TRADE BREES

voodooido · 08-29-2016, 01:18 PM

I could see Brees traded but only after the season. I could see them place the franchise tag on him for 43 million and trade him to the 49ers or Cleveland for a draft pick or 2. He would probably sign a 3 year deal with another team paying him 25 million a year. We get a rd 2 and rd 3 next year. No way we should let him walk with nothing. Make him sign with us or trade him to the worst team in the league.

When is the next time we are going to have a great QB? It took us 40 years to get Brees. Once he's gone there will be 3-4 years of trial and error Qbs before we will have time to really evaluate their potential. If it doesn't work by that time you will have a host of other players to pay.

This organizaton did not start caring until Benson took over. As long as SP is here he will look for the next answer at qb. Remember our history was also throwing away talent. We threw away Delhomme, Ricky Williams, Bobby Hebert. The history is the past. The organization made stupid mistakes because the technology for offenses was not available then. That is not our team now.

Also, the saints had a better record in their non-playoff years under Haslett outside of one season than the saints non-playoff years outside of one season. 9-7, 8-8, 8-8>7-9, 8-8, 7-9, 7-9, 7-9.

Also his name is Brees not Bree plural or whatever.

I think Sean is a great coach if he wanted to buy some time keeping his job... I could respect him more by cleaning house now or a year or two ago. We are going to have to clean house including getting rid of him if he doesn't do it himself.

Every so often you need to clean house and start fresh. Unless you are the Patriots and they make the playoffs every year which is more that I can say about us lately.

The Patriots make the playoffs every year because the rest of the division is a dumpster fire; same as the 49ers in the 80s with the Saints, Rams and failclowns.

Why now that the defense is at least showing some signs of life, would you want to get rid of the one player that is making the Saints relevant?

Do the Saints have issues that need be and should have already been addressed? Absolutely!

So do 31 other teams, but I doubt you will find many posts from fans calling for the team to clean house!

Brees is not the reason the Saints are in cap hell, or the defense has sucked for several years!

We can win it all this year with Brees.
We can't without him.
He's got 2 or 3 good years left.
Stop, please just stop.

Classic throwing the baby out with the bath water mentality!

If we traded Brees I'd put my montly wage on us getting the first pick in 2017 draft.

Would be an idiotic decision, no way is Grayson ready and McCown is serviceable at best.

The part about throwing the season away... it is sort of the point.

This team is floundering in mediocrity. A sinking ship if you will. The one way to right the ship is jettison what we have and rebuild. It is going to happen sooner or later why not stop wasting out time with the same 8-8 and 7-9 if we are lucky this season. Why not cut bait and start rebuilding. I know it is to late in the off season now but there are some opportunities out there to begin.

I have the feeling that won't even happen this off season coming up.

I am just wondering why the rebuilding hasn't begun yet!

??

The rebuilding begun last year on defense. Hired a competent DC in Dennis Allen. How about the rookies playing in 2015? On top of that, we've added new corners, drafted NT (our 1st pick in this years draft) & added two new safeties (Bell & Erik) this year. I'd say defense is already in rebuild mode.

As far as cutting bait, didn't we get rid of Rob & #39?
