IMO Taysom Hill is not that guy. You hear all of the talk "the next Steve Young is already in the building" .. what 2 years now? If he was in the building, why didn't he start over 2 Glove Teddy during that stretch when #9 was out?

My hope is that we draft a QB in April. The time is NOW to draft the heir apparent to Brees. Is it Jalen Hurts? Jordan Love? Justin Herbert? Montez?

I want Hurts even though I’m not sure he’s the answer. And like I said, I’m warming up to Tua. I just know we need to address the position now.

I believe the QB position will get addressed early in the draft. Hurts body of work at the highest college level speaks for itself. Are we patient enough to "develop" him though? To be continued ...

As for Tua ... assuming his medical checks out ok and he has an impressive Pro Day, I think he's gone top 15.

I'm keeping an eye on Jordan Love as a potential Saints pick.

Yeah...

When I saw some mock drafts throwing a QB our way I thought that was ridiculous, but the more I ponder it, even with Hill there he is already 32. Hill might only last 3 years with how he plays. A QB late or early next year might be likely.

I've heard that Love isn't a plug and play type talent right now. Supposedly some think he has a high upside, but is still very raw and because of that a risk as a first rounder. If he to fall to the second round I could see the value, but I would rather see someone in the first round that could help immediately.
