What should the Saints’ plan be to upgrade at QB?

Wentz could be a good addition

We’re not finding the next Brees amongst these kicked to curb QB’s.
If we’re thinking about doing that, I’d rather we roll with Jameis and select Hooker in the 2nd and roll with that plan.

Bingo.

We need to face the fact that we may never find the next Drew Brees. Those transcendent QB's are extremely rare.

I'd rather bring Teddy B back if the DCarr signs elsewhere. I wouldn't sign a middle-of-the-pack QB to 35M but that's just me.

Here is the list of available FA QBs for 2023.

Carr, Wentz, Mariota, Mayfield, Darnold, Garoppolo, DJones, Rudolph, etc.

Full list

If those were the cards available and I was playing poker then I would fold. None of these names are exciting enough for me. I want a leader on the field again.

That's my point. No one is worth bringing in for 35 million per. We can be average with what we have already. Let's draft a QB or two and see what we can do there.

Long term, this is the only solution at QB.

The draft. Ask KC or Philly.

In my mind it's
A. Carr for anything under $35MM/yr + Dalton + draft a Rookie in round 2-3
or
B. Dalton + Draft a Rookie you like as early as you want
or
C. Dalton + Get aggressive for a Rookie in the draft
