Triplett: Ryan Griffin could get extended look

Easily the most promising young QB we've had in the Payton era, in fact you probably have to go all the way back to Aaron Brooks to find the last time we had a young QB with real starter potential.

I doubt we are looking to trade him now, or at all. They burned a roster spot last year just to keep him from getting claimed off the practice squad.

He's not gonna wait around 5 or 6 more years to take over for Brees. He'll be a free-agent in 2017 so I could see us trading him in 2016. Might get a Matt Schaub type deal for him.

Yeah, I hope we can trade him and get something for him. Otherwise, it'll be Chase Daniel all over again.
One thing's for sure. We're gonna hang onto him as long as we can, and pray he never has to play in anything but preseason games.
