Teddy was the highest paid backup in the league and he earned his money on the field. He also earned a nice contract. The question that I have is what is the value of a Swiss army knife compared to a valuable proven backup QB?

Taysom's completion rate is not all that great and some of his passes were off target but somehow our receivers came down with the ball. I anticipate seeing more passes from Taysom to look less predictable and Drew handing the ball to a running back for an even distribution of the ball. Taysom is a mismatch everywhere he lines up except maybe at QB. We just don't know.

I'm hoping that he knows he's loved and valuable in New Orleans and signs a nice long reasonable contract to stay here for the long term. He's got a solid role and is better loved than half of the QB's by their respective teams.
