Saints met with top QB prospect Cam Ward; Cam Ward: “It would be a dream of mine to play for the Saints” [Saints may inquire about trading up for Cam]

This might be as close as we get to drafting a high profile QB prospect. @9 we would give up some draft capital to move up but if you land a top future QB u do it. I can live with not having a 1st rounder for a couple years and some other picks if it means we got a franchise QB. Plenty of talent in rounds 2-7 to get by. We need a star qb

1. Getting Brees to sign here (thanks Miami team doc)
2. Him having the success he did here
3. Him saying and resigning multiple times and playing as long as he did here after initially coming over in 2006

Those things do NOT happen, almost ever. Point of the story is….vast majority of the time you’re going to have to draft your franchise QB. Just look at whoever you consider the top 7-10 QBs today are and how they got to those teams. If we feel Ward is legit, give up 9 and whatever else it takes to make it happen. If you don’t have your QB, you’re going nowhere.
