When we win it all this year he'll just have to bring home number three.

Re: Saints Trade for Teddy Bridgewater
I knew that we were going to sign a QB. Getting Bridgewater for a third is an insurance policy that could pay big dividends. For certain you are unlikely to get a player at QB with as much upside as Teddy where we will be picking in the third RD. I like the move now we need to find a TE

How much longer will Cam Jordan be elite? Ingram probably won’t come back next year. Unger has a couple years left. We might not even bring Peat back. Kamara will get his money. Thomas will get his money. Lattimore and Williams will get theirs. Those are our premier, young players. We have plenty of time. That’s what these GM’s get payed to do. |

Re: Saints Trade for Teddy Bridgewater
Payton has been learning from Bill B and the Patriot way
I was miffed when we traded Brandon Cooks but look how well that worked out And the Patriots flipped him Bridgewater is a low cost insurance policy And legit answer to life after Brees |
