Brees has dislocated shoulder, could need surgery.

can be franchised and traded. can be traded prior to march when his contract expires.

You want to franchise Howard in order to trade him? I've been offline for a while, but I wasn't aware that we had locked up LeCharles for the future... don't you think the franchise tag would be better used there?

First of all Cheramie III why in the heck do we care about Drew hope he's ok but if Leinart is there then thats that pick we should take.

I don't believe we can franchise Howard, we have already franchised him the last two years. Brees is instant QB and AMAC would make a good student. Leinhart is going to take a couple of years, sorta like Palmer to get into the groove.

Good point but Leinart would still be a good QB.

Franchising Howard would be the dumbest move the Saints have ever made. His history of injury, sporadic play, and attitude this season drastically decreases his worth in the eyes of other teams. Don't waste a tag on Howard. Let him walk. Use the tag on Bentley.
