Re: If Brees was traded
If we were to trade Drew I would expect no less than 5 first round picks in return. I have faith that Payton will turn Griffin into a good QB. I think we'd be OK....eventually.

Re: If Brees was traded
I dont buy into the whole "under the wing" cr4p science.
Starting QBs are game planning, no time for a lot of tutelage. Watching an elite QB play gives nothing to a rookie. How many non NFL QBs have watched hours and hours of Brees, Manning, Brady play and stink it up every Sunday? |

Re: If Brees was traded
Don't we already have a QB we're sitting to mentor under Brees, that was acquired this very year? We even cut a player to prevent him from getting poached, why would we now go for a first round player?

They are running opposing offenses against our defense so that our Defense has something to practice against weekly. They are on the side lines throwing to non-starting receivers while Drew works with the starters... If your theory is correct then you need to state examples. Rodgers looks nothing like Favre, Brady does not resemble Drew Bledsoe. Who is Jim Sorgi? Yep.. You don't know either. He was BU QB behind Payton Manning for 4-5 years, and in 2010 he was only good enough to make the Giants practice squad. Where is Curtis Painter after sitting under Payton Manning? How many good NFL QBs can you list that have sat under Tom Brady? Sorry brother, it sounds good in theory but it just doesn't work out that way. Your great QBs come into the league ready to play, they usually beat out the starter to take the job or jump right into the fire. |

Re: If Brees was traded
Trade Drew Brees? Yikes!
As far as Payton leaving someday...it is ironic that the Saints just put a big ol' nail in Garrett's coffin. It is my opinion that we all better hope that the Boys do a lot better from here on out. Off track, but I gotta know. Danno...you still think Morstead wasn't worth that or those picks we gave up. Just curious. |

Re: If Brees was traded
Elite QB's are rare and difficult to find. Too many teams have struggled for years b/c they don't have a very good QB much less an Elite one. We have an Elite QB and he is one of the hardest working players in the NFL, spending countless hours with receivers after practice to work on routes and timing etc. Its not Drew's fault that Nick Toon can't catch a cold.
