Obviously different sports but there is a connection with agility, accuracy, intelligence with QB and tennis.

Yes. Brees was the top ranked player in the state of Texas and beat future professional Andy Roddick twice in tournaments.

I would take Rosen over Bridgewater in a straight up trade. Know it won't happen but man, the kid has potential for a long time. Behind a Good line he's going to kill it.

This close to the draft, everything we've read or heard could be a smokescreen.

The coach that drafted Rosen is gone. I’m sure the new coach wants his own guy. Rosen has a really high ceiling. He’d be a good fit here in New Orleans. I’m still hoping Teddy pans out with another year learning the offense. If we traded for Rosen I’m positive Teddy walks next year. However, competition is part of the NFL. If we made a move for him I wouldn’t be upset.

Could you imagine Brees retiring then we get Rosen who starts putting up Brees numbers. It would be the nastiest NFC South QB transition in history. We'd be set for another 15 years.

It's only one season...

Remember, Brees was a mediocre play-action pass QB until he got to New Orleans. Nearly losing his ability to play, coupled with the devastation of H. Katrina he witnessed, gave him focus, perspective, made him who he is...

In all my years of watching football, I can tell you that of all the great players, maybe four or five were truly great in spite of the coach, the rest needed the right coach, system, and timing for it to fall together...

Do you really think Tom Brady or Joe Montana have the success they have with another team, another system, another coach?

You still could be right but as it stands now he needs a new team to even give himself a chance.

I would give our 2nd and a 6th for him and a 4th. Zona will be begging people to take him. Then turn around and trade TB for a 3rd or 4th.

We already have two starting QB's
Other than a straight up trade for Teddy, what would we do with him?
