could possibly be had for basically nothing. Though Carr I'd definitely want over Trubisky.

I’d rather Winston than them 2 clowns, that’s just me.

I'd take a watermelon with a hat on before Winston. That guy is dumb. And a complete dork.

It’s going to be Winston. If he keeps us in contention I’m all for it and will welcome him as a Saint.

It's been reported that the Raiders would want 2 firsts for D Carr in a trade. I like Carr as a player but not at that compensation.

That's just too much.

I don't think the Saints will be active players in this one.

iirc, Winston’s wonderlic score was a 27, Mr Brees? 28. That presupposes you place any value in that testing..., but that testing is something all NFL players are subjected to, and it places both Winston and Mr. Brees on pretty much the same level intellectually.

I’ve never thought Eli Manning was the sharpest tack in the tool shed..., but there he is at 39! Bottom line, if you feel Winston is lacking in any intellectual manner, then Mr. Brees is right there with him.

No way I would trade that much for Carr. They are trying to sell high based off his career year but I’d take my chances with Winston versus give up two 1st rd picks.

This year we will draft to fill a lot of needs and might even move back a time or two to get more draft picks. I don't see us trading up until we have put the roster back in tact to where we have been since '17.

Sell high and buy cheap does not include QB. "whoever" is left over out there will be a back up at most.
