Everyone has been talking about the Saints being more of a run team to prolong the life of Brees. We trade cooks for a rd 1 this year and mutiple next. Dreaft LF7 at 11 and defense with the other rd1 and 2.

But is Payton going to actually run the ball more?

If he wants to keep Brees he will. No way Brees can continue this pace more than 2 more years. Drew attempted 676 passes last year. Ryan was right at #2 with 534. That's a big difference

Why? look at Brees' sack and times hit last year. Way down. Plus he took every snap. Our really "bad" o-line was 5th in sacks against in '16 and 8th in '15

Because he is 38 and threw 100 more balls than any other qb last year.
