Yeah, Jimmy Garoppolo. He's good, but he'll be a round two pick. I don't see any way we draft a QB this year, especially one as high as the second round.

I remember hearing that too Dude, but I can't remember if it was actually Payton that said it or a reporter/insider speculating that that was the case.

And I think it was said, or claimed to have been said, when he signed his 5 year extension.

I'm starting to hate those bloggers that phrase speculation as fact. One year later you remember the topic, but forget that it was pure speculation and not fact.

I'm not advocating anything but you know Payton has been watching this kid.

Cam Newton is up for his first big payday next seasom

He might actually want to throw to some receivers

Re: Saints next QB discussion

We trade away all of the next ten year's worth of draft picks for Manziel and Bortles thus relieving every Saints forum anything to talk about between February and July for the next decade.

Re: Saints next QB discussion

Around here the 'experts' are saying Aaron Murray is in the Brees mold and could go mid round.

I personally would like to see a couple of options for the future, but it's difficult to keep a 3rd QB. (this should be addressed in the next CBA)

That would be fourth QB...

Correct me if I'm wrong but drafted QB's = Sean Canfield.

Re: Saints next QB discussion

Green Bay drafted Aaron Rodgers in the first round with the 24th pick and sat him behind Brett Favre for three (3) seasons...

San Francisco traded a second and fourth round pick for Steve Young To Tampa (who drafted Vinny Testeverde) and sat him for nearly four seasons before dumping Montana to start Young...

So saying a guy should start within one year seems foolhardy; if you've got a quality guy who can sit and develop behind a quality NFL starter that you're winning with, then why not do it?!?

Two examples over the last 20 years, and both were ready by their second season.
Not good examples at all
