Yeah but Josh Rosen is the future in AZ. And all I really want for Christmas is Patrick Peterson.

Jacksonville has some pretty shiny players we could use for depth, as well as getting draft pick(s) back...

How long does Miami roll with "Brocktober"? Bridgewater would be great there as well...

I’d rather keep him.

Yep! Me too! I guess it depends on how much longer Drew wants to play. One year? Teddy probably stays. Three to five years? Teddy will probably not want to wait that long........

The problem is we have so few draft picks that we will probably be active in free agency and we could lose a third round comp pick. Also, our free agents are very hit and miss and I don't trust the pro scouting director to match talent to our team needs and system. We have good coaches and they help the the rookies play well, but we miss on too many free agents every year who are not a good fit.

Brees has already stated he is planning on playing several more years. I believe him. Why not? He is amazing!

That’s what I’m saying. His bones have got to be getting brittle.

That's ridiculous. I'm 61 and my bones aren't brittle. And I'm sure he has even a healthier diet than I employ.

Realistically, how many teams would trade for him?
NFC South, no way we do it
the Giants, but they are in sell mode
Mia might take a look, but they aren't going anywhere with or without
Denver, maybe?
Jacksonville might be the best possibility

only real options are in Florida
