Saints thinking about life after Drew Brees

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Drew will be our QB until he can't play... I think he has a good 5 years left, but he needs to get a team friendly deal done like Brady did if he wants to win more SBs....

We need to first build the future of that O-Line and trade a 6th for a guy like Matt Barkley.

Re: Saints thinking about life after Drew Brees

Brees will retire a Saint. This coming year he will redue his contract to free up some space and add a year or two to the end. I do see the Saints drafting a qb or maybe trading for a Redskins qb, Cousins not RGIII. They could grab him for a 4th that would be a steal. The guy is a stud and would learn a lot under Brees. He has a bright future with the right coaching.

Re: Saints thinking about life after Drew Brees

wow I want one person to come up with a QB that can do what Drew does?

Now find me a team that wants to part with them. It is not going to happen.

there is no Andrew Luck out on the Horizon in college football.

I can think of a million reasons to stand pat and start the chest game and reload around Drew till his final day.

here i was not taking this talk serious.

This is just more journalistic crap like most ever thing that comes out.

Are the Saints looking ahead? they better be planning things out and not making knee jerk decisions as the roll along. come on this is a multi million dollar business. of course they are.

It is no big deal!

Its SOP!

RELAX!

do not let the media lead you down the road of stupidity

Rob Ryan doesn't pick our players during the draft.

Re: Saints thinking about life after Drew Brees

So you are saying players are picked and Rob is told to make it work? come on now.

If so that would explain a lot. This is why the players do not fit his system and he has no say so in how to go about building the defense he wants to install here. In other words he has no say so in the bricks he is using.

Then i am totally wrong about Rob and I feel sorry for him.

sorry i can not buy into that one bit.

he makes his case in each round for the players he wants from all the scouting reports and scout meetings ahead of time.

what players he gets from his big board and when they are picked is out of his hands but the list is his non the less

That's exactly how it works; I'm sure Rob has a little input but ultimately it's a Payton/Loomis decision...

Re: Saints thinking about life after Drew Brees

I very much doubt Rob asked for Fortt and Powell.

Re: Saints thinking about life after Drew Brees

Payton/Loomis yes have the final say so i agree.

Loomis is a pencil pusher that is well known.

SP evaluates the offense talent being the OC

Rob has list and his input as DC

If the pick goes offense or defense on the big board is out of robs hands.

BUT the list of defensive players and where they fall on the big board is all ROB. he fights for placement and states his case for the player he wants as the draft goes on.

sorry no way are the saints operating totally different than every other team in the NFL

TEAMS do not pick players and tell coordinators to make it work.

Fortt and Powell are Robs boys

SP decides on the final pick and Mickey rubber stamps it.

Right, and why do they pay scouts again for? If it's up to the coordinators only why does every team have scouting departments?
