If the Pats are bullish on Jimmy G, it'll take a big chip like Terron Armstead, which Belichik and Brady would jump, to make that deal happen...

Ask the Chiefs how it worked out going after the guy who played well when Brady was out.

"Theoretically, they may like Garoppolo better than anyone in what’s expected to be a mediocre QB......."

Two names: Matt Cassel and Brian Hoyer. Buyer Beware.

Neither of which are coached by Sean Payton...

I seeem to recall a "buyer beware" tag placed on a certain young San Diego QB.

Um that "buyer beware" was due to a badly torn labrum, not performance. The Chargers had two winning seasons in 2004 and 2005 and went 12-4 and won the AFC West with Brees in 2004. Brees was a top 10 NFL QB in 2005 with 3500+ yards and 24 TDs.

Brees in 2005 and Garoppolo now are like apples and gorillas.

Sorry but I doubt Payton would've made stars out of those other QBs either. Look at all the QBs we've drafted and unloaded already. Payton was lucky to get Brees. It was Brees that had the determination to come back and be the best that he can be. Payton didnt instill that in him.

I would wait, the draft pick that it will take to land Garoppolo is needed in other areas. Address the situation once Brees starts to decline, or decides he wants out.

Re: RUMOR CENTRAL: Saints to Trade for Jimmy Garoppolo?

Garoppolo could be a hot commodity given the next draft class. The list of potential FA QB's are full of known commodities past their prime or mediocre players. I can see a half dozen teams kicking the tires on this guy and we would have to give up a bundle. I can totally see us being interested in we 100% believe next year is Drew's last with the Saints regardless of performance. But he's still at his age way better than most QB's in the game. I say wait til next year's draft class and/or FA squad to make the decision.

Jimmy Garoppolo for Stephone Anthony?

If your rolling the dice on a young kid that is groomed in a system that is close to one you run the pats are about the only team. Drew Vs Tom as a mentor? Pretty much a Draw.

I know pats fans will warm up to the trade quickly.
