He certainly has more starter experience in the league than anyone behind Brees. Could be good for him to get a change of scenery and sit behind Brees.

I can't see it Diz. There is Brees, Luke & Grayson ....just can't justify the Saints FO adding another QB to the roster.

The Browns, Broncos or even the Cows (Romo is fragile and Kellen is not the answer as a backup) would be more realistic landing spots for Nick Foles.

If Grayson's not the goods, I get Foles under contract right now...

Has he passed through waivers yet?

Yeah thats a good point, we don't have the need that teams especially like the cowboys have!

no waivers- he's a FA and can pick his spot

Please bring him, kick the tires, check what's under the hood.

He won't play for peanuts, and that's pretty much all that the Saints have left at the moment.

Oddly enough he did go to the same high school as Brees (Westlake in Austin, TX.)

I would be ok with it but I dont think we can afford it and I already think we have the best backup QB in the league on our roster. Luke did not miss a beat when he was in last year against a very good Carolina defense. He is hugely underrated.

Think Drew's willing to restructure so's we could afford him?

There is nowhere to restructure. Brees is on the last year of his contract. Any work that can be done would be essentially negotiating a new contract.

Take a read of my 5 or 6 previous posts on the subject if you are interested in understanding Brees' contract situation.

Nope. Seen enough posts about restructuring that I take them all at face value.

He's better than McNown and Grayson. But, he probably wants too much money and could win a starting job elsewhere.
