But I don't give Payton much credit for taking that chance. What were his other options? Keeping Aaron Brooks another year? Drafting Vince Young? Matt Leinart? Maybe Jay Cutler?


Payton made it pretty well known that if the Saints weren't getting Brees/Culpepper that they were trading with Dallas to get Romo.

Mahomes preferred Andy Reid over playing for Sean Payton and getting mentored by Drew Brees?


Not so much he didn't want to play for Payton but he wanted to play for Reid. Here's him talking about it..

aban took a calculated gamble and whiffed. He's blamed it on the doctors over the years, which is also convenient. But most coaches would have probably looked at Brees' medicals and passed, too. I've always thought he's protested too much about that.



people bashing that decision are almost all using hindsight.

here's your choices and their stats over their previous 5 full seasons):

QB A (coming off knee injury):
64% completions ; 18,598 yds, 129 TDs

QB B (coming off major surgery to his throwing arm):
62% completions ; 12,348 yds ; 80 TDs

What exactly was Peyton’s mistake? KC traded up to the pick before the Saints in order to draft Mahomes.


He kept running his mouth about wanting Mahomes. If he would’ve shut up, and not tipped his hand, he would’ve had him.

he ran his stupid mouth and told a bunch of chatty kathys that he wanted maholmes, and thats the only reason KC traded up to get him.

its just like ditka saying he would give up all his draft picks for williams, and then tried to trade up, and imagine that, telling everyone you are desperate means you have no power to negotiate and so that stupid big mouth idiot cost us all our picks
