Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

The Saints have an interest in Marcus Mariota, if you believe several reports out there.

The New York Jets seem to be in a win-now mode with their recent signings of 30-year-old plus players like Darrelle Revis, Antonio Cromartie and Brandon Marshall. So the Jets could be in the market for a proven veteran quarterback like say the San Diego Chargers Philip Rivers or the Saints Drew Brees, New York Daily News columnist Gary Myers says.

There has been no credible evidence the Saints are shopping Brees, who recently turned 36. But the remake of the Saints roster, the belief Brees is on the decline and the fact that Brees is about to be due cap unfriendly payments of $18.75 million this year and $19.75 has many speculating the Saints could have to move their quarterback sooner or later.

There is a belief the Saints are interesting in moving up in next month's NFL Draft to take Mariota. They would have to combine their two first round picks (13 and 31) or add in some other assets to move up to where Mariota would go.

As the generally accepted second-best quarterback in this draft class, Mariota will likely go between the No.2 and No.6 overall picks. The Jets own the sixth pick in the first round. But the safest bet to land Mariota, if he is indeed the intended target of the Saints, is No.2 where Tennessee is drafting.

The Jets seem unlikely for that reason and the fact that Rivers, who replaced Brees in San Diego, Rivers is a better gamble because of his age and the potential to stay in New York longer, according to this ESPN.com article by Rich Cimini.

If the Saints trade Brees I will be pissed off to the heights of pisstivity!

Re: Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

One report about "what if" the Saints were to trade Brees went like wild-fire... :rolleyes:

Re: Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

I don't know that I've ever wanted a season to start sooner. I'm so tired of this "Brees is on the block" bs. Its not happening people.

The thought of that and moving up to take a QB in this draft is ridiculous.

Re: Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

If Bree's was on the block then somehow we picked up Aaron Rodgers cause that's the only compensation worthy for losing a HOF

Re: Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

if he is traded all i can say it better not be for any of the top 2 QB in this draft!

trade pick and trade again stock piling picks for 2016 better be the plan if there is one

Conner Cook is better than either of these two options in 2015.

Winston is not all he is hyped up to be. nah he will not be able to recover from the bone head mistakes he made in college in the NFL. I see JaMarcus Russell and Aaron Brooks all rolled into one here. talent all day long. an attitude that thinks he is gods gift to the world. no matter what his agent gets him do pre draft he is going to screw up off the feild. to arrogant not too.

Mariota? he is not ready. the guy needs two years min just to get use to the pro system at the NFL level and still i have my doubts. he is not a Russell Wilson type coming out of college. he is what Johnny football was hyped up to be. even then i have my doubts at the pro level. 3 to 5 years down the road i may have wished we made the move. but without veteran leadership that knows SP system to help him out? i say pass

Cook? here is the next Andrew Luck

Drugs are bad. Lay off the crack people. Man these reporters have wrecked their brains.

Re: Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

Agree completely about both.

Re: Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

Why even read this? If Drew was a cancer like Farve I could understand. There is a god chance he may fall to us without any trading. If he is there at 13 then fine. But there is no way SP trades up to get someone that will not be ready until 2018

Re: Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

Phillip Rivers to Tennessee isn't BS, though...

Re: Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

Sensationalism at its best. Put it out there and watch the panic unsue.
NOT happening, not this year.

Re: Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

I am ok trading Brees away but we should get something!!!

His cap hit is a monster... he deserves it but we aren't going to have him very long anyways... he won't be able to play to the level we are going to need him to play. 1 - 2 more years? If we can replace him with a franchise QB I say do it and we'd have more years without worrying so much about the QB position.

Re: Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

Fits right in with the "Front Office" not having a plan. I think they are all watching "Major League" today to get ideas. I wonder who our "Wild Thing" will be?

Re: Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

Whilst it won't happen this year, Drew's last year of his contract is next year I believe.

It's going to be tough when we decide to move on.

Re: Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

Mariota'd fit right in with many of our other draft choices. Not sure the J-E-T-S could really afford Drew though.

Look at us, baby... up all night
Tearing our love apart
Aren't we the same Who Dats
Who lived through years in the dark?

Every time I remember Stabler | Walsh | Hebert | Wilson | Everett | Shuler | Billy Joes | Wuerffel | Broo-ooks,
Something makes me turn around and puke...
.. and I can tell you why!

Re: Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

I think Drew can play at a high level for at least 3 more years. Protect him by building a good, young O-line. Draft a high potential QB in the 3rd like Petty and let him learn from Drew for 3 years. Drew should retire a Saint, the last thing I want to see is him wearing another jersey on Sunday.

We can be like the Patriots or Packers and groom QBs (Brady, Rodgers), or we can be like Tampa and the Jets missing on draft picks left and right. Trading up has not worked out well for us and I really hope we don't do it this year, particularly for a QB.

Re: Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

What if Oakland drafts Mariota and we give a 4th round pick for Derek Carr?

Re: Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

"Anybody who thinks we're trading Drew Brees, that's just not true," Loomis said before the start of the NFL owners meetings in Phoenix.

Loomis also said the Saints' salary cap struggles have been overstated.

"We're not in cap jail," Loomis said. "That's a myth since it's always a year to year deal."

Re: Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

Good grief you can tell its the offseason and these hacks are force to write something or loose their jobs. Rivers and Brees are going nowhere, Brees will retire a Saints and Rivers will get Franchise Tagged next season and then work out a long term deal in SD or LA

Re: Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

hahaha, so true!

Thank goodness an article negating all the BS out there.

Re: Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

I personally like Petty.

Re: Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

Bogus, bogus, bogus! These QBs are staying with their respective teams.

Re: Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

Drew is a Saint, till he decide he doesn't want to be one anymore.

Re: Either Drew Brees or Philip Rivers could be a good trade fit for the New York Jets, New York Daily News says
 

Funny to look back at this!
