Anderson as Brees backup?

Anderson (Unlike Delhomme) showed via his exiting comments from Cleveland that he is Classless and arrogant... Not the kid of guy we need

I would have been pretty classless if I got jerked around like Anderson did in Cleveland also. He has shown the he has tremendous ability throwing the ball, unfortunately that ability is to throw the ball to the other team as well. I think if he learned from Drew and Sean he could make a great back up and I would rather have him than Delhomme. I don't think it is realistic for him to think he would be a starter anywhere that I can think of, but perhaps he is delusional.

disagree

the low class fans booed him when he got hurt and called for Quinn with every incompletion. What's he supposed to do, pull a Jake and say he loves the organization and fans that never supported him?

There are other potential backups out there that haven't averaged 2 INTS a game over the last season and a half. Why not one of them. Delhomme sucks.

If we're going to bring somebody in, that person needs to have an upside going forward.

Do we really want a guy who, #1. Hates the Saints, and has made it very apparent, and #2. Promised his undying loyalty to one of our division rivals.? I think not. Let him go somewhere else. He HAD his chance to start for the Saints, and he got beat out by Brooks. Put all the blame you want on Haslett, but MAYBE, just MAYBE, he blew it his damn self.

I remember Jake's inconsistency, more than I remember his upsides. He tore the Cowboys up in the Christmas game, back in 99, and then sucked it big time the following week. I have no faith in this guy, at all, or anyway.

Anderson isn't going to be a back up guys. Too many teams needing potential starters, i.e. Arizona, Seattle, Rams, Raiders, hell even Tampa Bay might be interested in pushing their second year rook, for playing time.

Agreed and thanks ya'll for posting some facts and not comfort, feel-good thoughts about JD being from LA.

Best thing and hardest thing is for Saints scounts to find that young, cheap, QB with potential that they can mold .
