Rare but we should, Titans preparing to release QB Zach Mettenberger.

Sean Payton and Mettenberger would be something to see in my opinion. I would absolutely love to have him down here and sit under Brees for a couple years.

I would've thought he had some trade value.

The teams he played on were pretty bad.

I'd be ok with this, even if he is LSU

The only way it would happen/make sense for us to sign him (I do like him and think he has potential to be a slightly above average starting QB potential)is if Payton thinks Grayson is not the answer or that Mett is just head and shoulders above Grayson. No matter what kind of insight any of us think we have, the only people to really have an idea on that is the coaches from Grayson's practice.

I'd like to see Mett go to either San Diego or Arizona to sit a couple years behind Rivers/Palmer. Each QB has similar traits/build to Mett, are established good starters that Mett could sit behind and learn for a year or two until they retire.

I don't see the harm in bringing Mett in. He's got starting experience and has had absolutely nothing around him in Tennessee. At worst, I think he could be a very formidable backup.

he's slow afoot and has a slow release. He'd be a terrible fit for this offense. I do like his talent tho

He's worth about a 6th/7th round pick to the right team. For us, he isn't even worth a 7th. He has no place on this team with our 3 current qb's. I assume his agent would advise him to go to a team where he would have a chance at making the roster.

I love Zach dude had incredible guts and worked his arse off to get legitimately better in a short time. With that being said I'm not sure he will ever have a quick enough release to really run SP's offense.

If at no real cost, then sure give him a look

I don't understand why people would think this is a good idea. Even when staffed with serviceable players, over the past few years the offense has depended on Brees' ability to avoid pressure, step up into a collapsing pocket, and make multiple reads. Mettenberger has shown no ability whatsoever to avoid pressure or make the multiple reads that have been a hallmark of Brees in Payton's offense.

NFL Live on ESPN had Zach Mettenberger in their top three available QB's. But, they questioned why he was released. They speculated lack of motivation and personality as the potential problems. They did say that some OC may feel his talent is worth the risk and opt to try and fix him.
