Re: Is age really the reason?

There is absolutely nothing wrong with Brees. Our offensive line hurts his performance and the fact that we dont have the targets we use to have does too. Our receivers were never great players but Brees made them look that way. The difference between then and now is that back in the SB days we had receivers who complimented each other very well. We had a receiver for every job who did that job very well. A field stretcher in Henderson, big Colston in his prime, Lance who was a good route runner and possetion guy. Payton played all those guys to their strenghts. We dont have that now.
If we get one very good/ elite receiver Drew can still play at a high level for two more years. He was accurate enough back in the day to mask the deficiancies of some of our receivers. As he ages he is going to lose a little accuracy but an elite receiver can compensate for that.

Extend him, draft a receiver in the first this year (for the love of god not a utility guy but a legit wide receiver), and depending on Grayson draft a future QB in the first of 2017 draft.

After receiver go guard and Oline then pass rusher and help up front. I think we finally have LB sewed up and our secondary believe it or not is a very talented bunch minus Browner.

There simply isnt a better option at QB in the immediete future.
