Saints are in fire sale mode. If the Bills think they are in win now mode, might as well go all in.

This may be possible. They now have 2 first round picks and they met with Winston at the combine.

I like your thinking, but they just said on NFL Network that Brees is the only piece not on the table

If the bills get brees I will run naked down my street covered in honey and let every neighborhood dog lick it off.

Are there any rumors about this at all?

Are we just speculating?

Man this would be unreal.

What would you guys give up? Next years first and 3rd, and then the year afters 1st as well? It would be a lot.

There is no way Brees gets traded. It would be like the Pats trading Brady. It just isn't going to happen.

Total speculation and wishful thinking -- I don't think Brees is even on the block, just tuned into NFLN myself.

I highly doubt the Saints move Brees.

Although it wouldn't surprise me if they package their now 2 firsts to attempt to get Mariotta as an eventual replacement.

He looked rough last year, he is average at best when forced to play in bad weather, and his contract would be near impossible to take on. No thanks.

They just stripped him of his favorite weapon and released one of their best OL.

Why wouldn't they entertain a 2nd round pick for Brees?

More ammo to trade up for Winston or Mariota.

They just bolstered their o-line by getting Unger.

Brees looked bad last year because the o-line play was atrocious.

True. But its possible they did that to run the ball better for whatever rookie QB they want.

Remember, this team has major holes on D and they likely want picks to re-build the team.

But you could be right also.

Those numbers are inflated by throwing from behind and being in tons of shootouts. They had a losing record and he struggled more than he has in any season. The guy is one of the greats of his generation, but he would not be the same player outdoors in Buffalo.

People said the same about Peyton not being able to throw in Denver weather.

He wouldn't be the same player here because of the o-line play.

Well, he'd look like he did last year not 2-5 years ago.

Yup. If we are going to spend huge money on a player, he needs to be a o-lineman. It's unreal how this team (and its fans), time and time again, thinks that it can pick up a bunch of stud skill position guys, neglect the line, and everything will turn out okay.

Yet the team has evidenced its ability to win consistently with mediocre QB play . . . .

below 5K yards and 33 TD's is a down year for Brees. He sucks.

If you think 5,000 yards, 33 TDs and 97 QBR is rough then I don't know what to tell you.

For Drew Brees it is.

so this officially seems to be dead and not realistic.

posting this as a hope to give us a chance on such a trade.

Well, it was though anyway. They don't intend to be a passing team. It's not all about the qb anymore, they're purposely engineering a running team.

Or it could be like the Colts releasing Peyton Manning.

* Bump.... Only because the Saints are trading their team away

Their guard Grubb has been traded to the Chiefs for a 5th round pick

Now they are looking for suitors for Kenny Stills who is 23 and coming off a good year

They're taking their offense apart... Brees must be upset

Seems like they are trying to piss off Brees. Basically telling him since he won't take a pay cut they'll move out his offensive support and build the defense.

I can't see how a decent chap who has got millions a year for many a year, who will continue to get same from the Saints as well as his considerable endorsement $, can possibly be angered. :surf:

He already has. I'd be surprised if he's interested in taking a pounding with some other franchise to do it again. Unless NO wants to suffer a tremendous cap it by cutting him, he will continue to roll in the dough next season with players who know that to protect him is to keep their own bread well buttered.
