Is it time for the Saints to get serious about Brees' replacement?

He becomes FA in 2017 - is the upcoming draft a good time to trade up and get his replacement? He appears to be entering tdecline (though still the best in the pathetic NFC South) from the games I've watched and this is confirmed by Saints Talk - I assume the fans over there are mostly diehards and have been watching him closely. Seems like everyone agrees he is no longer elite.

I wouldnt focus on it this offseason. His decision making is the biggest question mark, not his arm.

Someone to groom or someone to replace him immediately?

We need offensive lineman

It's way past time now

They need to either demand he renegotiate his horrendous contract or draft his replacement and force him out in 2 years.

I agree with this.. But to say he is washed up is absurd..............

With the way the season is going, we could probably trade down and still get a replacement.

Shane Carden outta ECU would be a good fit imo

I wouldn't focus on it, but if an Aaron Rodgers situation occurs in the draft and the perfect guy fell to where the Saints are drafting then they should do it. Brees's biggest problem this season is the O-line is not giving him a great pocket and he is rushing throws that he would not have. CSP needs to use that 10-15 pick this year on a can't miss O-lineman.
Actually most of them are rantards that just circle jerk each other.

A QB's true decline (or at least the one which there is no hope of coming back from) is when his arm starts to go.
Brees' arm is just fine, he is just making uncharacteristically bad decisions this season. He used to be the master of the wide open checkdown to the back, now he seems to be pressing the ball downfield too much.

I'm so jealous of the Colts

Too many issues on the team to blow a top 10 pick (or worse, to trade up and blow HELLA picks a la the falcons w/ Julio) on a QB now. Even with his regression over the last 2 seasons Brees is still playing at a top 10 level (he was like 24 of 30 for 310 and 2 TDs at one point today). They're better off just focusing on getting better everywhere else right now. When the time comes to move on, we can always get rid of him, tank 1 bad year and then draft the guy... At least then the guy is surrounded by talent and doesn't end up like Matt Ryan.
