Won't happen.

The thing that makes it unrealistic in my opinion is Saints getting a #14 overall pick for Reggie Bush lol.

edit- actually after that AWFUL trade Seattle made for Whitehurst, I can actually see it happening loool

The Saints love Reggie. They have done nothing to give anyone the impression that he is going anywhere.

And for all the hate he gets on this board, he averaged a whopping 5.6/carry and scored 8 TDs in the regular season last year. And he is a great receiver out of the backfield. And he scored 3 TDs in the playoffs. And he is Sean Payton's first pick ever, and Payton wants him to succeed.

So while he is never going to win a popularity contest on the Huddle, he is a very good player that the Saints find pretty valuable, and he is not going anywhere.

Saints would be trading Bush + a #32 overall for the #14 overall and Julius Jones.. I don't think the Saints are getting a bargain.. they must really have their eye on someone to move up the draft like that.

As an Eagles fan, I don't think the #32 for Mcnabb is bad at all and wouldn't view that as being "owned". I was thinking a high second/late first would be more than fair and almost wishful thinking. In fact, Philly might throw a parade if that happened.

People tend to overate the value players in "player for picks" trades. You have to take into consideration the length of the contract remaining and cost of that contract, direction and needs of the teams involved, etc.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
