The only offensive position the Saints should draft next year is a quarterback. A tall, smart young QB who can make most, if not all the throws.

Not so he can come in and take Drew's spot...But so he can learn from Drew. The Saints can get more out of Drew Brees than just his on the field play. Drew is good in this scheme. He reads coverages pretty well, and gets rid of the ball quickly. Both of those are traits that a young QB could benefit from watching.

Phillip Rivers' time behind Brees' seem to be very beneficial. I understand that he was a top 5 pick, but it has been plenty of first round QBs taken that can barely make rosters (Tim Couch). Rivers was able to step right in and perform at a pretty good level, and lead a very talented team to a 14 win season.

Like I say, I'm not trying to replace Drew at all. But If there is a valuable QB in the 3rd or 4th round I think we should try and take em' and spend the rest of our draft picks on the DEFENSE (please).

Even though I do like Palco, I don't think his "Gun Slinger" style is compatible with the style of offense that we run here in the N.O. I watched and liked him at Pitt, and it seems like he favors the "vertical" style of offense better.

So...If we get a chance to use the teaching abilities of a Drew Brees...we should. I watched the Dallas Cowboys (who I really dislike) not draft a qb to replace Troy Aikman for years, dispite the public's out cry. And it took them ten years to find Romo. We need to be procative....so when Drew decides to step down or we need to replace him...we are not left hanging like so many other teams that loose good quaterbacks are.

Let's take advantage of our talent in more than just one way.

Draft a replacement, before we NEED to.

Real Talk...

The best conerback tandem in the league reside in the N.O.
