Josh Rosen

draftfreak said

I personally would love to see the Saints send a 6th or 7th round pick to Miami for Josh Rosen. I would love to see him learn under Payton and grow - this would give us Josh and Taysom going forward. I'm not terribly interested in Andy Dalton, Cam Newton, or Jameis Winston. I guess a mid round pick on a QB is very possible, but this just seems to make sense.

What do you guys think?

I like Josh and would love to have him.

I also think the saints need an additional quarterback that can play if something would happen to Drew during game time. I thought we would look at someone like Chase Daniel, Colt McCoy or Kase Keenum. But after Teddy's contract last year, the salaries for career backup have climbed.

The saints will bring someone, but I think it will be only after the draft, for two reasons:

- Right now the market has vanished. Cam Newton and Jameis Winston are there, but will be commanding relatively high salaries even at a back up position. The market will be refreshed after the draft. Teams that pick rookie quarterbacks tend to released an experienced backup, and then we can take an opportunity that won't exist today.

- We only have five picks. If we can trade some of our current assets (not likely) or even trading down, then we may consider calling Miami and see if they are willing to do business with us.

So, it is my believe someone will come, but it won't happen until after the draft.
