Who is the best quarterback that you think will be available in the 2016 NFL Draft?

Im honestly not sure but I think we may draft a QB with our first round pick if Brees gets cut/traded for whatever reason

I think it's a bad year for QB's in the draft and I wouldn't touch a single one of them within the first 3 rounds. On face value I would take Boykin, but again it would certainly not be early. I don't think it matters anyway. Brees is gonna be here next year for sure and possibly another year or two after. Too many obvious needs on this team to be worrying about life after Brees. Especially when you just drafted a guy with a day 2 pick. What they need to be worried about is rebuilding the team around Drew ASAP so we can make another run or two at a super bowl. If Peyton Manning's half crippled ass can keep leading a team to the playoffs, I have all the faith in the world that Drew can do the same.

Payton Manning has a D behind him, Brees don't.

Tell that to Indy and KC who exposed that. Manning was beating Baltimore, KC, Detroit, Minneota, Oakland, Cleveland, GB[with a banged up offense] none of those teams are elite either. KC got them the second time though.

And our defense is nowhere close to being anything like Denver. We were not this in 09, and it's honestly asking too much for a defense we haven't has in a long time.

And you basically saying you want the saints to contend when Brees is on the decline is atrocious. Do you want Brees to lose in the playoffs like Brett Favre did when he was on his last legs?

I wouldnt see any other option if Brees is gone. You have to draft one then. extend Brees' contract and get a star receiver in the first. 2017 draft class should be better. Call me crazy but I really like Chad Kelly. Reminds me of Aaron Rodgers.

Well I suppose we could use Luke for a year or two while Grayson develops. Hell even Matt Flynn could be good in the right offense. He was money when Rodgers went down a couple years back. Dont really think he is someone you want to make your franchise guy

Agree. I'm not knocking Flynn, but at best, he's a backup QB ... guy gets more mileage outta' one good performance vs the Lions (480yds/6TD's) than anyone I've ever seen,
