Trent Green to visit Saints

Let me say...

No No No.

Trent Green five years ago yes, now no. He's hesitant in the pocket and his decision skills are questionable at best. This is a guy we should pass on.

Would you really rather have Jamie Martin in there, over Green? Personally, I think Martin is awful. I mean really awful. So I'd be happier with Green in there -- by a long shot.

I would love it. We have a big lead into the 4th and Trent comes in to finish it off. sweet! Drew would add another 3 years to his career.

Green is a classy guy too. He has great vision. I wouldn't want him as a starter, but he is a very capable backup. This is a good move if the money is right.

We would have to make sure the defense is solid enough for Brees to get us this kind of lead to allow that to happen. Until then, Brees will still be attempting 40-50+ passes a game. I like the way you think, though.

would rather give a young guy a shot. Martin sucks, cut him, but Trent would literally Die after bouncing his head off the dome floor. Lets see what Palko can do as #2.

i agree that Martin is a joke and Trent is a better QB than him. It would be a big risk however if Brees went down and he took over. He's one hit away from pisssing his pants and then what. We are stuck with our 3rd string.

I'm for Green as backup. I think he'd help be a good mentor to prepare Palko for the lock as the #2. I too would have more faith in a rattled Green than Jamie Martin at all.

What you are really looking for is a guy who lpays when Drew Brees can't.
A guy like Billy Volek...
In 2004, as a replacement...
averaged 380 yards over 4 games...

We need a guy who can fling it all over the field...
That's the way we play
