Drew Brees, Bengals?!?

MatthewT · 12-15-2015, 06:50 AM

Just for kicks lets say there is no such thing as trading deadlines, salary caps, etc. With a team like the Bengals having the kind of season they are having, and all of a sudden in dire need for a top QB, that would probably warrant at least 2016 draft picks 1, 2, 3, and probably another 1st in 2017.

Ding-Ding-Ding!!!

Matthew understands the 'context' of the post...

Halo, we may need to see about getting Tampax as a sponsor...

Sean? For the Bengals - nothing.
Sean should continue to put his own franchise in order.

Why don't we trade you to the Bengals for draft picks.

Let me guess, if we were Packers fans you'd stalk Brees with a block of cheese for a hat screaming "discount double-check"?!?

You would also have dead money on the salary cap which doesn't help.
Brees' contract has to be extended for any cap help.

jnormand · 12-15-2015, 10:15 AM

Why would anyone want to trade him? He's a great QB.

Don't forget the most important clause in the "trade."

All the letters that spell New Orleans Saints have to be removed from the alphabet!

Brees is a flop in Cincy and is cut, reclaimed by the Saints who then go undefeated for the next 25 years and cause the collapse of the NFL. Roger of course will have to come crawling to the Saints for a job!! Brees retires at 65 with all the records!!

A rare Hurricane ironically named "Brees" forms in the Great Lakes and "Finishes the job the fire started" in Chicago!!
