Terrible idea, absolutely terrible.

Maybe...
Contract wise he has 4 more years left. Aaron Rodgers sat behind Favre for 3 or 4 years and its done him nothing but good.

At that time Favre's play was showing signs of age and decline. Brees' play isn't.

Rodgers sat for 3 years, but was ready much earlier than that.

One year behind Brees should do it. So I can't see drafting his back-up for 3 or 4 more years.

College QB's are now almost NFL redy right out of the gate. Most take 2 years max.

Turrible idea.

Brees reconstructed arm has shown signs of "tenderness" from time to time.
