That is a really good question. I think that since we don't have a good enough draft pick to draft a quarterback that this might be our best option. There's something to be said for a fresh start somewhere else. Look at Drew. However, we don't have that same type of coaching now.

Geno Smith (32 years old)
Baker Mayfield (27 years old)
Sam Darnold (25 years old)
Jimmy Garoppolo (31 years old)
Daniel Jones (25 years old)
Tyler Huntley (25 years old)
Gardner Minshew (26 years old)

These two for me.

Both are relatively young, probably won't break the bank and some upside.

Responding to rez and Major’s upcoming FA QB posts, I Just checked out Gardner’s stats:

I’m impressed. Better than a 3:1 career TD to Int ratio, most of that playing with a dysfunctional Jacksonville franchise. I’d definitely kick the tires on him.

Lamar if you can sign him or if you'd want him. Out of that group I think Id take my chances with Lamar IMO.

This QB draft will be pretty deep. Maybe if things shake out right Hooker or DTR or another desirable QB will slip into 2nd or 3rd round while Bryce Young and the flavor of the month choices go at the top of the draft.

I was thinking this too. Jalen Hurts slipped to pick 53.

Just watched the highlights, I'm really glad I didnt stay up (UK time) for that game.

As usual, team looks flat, uninspired and really poorly coached.

The throws to the flat by Jackson were an automatic 8+ yards because the defenders were playing so far off. That's not even counting the yardage after the inevitable missed tackle or 3.

DA and Loomis let a ton of defensive talent walk and it shows. This team is just poor all around.

I'm starting to think we need a full reboot, including some coaching staff members.

-By NFL standards, the Saints are soft. Soft in coaching and soft in effort. With the division lead at stake, they showed no fire or passion.
-As a 50 year Saints fan, my interest in watching this team is equally soft.
-I believe T. Hill could play safety better than those currently lining up there. And he absolutely should be the QB for the rest of the year.
