I think Sean Payton would stay beyond Brees. A QB struggle may lead him to look elsewhere.

(I know! Draft can't get here soon enough.)

If he drafts Brees' replacement, he'll stay anyway. That is not a reason to drop a 1st rounder on a guy to sit for 2 years when you say you want to win now.

Bryce petty can be had in the 2nd or 3rd rd. But he would be a good get in the 2nd or 3rd IMO.

Everyone keeps trying to tie this to the Favre/Rodgers scenario, but there is a huge difference between their situation and the Saints' with Brees.

Favre simply was non-committal and consistently contemplating retirement right when Rodgers fell in their laps. He was a security blanket in regards to Favre. They lucked out that the timing worked, but it's not like the same thing is present with Brees.

Upside is we can give him a 5th year option to solidify the back-up role for the next 5 years.

Biggest upside of selecting Petty at 31... Is not selecting in the top 5 after Drew retires. Everybody knows he's getting older and we don't have a replacement for him. Management know this

Just stop! This is trade bait guys! Its not an accident that all this shite just came out yesterday. They want someone like the Jets to bite on it to move back into the 1st round and they can pick up more picks for just moving back 6 spots.

If we draft Petty at 31, it's for trade bait

I don't think CSP passes on a guy to help win now to take a guy who may help him stay later.

Draft day!!!!

So stupid

Let's wait 3-4 years on a player to "maybe" play.
