Re: Saints Trade for Teddy Bridgewater

While I have no problem with the deal I don’t think he’s the future. He will be a journeyman throughout his career. Good enough to get a team with a good defense and running game along for a year or two until they find their franchise guy. Worth the gamble.
I could be wrong, I wanted Culpepper instead of Brees so what do I know.

Wrong. Teddy isn't a journeyman ... he's 25 & on his 3rd team as a result of a unfortunate injury with the JETS, Jets, Jets making like decisions (starting a rookie who didn't look better than the vet in Pre season). Teddy is also a former Pro Bowl player (in his 2nd season). His SECOND NFL season.

Mikey Loomis and the front office aren't idiots. If he leaves (I don't think he will) in FA after next year, we will get the Jets 2020 3rd round pick. Of course there's no guarantee but I'm confident Teddy B will be a Saint for a while.

End rant .

I agree in my opinion I think Teddy found a home here.

I hate the fact that the Saints only have one pick in the first two days of the draft but this looks like a no brainer, a pro bowl quarterback for a third round pick. Outstanding!

Well let's be real. It's a 1 year rental and backup QB insurance for a 3rd round pick. It's possible that Bridgewater never plays a down for the team and is gone next year.

But if the team can convince him to learn the offense and give him the opportunity to take over when Brees rides off into the sunset, presuming that Bridgewater is healthy, it'll be quite a coup.

And have to give him a 5yr/$100m contract though.
