bring him on the cheap with the guarantee of competing for the start. heavy incentive pay. gotta be cheap tho.

if giving him starting money i would not be adverse to giving him the job for a season or two with a walter or frye in the wings. to give him say3-4mil, ab and his 6mil would have to be gone.

he is west coast experienced and shows some fire even if he is on the downside of his career.

If we could get him on the cheap, I agree with letting him compete for the job. Anything more than 2 mil and we have to trade AB and get someone young in the draft to groom. But 2 mil or less, let him try.

A cap move by a re-building team. He still has a couple years of production left.

Yes, if we could get him cheap I\'m all for it. I know he\'s not ashamed of being a running QB. ;)

Would we then be called The Thainths ;) ?

I don\'t know, but if I were Bentley, I sure wouldn\'t want to bend over the ball with Jeffy behind me.

rdox thats funny. but he does got a hot girlfriend. but i agree with all you guys above. bring him in on the cheap. i think he can still play. i even think he could possibly be a leader. i thought he was pretty good in san fran. cleaveland doesnt even count to me. the team was maybe the worse i have ever seen. you know thats a thread to start. can you guys name some teams from years past worse then this years browns. man im going to have to think. those guys were really bad. i think they had one game this year aginst maybe the bills where they had like less then 30 total yards. im not sure thats the team but they had a game like that this year. well if you guys have any interest at all name some teams. i\'d like to read and remember some really bad ones

Holy goodness is Garcia\'s girlfriend fine. He had his ex and his current get into a catfight over him... jeez I wish I was there to witness that. Why couldn\'t I be a 6 foot bald NFL quarterback?!?!?!?!?!??!?!

I do not want to see Jeff Garcia sign with the Saints. The guy seems to be very difficult to work with, and he whines about everything. I do not see him as a good fit for the Saints. Maybe he would sign a cheap contract, but my feeling is he would be a major issue in the locker room. I just do not see it working out.

you may be right but i would like to see him replace bouman

If this is the criteria for fitting in, he\'s probably a better fit than Bouman on this alone.

worst case scenario-he\'d push brooks to do better

... no QB who\'s brought to N.O. would be given the chance to compete for the starting spot... you and I know this... why bring in another possible malcontent?
.. save the cash, use it on a LB...

On the other hand, Bowman is a significant downgrade from either Brooks or Garcia.

Bring Garcia in if he can be had cheap, and he has the understanding that he\'d have to significantly outplay Brooks to get the job. Otherwise he needs to be a good backup.

If he can\'t work under those terms, then leave him alone.

Exactly. And yes Danno, we\'d be the Thainths... :)

I actually dislike Garcia somewhat, but he is at least a viable alternative as a backup - unlike Bouman - who I wanted to see get a chance, but whose play convinced me that he\'s just nowhere near deserving.

I don\'t see why he could not win the starting job from AB. Our system would suit his skills well. He is mobile and although he once aired a special of him carrying his poodle, or some similar type of dog, to the day spa for pampering, the man does show some grit on the field. Trade AB while he still has some value, give the team to JG and draft a mid round prospect to learn under him for a couple of years.

honestly, if the price is right, i say we do bring him in to, if not win the starting job, to push leon... leon has played the last couple of season like a man that knew no matter how bad he played that he was going to remain in the game and not get benched... i think having a proven qb like garcia can help the team in the aspect the leon will have to be a little bit more consistent if he wants to remain the starting qb.... and yes, his girlfriend is hot... by the way, i was the first one to say that about 2 wks ago when rumors started swirling about garcia being released....

I think that Garcia would be the perfect fit (as of right now) for our team. Whether it be as a back-up or starter. He is used to the \"west coast\" scheme and he could really test Brroks for the starting job. As far as Bledsoe being available...he is old....Garcia is only a 6 year vet so he holds more of a future if he would work out. I think it\'s a go! Why the heck not? Anything is better than Todd Bouman....I mean seriously...give me a break.

:whip: Let me be the first to beat the Dead Horse again.......
Delhome..... no errrr we already had a backup that I feel would have pushed Brooks this Pre season what was his name...... oh thats it J.T. O\'Sullivan,,,....... But the minute the fans start chanting his name our beloved coaches ship him out in order to stop a future controversy. So \"goldenboy\" errr \"Leon\" would not feel threatend, err so the Fans would not Have the ability to chant! \"We want Delhome\", errrrrr I mean O\'sullivan, but its just the same........ This is my opinion the coaches do not feel Brooks can flourish with competition and critisism, so I almost Feel with his sensitivity we should already be called the \"thainth\'s\"

pretty much every report out of new orleans agrees with that...in order for brooks to get better he needs to compete against someone. otherwise he will never get better.
