Don't know if I want to see him in a Saints jersey, but he would do well somewhere else. I heard a rumor of him going to the 49ers. With the talent there, he could flourish. Entirely different organization.

I pointed this out in another thread. Atlanta is stuck with Matt Ryan at least through the 2022 season because of his recent contract. He would cost the Falcons around $50 million in dead money if they cut or trade him next season. They would still take around a $25 million cap hit if they waited until 2022. He'd still cost them about $8 million in dead money in 2023, but that's the first year it would even be feasible.

We get the pleasure of facing Ryan as a Failclown at least four more times.

I’d rather have him than Winston.
