Might be a good back up for Brees and eventual replacement if he can learn a thing or two about pocket presence. I still think the guy can play and do well in a non-dumpster fire situation.

Thanks for the compelling reply and further for the sound discussion.

I like where you are going with this. I mean he did declare himself the best QB in the league.

I dont want a media circus and neither do most of the fans or the coaches. He's injury prone and brittle. We already drafted Grayson as an heir to Brees (ideally). etc.

had we not drafted the grayson project, it would be an entertaining thought.

Grayson contract > RGIII contract

Grayson & RG4 performance in preseason > RGIII performance in preseason

No media circus > RGIII media circus

So what possible reason do we have for wanting to pick him up?

Well, if he goes on waivers, the Saints need to clear about 200,000 to just fit him under the cap. Then he can backup Drew Brees.

We'd have to hope he didn't get injured though because that would guarantee his 16+ million dollar salary for 2016 (guaranteed for injury)!!

So if RGIII clears waivers, he'd need to want to come here. And sit behind at least Drew Brees remaining tenure and possibly be Grayson's backup after that.

He's probably not coming here in any likely circumstance.

So we are supposed to justify your horribly stupid question with "sound discussion"?

The Saints should not be firing weapons at anyone.

RG3 wouldn't fit Payton's style of offense. He's better off going to Philly, KC or NY/Buffalo

The Saints are playing in the smallest market in the league. There's almost nothing we could do to attract a media circus.
